yeah i'd agree with that !!
i have a 99 too and its on its baws on teins with a goodridge brake swap with 5.1 fluid !
and a 2002 wrx intercooler on mine with a previous remap !
and i reckon it's reasonably quick !!
holds the road well and stopping could be better but am hoping my new pagid discs will go some way to improving this hth !
edit
btw i was informed i wouldnt need an fpr because my car was a 99 !!
