Mike you're right those people that posted their comments are idiots. I couldn't even read all of the comments cause I felt like I was getting stupider the more comments I read. Seriously these idiots need a video showing that dude was driving on the road??? .......... When have you ever heard of anybody losing traction on a dyno???? If that car was on a dyno and spun its tires like it did he would've drove off that damn dyno or made a new bay window for that shop. Lol. ( sorry all rant over)

Pretty cool, awsome launch.

Is it really THAT FAST?

13.5 seconds 0-135mph???

I don't think it's that fast. Definitely a lot crazier sti's you can see videos of.

Dyno or not, it's still sounds awesome and will probably beat a decent majority of cars on the road.

If it's the EJ22 turbo block in that turbo Legacy (which I suspect since it has a 1st gen Legacy gauge cluster), that closed-deck EJ22 turbo can take some serious boost
