This is totally fair. And is great to be able to customize to whatever your goals are. There are clear paths to performance or appearance, and much in between. I wanted a balanced approach, which was the stock approach to the Trailhunter, so I don't expect to do much more than gear management...

I 100% agree. There's a lot more to it, and I like that. But really, he's the first to actually break it all down and disect it, not just talk about it. You can see all the pieces, and he walks through all the tradeoffs and decisions you need to make as an owner looking to spice up their...

Brother!! Nice!! Those are some sassy subies! They're great, so easy to work on. I did the STi build myself. Got a deal on the WRX through the local tuner. Fun stuff, but went for the Wilderness after the WRX got rod knock :cry:
