Subaru droped the bomb. I knew they would

Ok pick up a copy of the new Turbo magazine. There on the cover is a esX STi 425hp stock from the factory. Said it will run 11.9's. Holy @#$!. They will be available summer of 2005. They are being built by this guy at Easy Street Motorsports. Also for anyone with the base 300hp STi you can have it converted by Easy Street. Will be Street legal. 425hp

I saw that too. Take a look at the spelling typo engraved on the valve cover. What a moron. I hope that isn't an indication of the kind of attention to detail ESX dsubscribes to.

I know it is real easy to upgrade our Evo's to 425hp. There goes our warranty.
What car can you buy for 50K or less and run's sub 12 second quarter mile times.

-Porsche turbo=120,000
-Porsche GT3=99,000
-C6 ZO6=70,000
-SL 600 AMG=120,000+
Yes its a Subaru for 50,000K but its street legal, has a warranty. I honestly think it's a good deal.
