why fucking bother, matty the idiot meant 'before' not b4, type properly all the fucking letters are on your key board.

Some dude supercharged his STi in america and made 50 kws or something, stick to proven methods unless your budget is fucking huge.

Can be done, the only one I've heard of is the site listed above. Kit costs around $7000 and it gives you 139kw atw.

Waste of money. Wanna be a WRX? Buy one.

$7000? thats a hell of alot of $ for 130 odd killowatts

even 4500 grand for that other kit
not worth it in IMO
sell your car and buy a wrx. that way everything is there. no stuffing around. then you can start spending cash on real mods.

Too do a WRX/STI conversion is only about $4000. That's what I'm aiming for

Don't worry about the other guys saying don't mod the n/a do it! I kept up just fine on the wrx cruise.

Buy a ganzflow intake and K&N panel filter.

$4000 to convert impreza to WRX? Are you including brakes, suspension, rims, exhaust, interior, external cosmetics etc? or simply dropping an EJ2*T and loom/ecu into an impreza body?
If you were to get a workshop to do the conversion for you, i can imagine there'd be close to half your budgeted $4000 in labour alone.

EDIT: yikes, i didn't even think about gearbox and driveline mods... props to you if you can do a full conversion for $4000 mate.
