Micah, I'm sensing "FAIL"

You know Subaru's better than I do. Something seems wrong here? Look at this vid and tell me whats wrong with this picture. I think I know, but I want your expert Subaru opinion.

Re: Micah, I'm sensing "FAIL"

It appears to be a wrx with a cone filter and turbo back exhaust. I like the commentary...."It has an intake"(part he touches is stock). "It has a really good intercooler"......stock wrx top mount, which sucks balls btw.


I don't know if he's talking 260whp or crank. But a turboback will get you around 215-220awhp.

Re: Micah, I'm sensing "FAIL"

1. Its not an STI

2. It has a Top Mount with a reverse cowl hood. Great move there buddy. I bet he gets heat soak like a ***** in 5 minutes flat.

Re: Micah, I'm sensing "FAIL"

Either that or the CEL says "put the right hood on here, retard."

But yeah, the hood/top mount thing is what I noticed and was like
