So how does it all work? Let's do the math. The car weighs about 2030 pounds. The stock Subaru 2.0-liter WRX engine produces 227bhp. Even if we forget about the horsepower that the custom intake and exaust are making over the restrictive Subaru systems, plus the Cobb power pulley, we have a better power-to-weight ratio than a Lotus Exige S.

With over 1100 pounds less mass to push around, the EJ20 would feel electric, revving into the boost range before any lag is detected. When the car is in boost, it's a matter of holding on to the steering wheel and shifting before banging off the rev limiter.:ninja:

nice

I think that is the Jdm sti motor, so it is putting out more than 227hp. The jdm motor is a 2.0l also.

Got to see this car up close. Cool car but much too over done. He blows up the stock 914 trannies like no ones buisness.
