Get back to work Subaru. :P

the SRT4 is a cheaply put together car as reflected in the pricetag. the turbo and manifold are one piece (to save cost), and the exhaust is already muffler-less - can't really upgrade that. the Forester could easily be modified for more power, i doubt the SRT4 will be able to be modded without a lot of grief using that turbo set-up.
have you seen what the JDM STi's 2.0L engine puts out - Subaru DID their homework, but they're not about to make the Forester the fastest car they sell.
