    That is actually a really old kit. It was made for the RS, IIRC. I think by F.A.T.T.

    Nevermind you are right. That is the F.A.T. kit. I just thought it looked cool.

    I still like the rotated single turbo better. everyone wants something different i guess. like supra's for example.....they take the twin set up off for a huge single.

    This was long before the Subaru rotated system existed.

    IIRC this came out before the bugeye was released here in the US

    Ha, hope you don't get in a fender bender with that bad boy. No way insurance would believe you if you got a minor accident hand had to replace a turbo and an intercooler!

    built by Kienan and Vern at all aspects. it was an interesting car, but he was never a good tuner. I used to live down the street and hang out there - pretty cool shop.

    yea I love that car. Is there a twin turbo kit? I know that one was custom made and they talked about piecing a kit together for distribution

    Yeah, Perrin did that for SEMA, I think. It sounds RIDICULOUSLY awesome. Just like a regular boxer rumble but much more evil. It made like 500+ hp on a last minute tune, I think.
