    OH HAI!

    I got a 2003 Forester XS today. What are best turbos and BOVs to buy for most power!? I want to also put 20K HIDS on it. ALSO, what best setup for stance? Can I run an 18x12 wheels on this and does ROTA make them in that size? If so can i put 225s on them? THX

    Don't forget to turn the switch on the top of your steering column forward for 1000 Herra-u-bar-u stance nation points and better fuel economy.

    By the way, you can't put 225s on 12in rims, not enough stretch!

    How does the front end of that thing look? Thought it was odd the Auto Trader page didn't have any pictures.

    It's cool. I was worried as well, but it's rust and dent free pretty much all over. It's pretty much immaculate top to bottom. With some minor paint wear on the center cap of one or two of the wheels. Also, it's a 2.5SOHC, so the head gaskets will need to be replaced at some point this coming year. Not a huge rush, but it is on the plate.

    In all likelyhood, I'd get those wheels and some winters. But I do plan to plasti-dip it blaze green.

    Yes. It's unbelievably fast. I also am waiting to start my new job, so I can get medical coverage. Then I plan to see a doctor about the whiplash I keep getting at stop signs and lights.
