Uh-huh.. Add $5K for the turbo, $2K for the Quaife and installation (better get a heavy-duty clutch while you're at it), and labor to install the Turbo ($2K sound fair?), and you're still tipping the scales at around $24-25K. Kind of ridiculous for a car that has a blue book value of around $8500.
There's a Subaru dealership that's got 2002 WRXs on clearance for $19,500. Use that other $4500 on mods and you'll be running 12s. 4 doors, AWD, new car, no contest.
