    My 6 cylinder makes 1250 lb/ft of torque.
    However, since the person in question has been a part of the national Subaru community for a very long time and a very active supporter of Subaru enthusiasts I felt it should get some mention here as well. Tom from Kartboy recently went in for chest pain and ended up with a quadruple bypass. His thread on Nasioc is here:

    To help him out, the guys at Turn In Concepts are selling a special version of the Kartboy barcode sticker, pics of which can be found at:

    If Tom's insurance covers everything, the money collected is going to a heart association. This is a great chance to reach out and help a Subaru guy who's helped out many of us. Here's to hoping Tom is up and running around in no time and including plenty of candy in our next parts order :)

    Being that I work for a medical device company, I figured I'd also help out. Plus it'll be another sticker to the toolbox

    my best friends twin brother died on the operating table while trying to repair his heart. :emo: I was really young and did not comprehend it. luckily my problem is not serious so I am told no surgeries needed at this point.
