Turbo subarus are unreliable after modifications or track abuse. Not a lot of safety left on the builds.

Add the blown hoses, oil leaks,

Why would anybody like a down grade???

No thank you
Truth. #1 car I see leaving our local track on a flatbed at open lapping days is an STI.
I once had an acquaintance/friend ask me to ride right seat with him in his nice modified STI at an open lapping day. He had never been on a racetrack before. We made it about 3 laps before the engine exploded. Rod through the block.
