if you looking for speed,
think again, not with the awd, the fwd has a little more pep, not much tho
but their are some minor mods that can be done,
decat, lightened pulley, k&n to increase performance slightly
you all can search here in this section for mods to a ts or check

Tr1ad is right.
Performance wise.
95BHP (not WHP) which is about 75-80WHP for AWD Manual 1600cc Imprezas
Automatic Transmission = less WHP
Mods such as K&N Drop, decat and exhaust upgrades and Lighten pulley would increase performance in acceleration and some WHP.
FWD like Tr1ad would have more HP since power goes to 2 wheels and not 4 like AWD.
Otherwise Buy a turbo charged subaru or turbo the TS. |

^^Really!!! Has that specific turbo kit been confirmed as being SAFE for TS's with auto transmissions?
AFAIK that kit hasn't been used locally.....and trusting a manf'rs claim seems a bit naive.
The only way is to try and see

Yeah.
Right.
Like it's that simple. It's more than just a swap. THis topic has been beaten to death time and again.
And as I always say....if I had a penny for every TS owner who was "goin an swap eeeen ah EJ20 Towbow engine......"
Well.............  |

the stock transmission can be used however to be safe install an electronic cooler system. |
