Silly Subie...
I was driving my 2006 GTO when some silly WRX got next to me and gave me a blow off valve salute...
So I stepped on the gas and Maybellene (my 2006 GTO) quickly accelerated and got next to the WRX and repaid the favor, making a turkey sounding splash from the Tial BOV.
The silly subie driver had a rather puzzled look on his face, obviously not expecting such a sound coming from a LS2 GTO.... Lo and behold we both catch a red light, we both sit there waiting on green...
Green hits and we are off, my A4 GTO gets a great launch as it always does, we are neck and neck out of 1st, the A4 hits 2nd and Maybellene gets alittle sideways for a instant, then catches traction and it was as if the WRX slam'd the breaks, Maybellene starts pulling away with ease running away with a race that was a huge mis-match. This Subie got routed in a race from a dig and was very lucky this wasn't a roll race, as the beating would have been even more severe...
Turns out the Subie is a upper 12 second car and traps 110ish...
silly subie drivers, you ain't the only ones with turbos.

RE: Silly Subie...
I have two kills on srt-4's, one guy at work has one and I always get himoff the line, another time I had a srt-4 try to keep up with me once and he could never catch up, he was two car lengths behind and I wasn't even trying, the only reason they could get anything but an ss in a full quarter mile is they got a turbo other than us with just pure engine.

My SRT traps in the mid 130's, it would rout you rather ugly.
I love my 2006 Monte SS but the SRT pulls it as if the Monte is stuck in quicksand with 4 flat tires, it is a mis-match of epic proportions.
