no idea what a stage 4 feels like but I reckon it will easily be faster in the dry. Wet is a different matter though and you cant always rely on our weather. You can up the boost safely to 1.5 on this car and you will be over 400bhp without any further mods being done other than a fuel pump and bigger injectors + remap then it will be a different result however awd is not as fun a rwd which is why I want to come back.

I can vouch for Thor and his car swapping tenancies.

cheers Cliff. It will be a funny turn around if I swap back to a vx from a subaru seen as you swapped with me back in the day for your subaru for my vx 
For those that worry about these things, I put 20 in petrol last Wed. I only do 10 miles a day for work. Off on Tuesdays and Sundays. I have just under a qtr tank of fuel left. Not bad for a 350bhp scooby.

That was a strange evening indeed Jordan, I remember it well. I reckon we both drove off wondering what on earth we had done.

Surely easier to sell subaru privately and have the pick of the market with the vx.

Have some charity JG, if it wasn't for Thor, I would never have got a VX220 and none of you would ever have known me...

Yes, you would, might have been a different car.
-'Anyone want a Subaru?' 'No'.
-'Which car is faster?' 'Who cares'
-'Am i going to win the McDonald car park race?' 'Who cares'
-'I want a vx, but i can't really be bothered to go through the process of buying one.' 'Well don't buy one then'
-'Someone wants to swap! is it a good car?' 'Depends on your definition of good, here are the issues' 'They don't bother me' 'Great go for it' 'Nope, Anyone want to swap for a Subaru?' 'No'
-'Anyone want a Subaru?' 'No'.
-'Anyone want a Subaru?' 'No'.
-'Anyone want a Subaru?' 'No'.
-'Anyone want a Subaru?' 'No'.
-'Anyone want a Subaru?' 'No'.
-'Ok no one wants a Subaru, i'm off, i finally understand' 'TFFT'

Do you want to swap your VX for a Subaru James???
Nope!
Then don't read this thread. Simples!
Jordan is a nice guy and he has managed to swap his last three cars from what I understand and he is doing no harm in posting on here.

Yes, probably an Elise S1 which is what I really wanted. The VX was originally a compromise TBH
