See anyone else getting bent out of shape besides you ? Who is stirring up trouble with the smart ass comments ?

And I am glad you have seen a Ford running boost up close and personal . As I said before and anyone else with a brainstem knows install the Lightning pulley on a Cobra and instant huge h.p. gains, no e.c.u change, fuel, etc.. Would changing these things help even more ? Sure.

And I would pimp a Focus RS any day so do not generalize all domestic drivers as mullets, some of you import crybabies hate it when domestic owners do it to you. I am pretty sure Ryan knows I respect his car and it is a import right ?

Now go get over yourself because your not impressing me any and you are looking like a tool.

Smart ass posts? I've seen you post here and on other threads and your general attitude seems to be "let's stir the pot". Now, I can appreciate a littel sarcasm and I enjoy a good joke, but you came to this forum and started denigrating the STi when no one had said anything negative about the Cobra. I STILL haven't said anything negative about the Cobra. It's a horses for courses issue and you may not want to be characterized as a mullet, but you're behaving like one.

You've got more of a history on this board and some good people speak highly of you, but you're carrying yourself like the typical, "I hate imports. Imports=rice" mulleteer so many of us with a foot in the import scene are used to encountering. I have some good friends in the mullet world and do not generalize. I've even had some communications with you previously and you seemed like a cool enough individual, but you're the one acting like a tool here. I'm just trying to counter your negativity. I can appreciate the strengths of the Cobra, I just happen to enjoy the STi more. None of this was going on in this thread until your first post. That speaks volumes from my vantage point on the situation. You can PM me if you'd like to take this off the thread.

Seems like this started it but I guess I am just a dumb

Funny part is I have as many if not more import friends on TR than

friends. And I think it is stupid that anyone still classifies the members on here by these two categories.

Call me crazy but it seems many (not all) of the import people seem to draw this conclusion more than the domestic people, much like this thread.

Oh well I am done with the bickering, now how about those Imprezza wagons ? They have to be faster than a Mach 1.

You know me scott, if I could ditch this over priced piece of "quality" ford engineering..i would.. in favor of a nice 2.5RS or Impreza Brighton to build. I notice your not using a modern ford to build for your race car.. same as I wouldnt use a modern Subaru

Well that is becasue I think the mod motors are not as strong as the old 5.0's for the exception of the very well built '03 Cobra motors which seem to handle 600+ h.p. without sneezing.

Why not use the modern stuff? The old STi blocks, conrods and pistons were all weaker than the present day equivalent. Zate, I saw your mug beaming from ear to ear when you were looking at that STi a couple of months ago. You know you want one.
