Also, unrelated, had an STI get after me on the highway for a stretch. He started / ended half a car length ahead. Think it surprised both of us since he almost pulled into me thinking he'd have blown past me. (there were no other cars anywhere in sight btw, it's late here). Something to be said for aerodynamics even though more focus has been on power/weight. We didn't talk before or after so take it with a grain of salt, but I was impressed by the little guy chugging away on E85.
Yesterday a s2000 tried to run me and he was keeping up with me but cudnt pass me...We are reaching about 100mph and this freaking sti with no bumper and this big ass intercooler embarrassed us, i saw him coming from way behind us and i was still WOT and he blew by us like it was nothing...I need more power...e85 intake and exhaust at least lmao...feelings were hurt
