I never thought this day would come.....

But it did... I have just had the crap scarred out of me with a smile on my face. 360whp and a STI trany in the rain is the most fun I have ever had in a car!! All 4 wheels don't want to do anything but spin, I did not want to be un safe but I can't go WOT in gears 1-4 or it just starts to kick out! End of rant and I now need some better winter tires lol

360WHP? On what dyno? That's some insane power, especially in the rain!


260whp is a lot of fun in the rain, I can't imagine another 100whp! I was mobbing around today on some fairly bald tires on a long abandoned road in the rain (just to wear the tires out so I can put my new ones on) and it was fun as hell! The understeer with my STi + 255's = crazy

I do have a built block but no e85 that's close to my house. Late next month or mid December I will have 2 stations with e85 less then 5 miles from my house. The day that goes down you can bet your *** I will be on e85 and at least 430whp!

It's pretty fun w/ RWD and 275's too - just got to remember to turn off that traction control! Be safe out there and crash gently if you have to.
