Early tonight about 9:00 pm on 10 freeway. I noticed a very new STi with huge exhaust pipe. For some reasons we cruised side by side. I was on the 2nd lane and he was in the first lane (fastlane in US) We cruised side by side for about few miles and I think he noticed my boost gauge. He started to pull hard away from me and I kept up with him. We both slowed down and I push "HIGH BOOST" Setting on my EBC to 18 psi. At 18 psi my car was dynoed almost 400 rwhp. That is about 450 bhp. For a heavy sedan its a pretty good ride.
From there we both gunned hard. He had a jump on me initially but after 2 seconds or so. I flew by him like a rocket. I bet he was surprise an old LS400 passing him.
On the third time we did it again and he still smell my smoke. The engine felt great and the car pulls hard. On the freeway, not too many mildly mod car can match this old LS.
Lexus should be proud...
