Nice....never did like the launch compared to the EVO though. Front end drops down then throws you up. The EVO just lifts and moves. IMHO its easier to launch the STI thean the EVO but peeps tend to bog it or spin all the way through first :\ ...and then there is that one guy who broke the rear axel trying to do a 6k RPM launch on me 
All in all...an excellent job getting those numbers out of the car...keep it up guys and you will see 9's.

Nice STi! I knew it would only be a matter of time before they got big power out of those EJ25's. Apparently it's the ports on the head and cams that are the restriction on them. Of course a GT35 helps. 
It's so funny, the STi 6-speed tranny is bulletproof, and the WRX 5-speed will sheer a gear going 60 on the freeway.
