I agree Andy,
</swallows pride>
I've got a friend with a 2003 Japan Spec (LHD though) WRX STI, that's got
all sorts of work done to it, it's a solid mid 12 second car. Then, at the
other end of the spectrum, I've got a friend who has a Eclipse gs-t and he's
now deep into the 10's - shooting to break 9. He gets 30+ mpg on the
highway with it and about 10 - 15mpg around town if he keeps his foot out of
it. Under boost, you can almost see the fuel gauge move.
