Raced a white EVO6TME just 15min ago. Bloody hell, it was fast! We didn't get a proper launch due to the traffic, but i was behind him on the traffic lights. What can I say- I was torn apart, shreded into pieces, slashed, hammered and murdered!
What actually happened: when we started- i got on him(don't forget i was in back of him) and had to release the accelerator not to hit his bumber, when he started to go (finally got his turbo to spin
). I sticked at his bumper all way down the 1st. Perfectly shifting into 2nd- he was pulling a car length of me, 3rd- he is 2 cars away and continuously pulling ahead! It was quick. I don't know what HP he's got, cause he didn't talk to me on the next traffic lights- probably way too proud of himself Any ideas what sort of HP's his car in?

300+ at least... evos are very quick, especialy the sprint!
An Evo 8 gets to 100 a full second quicker than my STI8 with PPP!
Don't worry yours sounds better!

When I read that first I thought you were going to say you have a UK turbo, but a Spec C!!!! That EVO must have been an animal, 350bhp maybe???

2 akshay67: It happened in St John's wood area. We were coming from Finchley road, noticed him near O2 center. As for the mudflaps, i can not say what mudflaps they were- white and red, might be ralliart. The driver was a black guy, smoking a thin cigar. Cockpit was full of gauges. The car was tinted. That's all what i could see on the next traffic lights.
2 Danny B: I could, but my pics are so large- almost a meg each. Any ideas where can i get some software to make them smaller? P.S. How do I attach the pictures to the gallery?

Mail them to d.blanchfield@btinternet.com and I'll sort them out if you like.
If not
Make sure they are saved as a .jpg not .bmp then go to http://fotopic.net sign up and upload them, then copy & paste the link into a post in the members gallery.
Cheers

The Spec c limiteds come in a few colours, white, red, blue, black, the spec c comes in white or blue (but have never seen one in blue).
The spec c also has 320bhp out of the box, the official is 280bhp as per any jap car due to their gentlemans agreement.
Misha, who are you insured with?

The Spec C ltd definitely came in the three colours mentioned. The production run has now ended AFAIK, which is why the link to it has disappeared off of the Subaru Japan website.
If you look at the Litchfield Imports Subaru home page you will see a picture in the top right hand corner of a blue one.
Misha
Please let us know how you get on with the power testing? With a decent exhaust and remap you will be seeing fairly high power figures. Due to the roller bearing turbo you will also find spool up and acceleration will be fairly vivid.
