3. Your opinion is noted.

1. To me it's nothing, I've built a port injected, open deck motor with 11.5:1 static c/r and 11psi PSI on a supercharger, that was EASY to tune. With DI it'll be easier. I don't need to explain why I think a certain component can't handle it. I'm not trying to make you a believer.

2. Wasn't that I cared, but it was for the 2 member who mentioned Cobb, and I know they wont touch it unless it's factory boosted. I don't have hopes and dreams, I know what is coming, everything I've said in the beginning of the year has been true. My only gripe was that the base Subaru wasn't low output factory turbo to the high output in the STI variant because of the agreement.

3. It's a fact, the R56S MINI outperforms a Civic Si in almost every category. That's a 1.6L small twin-scroll turbo vs a high output K20xx(which you could say is like the FA20). Then add a $795 mod(ALTA/COBBAP) and it will demolish it in all categories, with that mod it also becomes a Lotus hunter, given they are both on the same tire.
