Holy crap that is strange! I'm not really fond of meshing things like this together, but it looks like they did a decent job. The sight of that Evo and hearing a V8 getting punched really throws me off though. Bizarre!

Uh.......If it won't hook up now with those skinny tires....what do ya expect it will do with the blower hooked up!!:cool:

Very neat concept but without some real tires out back it is ALL SHOW....even then I wonder how controllable it might be at high speed??!!:shake:

Yea I saw that probably like you said a year ago on SVTp. That is nuts. That's almost as bada$$ as an RX-7 with an LS1. http://videos.rotarytuner.com/category/Quarter+Mile/2/d393f33f-0627-4300-971e-98130038345b.htm
1:45 is where it gets good.

Yep same here, was looking at a 2005 Evo MR model and the 2005 Wrx STi. But coming out of an bad accident with a small car I knew I had to go bigger.

There's two kids I know of here in town, both brothers. One's 24 with an '06 Evo MR, the other's my age with an '05 STi. Talk about battles eh? They are both decent and equal drivers, both have an intake/exhause and tuning. I can tell you from being in both, hands down the Evo will toast an STi. I like both, but I love the STi more.
