I've been lusting after a Forrester turbo ever since they came out. What kind of mileage do you get with that rocket? Is the bottom end torque as good as it sounds?

The 165 HP, plain jane L model handled it ok, but the S model has 4-wheel disk brakes that stop it better. Currently, I have a Forester with a turbo in it (210 HP), and hardly know the boat is back there--just finished the 800 mile round-trip Pullman- to- Anacortes and the 2-week sail with the Monty group in the San Juan and Gulf Islands. --Gary Hyde N24 'Sailabration' M15 #235 'Vanilla'
