I could buy a WRX for the cost of that swap and probably out run the wagon with an STi motor LOL. I don't know how much more I could have gotten out of the wagon. Perhaps a better RT, but even if I nailed the RT I still would only run 17.2s maybe. MY RT on that last run was .835, first two were over a second. Partly me going on green, and partly me holding the car with the footbrake, which likely wasn't needed. I just ran it for a laugh more than anything. My next option would have been to launch at 4500 or 5000, and I would still have that problem of having to get 4th.....
Well I did it for laughs and to have fun and didn't break anything or burn the clutch so there we go. I'll look at the GTA do the Island tech on it and see how it looks. I will likely need to do something about that fan to hold it tight on the radiator support up top. Other than that its that exhaust tip rattle on the body. Nothing to keep it from running IMO.
