I wish I had this performance in Colorado! This actually took place in St. Louis Missouri. I drove in to visit family and my brother said I should come along with him to the drag strip. I couldn't pass that up .

But yeah, noticeably more torque at sea level than at 8000 feet above. Engine even sounds meatier.

Sti-Cobb stage 1 tune

Frs-OFH and stage 2 uel e85 tune.

We even swapped cars and had a few more goes with pretty much the same results. The fa20 did much better than I expected!

Same results. Surprised a stage 1 STI by being just as fast on the stage 2 E85 oft tune.

Few days ago someone are just trying to show off in front of me some dude on a V6 sedan <don't know the car> and trying to pass every car in front of us and just following him. We are on state road 55mph limit and we are all cruising around 60,I know the place and some traps on the area suddenly one trooper on white charger came in at my rear I knew he was not after me as he might be saw him running wild on the road,the cars filed up he was in front of a trailer truck and cruising all in 60 then he suddenly over take it and that moment I knew what the trooper are waiting for, I went to side in a bit and he pass all of us like literally 3 cars plus the trailer then Boom!he caught him on the side. He just show off at the wrong time and place and its not worth the ticket just trying to show you have a bigger balls than the other.I don't know what those driver are trying to do but I know for sure I got his attention and by the way that police charger are damn fast!

Camaro honked at me like 8xs, i roll window and replied to everything he said in Spanish. He was trying to race on the hwy. :/ after 3 min of driving with me at 60mph he floored it and left flippingme off.

Time to get a custom license plate that says, 'slow.'

If I didn't have a custom plate already, I would've gotten "200hp"

Had a Celica GT pace beside me while downshifting every couple seconds to, I presume, get my attention or show off. Crackled it's huge fart can. Saw it out of the corner of my eye but didn't turn my head or else acknowledge it's presence.

After about a minute of constantly downshifting and revving, guess the person got pissed off, and floored it cutting me and 4 other cars off in the other lanes. Noticed it had considerable body damage...

That poor car.

Maybe "lento" would be more in order?

Was cruising on some country hwy with my gf. 2 lane highway with enough oncoming traffic to not allow easy passing. There was someone going around 55ish in front of me and a 2014/2015 bmw 3 series right behind acting antsy.

An uphill passing lane opens up and I take it to pass the car in front of me, I know the bmw is coming to pass me in the right lane. We get to 105mph neck and neck before I let him over and we exchange waves of mutual respect

R/T revved and tailgated me from work today. I smiled and turned music up higher until I could find a place to let him go around me. He might get bored of driving his hp box with wheels all week long on his way to work, but I don't.

Also, earlier wen't for lunch and chubby girl in silver FRS flipped me off after I waved.
