best test drive ever.

we just got a local subaru dealership, and the sailsmen are nice, they let you take it on the interstate, i test drove the sti, and i almost died, i din't know i was going 110, that car is sick, oh and yeah srt-4 is the only neon i would buy

wow, my local dealer forbids STi test driving. They said, cars with that kind of price tag deserve strict low mileage. I still dream I can even test it. WRX are fast too though, not STi fast, but fast.

A few nights ago, at a local racetrack, I saw an STi run the quarter mile in mid 13s. It looked real stock too, considering, they probably have the best turbo possible, which doubts the factor of a custom turbo.

i would love to have an sti how great is it to beat a mustang gt v8 with half as many cylinders it makes them look stupid.

That won't help. Unless you turn your boost DOWN. But who would want to turn boost down?

Then you haven't used an electronic boost controller before. Or even a dual stage for that matter.

With an electronic boost controller such as Greddy, you can specify the boost in EACH gear. Gradually stepping it up as you go. I think you see my point.

You know how many people crash there cars in a straight line? Back when Corvettes first came out, most of the accidents were on freeways going straight cause they floored it and spun out!!

Well the engine is in the front and when your going fast on the freeway, the back of the car skips atleast that's what I felt in a Mustang. To avoid spinnig out if you start to loose grip on a turn you should keep pressing the throttle through the turn, unless its a high end porsche (your tail can spin out if you throttle too soon).
