originally, i wanted to put a vf39 and such to get around 300whp . if i want more power, i agree it would make more sense to just trade for an STI and mod that. I'm at Stage 2 now and from what i've read at nasioc, a few people who've broken their 3rd on 06 wrxs were at least Stage 2 and/or have done some drags. I'd like to keep my WRX as long as i can but obviously i'm going to have to drive the way i think WRX's are NOT meant to be driven. And i'm definitely not going to add any more power mods. since adding my current mods, i'm just too attached to my car now to trade it for an STI. it's seems RA's would be my best choice. right now i feel like it's inevitable my gears are going to go with my current setup no matter how careful i am. if all is good in a year, RAs for piece of mind.
