Right..... there is no 11 sec WRX yet, but with a bigger turbo it(no aftermarket support yet) should easily do 11's all day IMO

you could say this about a lot of cars i think. put a big turbo in a semi fast car, with the proper mods and any decent car on wheels can be fast. IMO

until there is a wrx running 11's...

Im interested how you guys know for SURE that there is no 11 sec wrx...maybe theres no 11 sec wrx thats published yet, or that you have seen anyways, but I don't see how you know for sure there are none.

true, but the way i see it, as long as i don't come across one, then i'll assume it's not there...hell, and even if it WAS there and i came across it, then i'm sure i won't see it there for long...i'd get smoked!!!

It won't be long 'till we saw some 11 sec WRX IMO
WRXss have great potentials. They are so easy to mod and so cheap to mod.
I mean, take this AWD 14.5 sec car and spend 1000 bucks you immediately have low/mid 13 second car(LS1 territory)

These things lack topend unlike Greddy "T" Supras but with the proper aftermarket support WRX's can terrorize the streets.
This car has stock turbo@14psi and also benefit from AWD.

You can make any car to go fast, but with WRX it's not as painful as our S2000ss IMO. Also the parts don't cost 1500 each like Supra parts so you dun end up breaking your back.

All that being said, I will not trade my S for 11 sec WRX though.
They are still too ugly for me.
Gimme Doege Neon SR4 turbo
