welcome Tom, good luck with the built if you're really into it, but like tuna said, better buy a WRX.

I agree with the above statements too Tom. I started out in an 06 GX Impreza and looked at ways to turbo it. In the end, I sold it and bought an 02 STI. Was a much smarter move.

Howdy!

I have a non-turbo Impreza too.. best bet (like these guys said) is to buy a built WRX, or if you have a little time & some money then you could look at a swap out of a wrecked WRX/STi or a kit for it.

Welcome Tom,

Best be saving your hard earned for a wrx/sti, well worth the pennies

Enjoy the car and the forums
