Its at the shop, ready for more dyno tuning. We have been incredibly busy for January. We plan on extracting even more power out of it by the time its all said and done.

I think the goal was set at around 875-900WHP? No nitrous, I want them to spray that 100 shot and be the first 1000WHP EVO.

I remember back in the day during the first Evo WRX shootout Boost Solutions was trying to claim that.

we have not yet dynoed the car. Its been impossible to get this thing on the rollers being as busy as we are. the number is still 826 because we have not had time to finalize any more tuning.
