93 registered as E9 because Gasoline in USA contains up to 10% Ethanol, unless otherwise stated. So that statement means, the gasoline that day contained 9% ethanol

Judging by his engine bay... doubt that is possible.

Could be wrong and it is just super stealth.

I talked to Don about supercharger or turbo. He said if go with the Vortech because my BRZ is a daily driver. Next time i plan to have Don install his 400 turbo kit. The car in this video was totaled, so I will be looking for another one soon.

What were your mods?

Poor fate for the subject car of this thread....

From the SubaruBRZ forum:

My 2013 Subaru BRZ before and after fire. I only had the car for 8 months. Cause of fire has yet to be determined but it's look like it was the OEM fuel pump on the engine. Insurance company only gave me $26.000 for the car. Car had about 9000 miles on it before death. SUCKS! Beware! This could happen to you!

Quote:

Thanks guys. The fuel pump was not replaced. I had about 10k in the car at time of death. I purchased the Vortech supercharger kit, full header back exhaust, wheels, tires, few other things. The car was tuned by Visconti, he was driving the car when it caught fire. You can see the car on his channel on youtube under 'vistuned' it was on the dyno pulling 290whp on pump gas with the Vortech kit.

What fuel mods did you have in place?? That might have probably be the culprit of the fire.

Based on the fact he answered in July 23rd saying it was already totaled it seems it happened a while ago, but just saw the update in the other forum. I guess that's why there was never official word from anyone about this car in this forum.

it's supposed to shoot flames... out the tail pipe

Wonder if it had a flex fuel kit? I believe some of them had fuel leak issues encountered.
