But then I would have to replace a lot of other parts to handle all that new horsepower. So it might just get to expensive and time comsuming. Plus even if do decide to do a swap I'll have to wait a couple more years until I graduate college and start making money. So, for now I might do a couple more suspension mods (endlinks, front sway bar etc.) and maybe an underdrive pulley. But other than that I'm happy with the way the car is for now.
If you're going to do a swap I would suggest staying away from those twin turbo legacy motors. I know a guy doing the swap on WRXAtlanta (which you should join, btw ) and he's seen nothing but problems. The motor makes a ton of power, but it's notorious for being unreliable. I would go with a modern STi shortblock and the 6 speed if you want to do a swap....it'd be expensive, but you'd have the planet's biggest sleeper. If your car is already turbocharged from the factory (which idk if it is....) you could always do a vf39 (or similar) upgrade with a TMIC or a FMIC setup.

That said, I love your car. I saw it in person at this one sonic meet. It's a freaking classic. And I love the brembos!

SUBY REPS!!!
