Ok after watching that video I have come to the conclusion that I need a WRC Spec STi from Prodrive! Yes I do realize that they cost a lot of cash, but man they sure do get and go. Only if I had the extra money sitting around! oh well!

B4RSTiwsnc · 01-20-2007, 12:49 PM

does anyone know what turbo they are running, 20g perhaps with anti-lag?

RallyMe · 01-20-2007, 02:21 PM

I'm pretty sure they use IHI turbos...

**WESTI** · 01-20-2007, 02:34 PM

The turbo set up that they use on the WR car is flipped up to where the compressor housing is facing up at about 70 degrees from the stock position. The output from the compressor faces the front of the car so the tube for the intercooler can attach to it. The type of intercooler they run on the WRC is a v-mount/front mount variant to what we are offered on the aftermarket.

Jeep839 · 01-20-2007, 05:18 PM

do they just run an open exhaust?

Scotty, BOVs aren't allowed in WRC. Sounds like a BOV, but I don't know what it is....
