before you leave read this article..
http://www.lightstormimages.com/gall...ngs_protec.doc
It explains downforces. Why theres no wings on the front of cars and how it all actually works. It was written by scientis and engineers. It will explain and show you how wings actually work and what vortex generators do. How the hood and front facia of the STI are designed to provide adquate downforces etc etc...
I'm still cracking up about how only rear wheel drive need rear wings. Because when you take a corner on a track at 100+mph in a front wheel drive it doesnt matter if the air under the car is about to lift it off the ground and throw you into a wall right? lol....idiot

There is no air getting in there. It is simply letting air get into the engine bay which is like cutting a whole out of a hood. It does nothing. You have to buy a kit, usually the BG kit for a WS6. I had a different one for my Z28 that would take air from the ground. The hood is nonfunctional.
Tasteful body kits? I guess that is in the eye of the beholder. There is more bodywork on a WS6 than there is on an STi. Fact. BTW, the STi hood scoop IS functional. Learn about the car before you talk. The car has a top mounted intercooler. You are always wrong, aren't you?
Typical ricer response. I ask again, why do you keep coming back?
100% wrong. The trams-am is a nicer version of a Firebird. Which is a ponycar. Read what pon cars are. The V8 version were the special version. Just like the STi is the special version.

im clueless how am i clueless. all im saying is that V8s have much more potential then 4 cyl's. i never said anything, to my knolage, that was in acurate. please tell me how I am a clueless idiot. is it not true that that the cobra SVT is a faster more powerful vehical. over any four cylender out there. i have heard of, ok now dont rag on me for bringing up F Bodies, older camaros running with up to 800 HP witch lifts the entier front off the ground, now that power ive never heard of from a 4 banger. i wont despute the fact of practicality of the evo/sti compared to a V8 coup but when talking about performace from sports cars there is noting like a V8. and i guess its not that i HATE then i just figure why spend all that money when u can get a better car for less. and if practicality is waht you want why spend so much.

So the hood is in fact functional, if it was nonfunctional then that would mean that no air is inducted through it.
There is the airbox. Guess where the air comes in from? Not from the hood scoop that is for sure. Don't believe me? Ask anyone worth a penny at ls1tech.com.

The STI is merely an Impreza family sedan with a turbo motor, when the Impreza was first designed they didn't even consider a performance version. Same is true for the Evo, the first one was merely a piece of **** base model Lancer with a turbo. Actualy the new one still is a piece of **** base model Laner with a turbo, they just changed the front end styling and added a bunch of tacky appearance mods

I'm old school
I don't know why you got banned Quest. I'm finding out right now. But once I do, I will more then likely ban you again. If you got banned mistakenly, then you PM the moderator and explain yourself, and he will lift your ban. You don't sign back up again under a different name and then keep being a dork.
Oh and WS69? DC52NV isn't the only guy banning your ass.
Closed.
