Reminds me of a Subaru now. I wouldn't have put it on there, but at least the install looks clean. As long as you like it, doesn't matter much what anyone says.

P.S. Does this mean you weren't kidding abou the STI badge either?

Iono...a stage 3 turbo with 20 psi would push about 300 to the crank with the 222 vq30.

Ehh if you do a ratio it doesn't match up.

50 whp/ xpsi = 300 whp/20 psi
x = 3 1/3

Oh good God... Buddy, he was kidding, being sarcastic. It's spelled "I don't know" or if you are really trying to be cool "I dunno", but IONO = wetaded.

Do some research before you buy ANYTHING else for your car. Maybe even think hard before you start your car next time. You have some stuff to learn, at least a little bit. If that turbo or s/c would add 50-60 whp, for that price, don't you think we'd all have one?

I don't know if you are acting, or seriously don't have a clue whatsoever about anything car related, but either way I feel bad for you. If acting, it's pretty sad you find that amuzing, and if serious, then I suggest you read up on how cars work. This website, as well as many others will give you a little bit of an idea.

P.S. This might come off as slightly harsh, but it's for your own good. Don't get suckered into buying all these cheap "performance" gizmos eBay has to offer.
