Not enough HP to be worried about traction quite yet. :P
In other news...freind of mine stopped by with his 450WHP impreza. awd doesn't do much for traction on that thing :blink:
Once it catches, jesus..it fawkin TAKES off.

450 HP? How much $ in tranny mods / driveline mods did it take to support that? :blink:
I know from reading on Fusion boards that the AWD system on the Fusion is only good to about 300HP stock, after that "Bad Things Happen"

He's a mechanic so he does all the labour himself. Its a 6speed sti tranny with some goodies inside.

nef.. you can't really compare AWD in a ford fusion with AWD in a STi / EVO
the tech is totally different and the intended purpose of the cars is totally different

Oh I didn't mean that, I just didn't think that Subaru had built in that much room to tinker to get to those hp #'s...
The Ford AWD system in the Fusion is much more reliant on electronics, which is why the lower #'s, as I understand it :unsure:
