exactly, and my engine is the weakest of the EJ series motors built by subaru.
I plan to increase the shot to 50-65 once i get my new motor in hand and run it till it dies, but I will run it at the track with atleast a 100shot hopefully more than once, ofcourse once my new motor is in.
I can't do anything crazy until I have the new motor, because i'm a broke college student, and i figure that when I graduate (2 semesters! Woot!!) I owe myself a little gift, like 10K more in debt towards my car to make it into my dream car. Student loans have better rates than i could ever hope to negotiate through a bank to finance a new(er) car, and I plan to go to graduate school to get my doctorate, and since i have government subsidized loans my loan payments will be deferred until 6 months after I graduate from grad school, which will be another 4-5 years from now... giving me ample time to start paying off the loans without any interest being taken against me, and still be cheaper than buying a new car and wind up with a car that is already superior to the new car, because the old car had all the stock stuff replaced with superior aftermarket parts.
gotta go to work now to make that money, I'm almost 1/2 way to being able to afford the new motor (3,000 for JDM FXT@ Gruppe-s.com)
thanks for the advice and encouragement/teasing, I take it all in stride and just keep smiling because my engine is still running at 165,000 miles with a 30 shot

i'm about as fast as a stock 02-03 wrx now, if i hadn't been talked out of buying the headers, I would be faster, but thats another 300+ towards the new motor
