On the newer subaru's, I know its at least 25% on a dynojet. 30% is more like a mustang dyno number. Im going with 25% on my subby

For the cash, its still a VW. I dont know what has gotten into VW and thier pricing is just getting above and beyond out of hand. The new Jetta can reach up to 30k!!! 30,000 FOR A JETTA!! I dont want to get started on the Phateon.
R32 is cool, but for the cash, there are a HELL of a lot more cars I would buy over that.

theres this neon around here that is dark green and some ******* put yellow highlights all over. like on the windshield wipers, the huge pep boys wing and hood scoop, the door handles, antenna and from what i saw some of the interior. it has those lame "drift" pep boys rims, like 14in, and the best part is through the rims you can see these tiny, im talking about 7in diameter, drum brakes painted...yellow. its always up at the don pablos in deptford, i should wait until he/she gets off of work and run them over and do a burn out on their chest.
