You should take on a white one. No Spoiler. Hawaii plates. It's NOT stock.

Slight understatement with this comment. ^^

If you want to play with STi's you have to come up to Foco. There are a lot of guys up here that have new and old ones and they love to show off on Friday and Saturday nights.

Maybe it's just me, but Evo/STi's don't worry me unless they at least have an aftermarket turbo... ;)

This one has aftermarket just about everything. Relatively conservative tune on E85 and it's 343 AWHP.

Yep...but it still rapes my MS6 and leaves it for dead. And that's on a DynoDynamics, too. Mustang would read higher, obviously.

And the Tq is over 400 at the wheels, I believe.

Is that corrected or uncorrected? And yes, that would rape a nearly stock MS6 :P

Uncorrected, I believe. And just about everything with a snail rapes a nearly stock MS6. :)

343 awhp, especially on E85, is nothing for an STi. On a Dyno Dynamics, it's a good number...they read the lowest of any dyno. On a DynoJet he would be pushing 370ish awhp.

Now if that's uncorrected, then it's more impressive due to the altitude up here, but I doubt that's uncorrected. Stock STi's dyno in the low 200's to high 190's uncorrected up here on a Dyno Dynamics.

No whiplash, just had me giggling a lot going up the canyon roads here in Fort Collins. Tires broke loose once or twice and there may have been some drifting :)

Twas fun.

And a Mustang, even higher, right?

I just talked to him -- no correction factors, Dynodynamics, done at 5000 feet by Harvey (Boost Creep).

Yeah, he's done a bit of the drifting with me, too. He and I are going to rally a couple dirt roads out here one of these days, and when snow hits, I think we're going to have TOO much fun.

Oh, and erod, please don't call it a "nearly stock MS6." That hurts its feelings, and since it's purple, it's VERY sensitive. It prefers, "lightly modded" or "in the early stages of modding."

LOL

No, Mustang dynos are generally considered to read low. Dyno Dynamics are just even lower. Dynojets and Dynapacks generally read higher.
