8v vs 16v eh! RE: 16v body kit questions



yeah like in rice movie all kids ran to 2 summers ago (forget the name),
*Fast and Th Furious* #2 comming out this summer I believe.

an 8's Quarter Mile dragster versus an impreza.. suuuuureee it would be 
close. Not.!

First, it was a Supera. And think of the mods done to both. Plus the supera 
was on the bottle. No bottle in the Charger.

Peace Out,
Rhett

'83 Rocco (autocross ready, tune up, harness bar, rear wheel bearings, and 
finally I may get to makeing it look better!!)
