i doubt he runs a pitiful time. And I don't doubt he beats stock WRX's. But with the mods on that car he ain't touching a WRX with some real work into it.... He probably left his timeslips out so that everyone who runs faster then the low 13 or so that he probably runs won't be out a the street races gunning for him about dissing WRX's so bad. I know if I had my RS turbo'd that i'd be out looking to force feed him a plate of crow.

If you guys have ever read the "Gasoline FAQ"
he writes a part about the honda F1 engine
They were all 1.5 liter V8, not inline 4.
Regulation for F1 was like 98 octane or some ridiculously low number that honda and BMW managed to squeeze this 1500 hp out of.
the 1500 hp was also qualifying trim, which means it was designed to survive for one lap. i believe aorund 60 psi for race trim.
