my car just turned 2,500 clicks so I decided to have some fun against an STI with a frount mount intercooler and by the sounds of it a blow off valve upgrade. Don't know if there were any mods, I will just assume yes since it's very likely running higher than stock boost. one other fact - he had a passenger (I won't really count that as too much discrepancy because I weigh 245, and they both looked like they weighed 145 each)

anyway, long story short, the STI is a fast car. I got about 2 car lengths on him up to 3rd but definitely wasn't shaking him off my ***. We both did hit it off the line so I was surprised I even got the 2 lengths on him to begin with. On a side note, I had traction off and S mode on (I just can't prevent the cut off shifting from 1-2 or 2-3 with the traction on) We talked very briefly afterwards and he seemed to be in shock. He made some comment like "...what the hell is that...what V8 is that?"

On another note, an Audi Rep I know has an Evo with some minor mods that we'll take up Cypress (a nice winding mountain road in Vancouver for those that don't know) soon. I have a feeling it'll be very close...

So far, this car is just getting better and better. It's an amazing package and perfect for Vancouver. I can't ever imagine going into a rear wheel drive car ever again...well...I'd make an exception for ferrari or koenigsegg.
