Its still a bogus reason to go subaru and now I also proved it! My current stock long block type 4 2.0 engine just did a 11.99 in the 1/4 and it is heavy as hell because its a street/track-day car above all.
Dyno'd at 270 FWHP or 235 RWHP (have dyno sheet and time slip to prove both!) at just 14 psi an pump gas.
Oh, and it did 32 mpg average town/freeway driving back from the track!
