What should I do? Forester or WRX - Subaru Forester Owners Forum
Jul 22, 2016 · Opportunity came for me to upgrade to an 09 WRX hatch and it was a very tough decision. The WRX had a lot more power and more sports car oriented but the Forester had decent power and a lot more cargo room. I would have had to put a lot of money into the Forester to get it where my WRX was stock and to fix some repairs, so I went with the WRX ...
WRX engine in Forester? - Subaru Forester Owners Forum
Jan 24, 2013 · The XT has essentially the same engine as the WRX. The 08 WRX and the newer 2.5GT Impreza make the same 224HP.
