BTW I hate my BFG KDW 2s... loud as hell for a DD. Tread life seems decent though and traction is pretty good dry/wet around town. Not sure how well they hold up at the track.. maybe someone else here does.
One thing you mentioned that could be interesting is to see how much it can be bored out and the potential gains to be had. I think previous subie 2.0 were typically pushed to 2.2. I'd really like to see 2.5. I've seen some 350Zs bored to 4.2 and TT... craziness.

The FI (assuming you mean Forced Induction) is the Rotrex unit.

I chose the O'neil rally school because they train you to drive FWD, RWD, and AWD through some of the roughest road conditions you can encounter. The skills can translate well to just about any other type of driving you can encounter. And I love rally racing
As for the Tires, I've never actually had a set of the BFG KDW's It was one of the tires that I decided on a while back, but ended up not coming in the size for my car, I think it was back when I had my protege5. That's when I ended up with a set of the Falkens which I've been using ever since. Its reasonably priced, decent grip, and doesn't wear down too fast for a street car.
How long this is going to take? Years. I'm not going to do all this at once unless I win the lottery.
