QBERT you must be joking me. Quit thinking of combacks with no solid GROUND. First off SUBARU has light years of tech over Dodge anyday in everyway. Not only does Subaru build better cars but they've always built TURBO Cars. Sure dodge has had a few turbo cars in there history, but to make a comment like that, you must be on some CRACK!!! Secondly if referring to WHP, hello the Subaru puts power to all 4 wheels and so reason for lower HP numbers. A AWD has an off the line advantage and track advantage (did I mention wet conditions as well), where as the FWD has better top speed advantage. For an AWD to make up for the lack of top speed accelaration it needs to make much more hp to match that of a FWD.

When it comes to the amount of HP/TQ the Dodge is making compared to the Subaru, did it ever dawn on you that it could be as simple as the Factory simply opted for higher boost levels to achieve there goals....Something any Manufacter with a developement of a Turbo has the option to do

Just wait till Subaru sends out there new WRX which claims out there suggest around 300hp, and that's from the FACTORY!!!

This is a little off subject, but I went to check out these new neon's the other day and they are complete junk. Cheaply made and they don't even have power windows in the rear. They wouldn't let you test drive them until you went through an ass load of paper work. They have special salesmen that are trained to sell this car. I kept saying in my head "it's still a neon!@".

YEP! You're right, that is why they are such great rally cars. Teams don't have to spend more then $1000 to get them setup to run. Man, if only I would have bought one I could have put 4-5K into it and been running 6's down the drag strip!


GET REAL!





Yea...you are right I am wrong....its not like I own one or anything.....


People suck. Rev it till it MELTS.....

id rather have the wrx for a phrase mad up of 6 words "the beauty of all wheel drive" and if i remember correctly the wrx runs at a lower boost than the srt and MBC(manual boost controllers) are not that expensive

You've got the idea !!! I would never choose a FWD Turbo of any kind over a respectable AWD Turbo Platform though I will take a RWD Turbo Platform over an AWD Turbo Platform, aka, Supra TT and Silvie SR20DET.

So much for any of my preferred choices. I currently drive a FWD Turbo DSM .......I guess I know that I'll always win the top speed race
