I am getting a wrx in about a month and I was wondering if it is a good choice to put a system in it. Will it slow down the wrx's performance and is the alt good enough to handle the system. The system I am putting in is in my sig.

Thanks.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 
my brothers friend has an sti with a custom system with 2 12's glassed into the trunk. he also has a number of engine mods and the car is pretty damm fast. i dont think itd be an incredible lag going straight, but once u start taking quick hard turns the extra weight in the back is going to throw you off a bit. if i had a wrx, i'd put in a light system and focus more on performance.

 
who really cares //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

are you serously going to be rally racing? hell, or even racing to begin with? drive safe, and get a nice system. who cares if you can win races. its not safe for ya, just chill and bump.

go to the drag strip and borrow somone elses ride //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

 
who knows. try it out, and if ya do- solve the problem. be it crappy grounds, small wires, ect.

we cant diagnose the problem without one now can we //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

 
ive always heard bad things about wrx's stock systems, so id focus on some components first. then maybe install your sub later on if you wish.

 
if someone would like to donate a Wrx to me i would be more than happy to test the stock electrical system for you. (of coarde i keep the wrx after all testing)

 
people ask weird questions... like the car makes the system... yah there are some that are better than others (hatchback vs. single cab truck etc) but any car will take a stereo if you wire it right and it has space... my first system was 4 4" infinity kappas, 2 6x9 Bostons, and 2 JL 10W4's in a single cab 1971F250!! anything will take a stereo if your willing to tear it apart, cut a little bit of the plastic (interior), drill holes in firewalls and run heavy guage wire through the car... I could make a miata an SQ champ and a geo metro an SPL contender with enough time, money, and work!

 
yup... just make it fit... and don't cry when you take a sawzall to your brand spankin' new WRX //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
