Nice vid Rasmus, very entertaining. Your car looks very quick, but I think you went somewhere above 62HP along the way with your work on the car.

What's with the Volvo sign on your car? Also, the Titan sounded pretty nice, as the commentary noted.

Yea, maybe ... 63? 64hp?

even with high rise intake, no cat and wide open 2.25" exhaust, revving to 8000 rpm several times, and having no seats except for my own - its STILL slow, Very very very slow. It's only fast because I have no fear ;)

I get valve float at 7300+ but when you downshift from 2nd going 80 km/h, the tach will hop off the scale for a sec as all four wheels try and slow down the car :)

My tranny must hate me :D

I'm not worried about the engine dying, it'll live forever somehow - the tranny might die thoe - which would suck ass.

On a very positive note, I was faster than all the WRXs :shock: :lol:

Oh well :)

Oh, congrats on what exactly?

the video made me feel warm inside... it must be humbling to get railed by a 6(4?) horsepower wagon while sitting on the hood of dare I say one of the greatest rally cars of all time. (although I think Citroen just took the title for most consecutive wins so idunno). Great video I would like to see more!

I wish there was enough space to do that in Chicago, it looks like soooooooo much fun.

Well, I drove a non-STi WRX and it was a MONSTER!!!!!!! What do I have to say as to why Average Joe Coffee sucks in such a machine? THEY ARE SCARED. We don't have a lot to fear in our cars. They are over-engineered, underpowered, well weight balanced, and durable. We know that even if we drive PTM 100% we aren't going to die. That makes it easy to kick arse. Most people I know who drive WRX's, STi or no, are too intimidated to push them offroad. Onroad they romp on them, but you get them on gravel, mud, snow or anything they turn into paranoid little wimps. Evident by me passing them at 75 on ice... And not dying.

Well, I better start loading it so I can see it before I go to bed lol.
