Vote to Seperate the WRX and STI threads!
I want to vote that i-club.com seperate the STi and 06 WRX forums. I understand that both the WRX and the STi now have the same powerplant but they are still very different cars with different challenges. With the exception of the 2.5l EJ25T, the tranny, the turbo, suspension, frame, steering, DCCD... are all different and needed to be modded differently.
Just my $0.20!

The forum is not for the whole vehicle, but just the motor. All those other "challenges" like suspension, steering, DCCD should go in the correct forums (like, Impreza suspension, transmission, brakes, interior/exterior etcetera) not a forum about the EJ25 turbo forum.

So in all seriousness, I have an FP Red on my STi and put down 360 whp, could the 06 WRX do the same? Obviously all other things being equal (support equipment - exhaust, intake, injectors, tuning)?
I don't mean to be a dick and say you don't have a good suggestion, I'm just letting you know how the site was organized.
