The SVX is a pretty heavy car with very high final drive gearing.

The cheapest way to gain performance has got to be lower the final drive. In an AWD, this will mean changes to the front and rear diffs.

We mentioned this in another thread, and apparently a Legacy set at 4.11 would not cost the earth, possibly available from a wreck.

Another trick along the same lines would be use a wheel/tyre combination that will give a lower rolling radius. Does the same thing, more acceleration, less top speed. You will not want to go too much along this road with the wheels, or they will look too small in the arches. Still, a half inch lower will make a good performance difference.

Other than that, wait till we tease out the Supercharger thread, now that we have high powered technical advice for free!!
