Re: Normally aspirated engines, turbocharging or supercharging - which turns YOU on?
Well it depends on the WRX driver. For normal driving you should be on 3rd gear. But if launched properly 30 mph can also be achieved in 1st gear.
I don’t understand why people complain about WRX’s low end torque and turbo lag. I actually like the low LET because it gives me better fuel mileage under normal driving condition. I mean who actually wants to drive his car like a maniac all the time? It happens once in a blue moon when I feel like leaving rivals in dust. Especially some yuppie in BMW or Audi who paid 20,000 more than WRX pricetag yet still WRX outperforms them in speed and handling. If someone is a true performance car enthusiast, luxury, quietness and roomy interior should be the last thing on his mind.
