Have you guys been living under a rock? That video has been around for just about 2 years!

430 whp on the GST dyno would be damned hard on pump....at least if you still want street driveability....and mild lag.

I think the Type 25 is running a turbo similar to the ATP 3076, a stock location 30r.

Don't think they are running on 91 out there. or that its 430 whp? You can easily make 430flywheel on pump safely.

There was just one for sale a week or 2 ago, its on some autotrader type deals from England. Rather build a better one myself, oh ya I pretty much already have that.

I don't see the need for mass ejaculation over this car?

Yeah, it has some nice brand name parts, but the engine performance is on par with most bolt on stock location turbos and 93oct.

It is probably higher octane pump gas AND flywheel hp Since when do car manufacturers (even aftermarket) advertise in whp? IT IS still running the STI topmount, which is effective, but would have to be detuned pretty hard to make a reliable street car.

As this video is a few years old, the car is still bad ***. I think I saw the price somewhere when the topic came up of why the US doesn't get the higher-end STI's. Main reason is that they wouldn't sell. I think that T25 STI would be like $70k or something if they sold it here, with the Spec C's going for $50k+. I could be wrong since I'm going off memory, but it has been brought up on nasioc.

I'd sooo rock one, Make them all satin black or audi crayola grey.
I'd take an LIC limited edition any day! Any day that I could afford one, that is.

They also have a 2009 T20
