Yup. I'm upgrading my fuel system and headed BACK to the dyno now. But I'm starting to save for the blown engine or a grenaded transmission ill most likely have after this winter.

But if you have responsibilities and priorities.

Children, school, bills etc. Just think about those things first. You don't want your wife or kids or dog to be eating cup of noodles everyday just because you wanted a turbo haha.
Yeah no kids no wife.. lol I have a great paying job and I'm getting promoted so I really wanna do this... I'm in the process of getting a gc8 impreza as my back up car so pretty much this is just what I wanna do... I just don't have the cash saved and I want it now lol... I'm not trying to open another credit card also lol ...thanks for understanding

Do you want a backup car or mods? It sounds like you want everything.

That GC8 is going to have issues of it's own; it's a 12+ year old car now.

Why in the hell would you finance a 10 year old cat? I'm pretty sure I can get you a newer one for free.
