Sure hope you're getting the engine built!

I like the FP black recomendation. FP is literally down the street from us and COBB Plano.

Yeah, Fuji made crazy power out of his Black, and having ridden in it, I can tell you first hand that it's every bit as awesome as they say it is. That being said, he's selling one, and what Fuji doesn't break, he takes awesome care of, so I'd consider it.

I'm not sure people understand the cost and build in making a true 500whp Subaru. Subaru's are not just a drop a big turbo on and go car. Drop the big turbo on top and watch the pistons go out the bottom.

People underestimate a properly built 500 hp anything that you want to last more than one run down the strip, for that matter.. heh

A properly built, "reliable" 500+whp subaru will cost you in the ballpark of about $20-25K. It varies depending on your wallet and how cheap you want to be. It could be more or it could be less. I myself like high end parts, so i spend more than i probably should. I keep my numbers pretty quiet so people cant talk shit, but im in the 450-550whp range, and i have about $28k in that motor.
