I bought this car after moving to a new area with horrific roads where my previous car just wouldn't cut it. Originally I was looking to do a rally inspired build, however, I've since pivoted to a show-esque daily.
When I originally bought the vehicle I had completely bought into the idea that any modifications to the engine would make the car grenade. In time, after tons of research, I realized there's a lot of things you can do, so long as you do them carefully and correctly to actually improve reliability, drivability, and power.
I am currently making somewhere between 320 awhp - 350 awhp and am planning on staying in this area to have a reliable, yet fun daily.
