VERY detuned. Like, it was actually difficult to make such little power on the dyno. Right off the bat, the car wanted to make north of 340whp without fine tuning. So my tuner really had to mess with things to drop it.

I know my EGT is high because of how much exhaust is going through the wastegate

You have no idea. Even when committing to make it a race car, which was scope creep in and of itself…it got worse during the build, which was supposed to be 6 months, not 3 years. And DEFINITELY not 5X the budget.

Thanks! Have had the Forester for forever now, and always intended it to be an off road build.

The Outback I always meant to be a fun, lightly modded daily driver and road trip car…then got carried away with it and now it’s a full on caged competition race car, lol.

This car is so damn close to production ready, using 95% production parts, I believe what we are seeing is a pre-production prototype versus a “concept”.

I could see that if they didn’t just showcase this equipped with a 6-speed manual. If this was shown with a CVT, I’d be right there with you.

It needs white wheels.

I think I should paint the wheels white.

I’m going to paint them white.

And now I’m removing GM vehicles from all future purchase considerations.
