Clearly you’ve never bought a cheap Porsche!

There’s a Snakes on a plane song? Where have I been?

So are we just ignoring the Bronco II which also came out in 83?

I always loved these, especially after face-lift, however a vehicle that large needs to be able to tow more than 4500lbs. The lack of towing ability killed any possibility of me owning one.

I think you misunderstood me, I don’t have a problem with them being called flappy Paddles, I even use the term myself.

Here I was expecting a coherent argument as to why we should stop, but then I remembered I was reading Jalopnik ...

Obviously Florida man has struck again, but I’m not sure this is worse than the guy who was high on bath salts who tried to eat another man’s face .

“This second-generation of Sport Trac featured four-wheel independent suspension and Ford’s AdvanceTrac (what does For have against the letter ‘k’?) 40/60 split AWD.”

I don’t think you understand what a Dyson sphere is...

And now I have an irrational desire own a Starion and a 3000GT again, I miss my old ones.

If someone is willing to spend $100+k on an unreliable off road capable SUV why would they buy this over a Range Rover?

You’re an idiot... Best motoring isn’t remotely what a track day looks like. You are actually going to sit there and type up all about how you know track days and then not even post a video of an actual track day? Either you don’t actually know what goes on during a track day or you’re a complete fool. Completely…

I don’t want to sit around and argue, but to me track days are ‘another problem’ as far as I’m concerned. You induce stresses in the engine almost every manufacturer doesn’t account for in testing. The ones that do are typically on track day specials with over built components to accommodate the abuse.

Turbo Subarus use MLS headgaskets and they typically don’t fail unless you have another problem. The truly weak Subaru headgaskets are the fiber based ones on the older NA 2.5 motors.

I’m sorry but you’re just not correct. Having owned a spec.B for 5 years that’s actually a fairly well thought out stage 2 car. There’s not a lot of HP to be found with an intake but it’s there. The reality is the gains are so tiny for the cost of the equipment and the necessary tuning it’s basically not worth it. Now…

But you’d still have to have air flowing backwards out the intake box for the vaporized oil from the PCV system to hit the MAF.

No, no it doesn’t. If it recircuated the bypassed air before the MAF the sensor the air would read by the sensor twice. The recircuated air is returned to the system between the MAF and the turbo. Usually with a diverter pointing the air flow away from the MAF to avoid any turbulence.

MAF fouled by oil blow by? I’m not sure how that’s even possible considering the MAF is well before the turbo. If your turbo is pushing air toward the MAF you’ve installed stuff very backwards.

Uh he’s already done the 105k service.

I’m laughing at all the CP, comments as I just sold my 08 spec.B with very similar mods with 70k on it for $18,250. The buyer was basically banging down my door asking to buy it too. A clean relatively low mileage rust free spec.B will sell for quite the premium.
