So priety much as soon as I got her I realised shes slow this was backed by my mrs laughing at me an telling me this how rude but then she does drive a subaru sti (mine used to be faster) so this was troubling me how do I make my car faster so looked at suppercharger but then thought enitial out lay for one and well ive never owned one put me off also from what I read your limmited on what power you can get from one so decided to go turbo so after looking around for months i decided t 28 turbo from a skyline or t25 would do as there straight 6 to so ended up with one of each turbos but am going to fit the t28 as there supposed to be a better turbo an what small power im going to ask of it it should handle fine so decided hell yeah go ferrit so picked sparky stavs brains and a few outhers an then got the balls to do a fpr with return line was easy in the end that was the start so ive not done the full conversion yet I have a wardrobe
