Who doesn’t love a good dyno video?  We decided to combine 5 of our favorite Subaru dyno pulls currently floating around the interweb and share them with you through one video.  To start is the record breaking “White Bullet,” at #5.  A 1053whp Subaru STi that is currently the fastest 6-speed, 4-cylinder Subaru to run the quarter mile at 7.96 seconds with a speed of 173mph.  Very impressive for the car and driver to be able to manage all that power while shifting.  I’ve also had the privilege of drooling over it up close in person too, that was sweet.  Next at #4 is the IAG built, 2015 Subaru STi.  The car made 1244whp and 908wtq, and that was back in August 2016.  As of this year, the car now makes 1274whp and 924 wtq, because why not?

I couldn’t help but throw in a few swapped Subaru’s for your viewing pleasure.  For the next spot at #3 is a turbocharged LS2-swapped STi, making 794whp on 93 octane.  It’s truly amazing how much power you can make out of the LS Chevy V8s.  Next is a very internet-famous Subaru coming in at #2; the one and only “Rexzilla,” which you have probably seen all over Instagram.  It’s a 2012 WRX with probably one of the nicest engine bays I’ve ever laid my eyes on.  Resting in the car is Nissan RB26 engine out of an R34 GTR – and boy, does it make all the right noises.  Choosing our favorite wasn’t easy, but something about a GC8 with a sequential gearbox screaming on a dyno is just too appealing.  Taking the #1 spot is this Impreza GC8 time-attack car doing a flat shift test.  Equipped with it is a Cosworth CS600X engine with a Kaps 6-speed sequential gearbox, making an unknown amount of power.  Looks mad fast though, and that’s all that matters.

Subaru has accomplished some huge milestones over the years.  Whether they decide to jump a car, go nuts on a gymkhana course, attack a stage rally or rallycross course, they are always doing something to push the limits of a car.  This video shows just that on tarmac.  This year Subaru decided to take on the Isle of Man and the Nürburgring, destroying both of this year’s previous track records in a Prodrive Subaru STi.  Over in the Rocky Mountains, Subaru Rally Team USA charges the hill climb up to Pikes Peak, one of the most intense and mentally challenging events to ever drive, and again, beating that record.  The Tomei/Cusco Subaru STi with a Prototype Genesis EJ25 Boxer engine achieving first place at the 2008 Buttonwillow Super Lap Battle – a legendary car that inspires hawkeye owners everywhere.  Lastly, the “Proud of Boxer” BRZ GT300 Super GT Race Car built by Subaru Technica International (STi).  An EJ20-powered heart giving it a contagious noise with a first place win at the Suzuka 1000km.  These tarmac-attacking, boxer-powered machines are what give us die-hard Subaru motorsport fans the inspiration and dedication to chase our dreams and support the brand we all know and love.
