The vid on page 5 has the RC in it. The vids Cessblood linked (that dont work anymore) with the 1/4 mile time in it, does not. The 1/4 mile vids are with a normal GT86 and BRZ. In retrospect though, the faster times can be attributed to it being DK who is driving the cars. I bet he only weighs a good 130-150lbs and someone commented in a thread on FT86club that they run 0-400m. We see that and equate 400m to be 1/4 mile. But when you look at a 1/4 mile in feet it's 1320ft. 400m is 1312ft. 1320ft converted to m is 402. So, what's a 1/4 mile....lol. 400m or 402m?

1320-1312 = 8ft or am I missing something? 1312 + 18 = 1330.

It's probably like that to A) get around something or B) to decrease the piping to not allow much of a drop in pressure from the compressor through the system. There has to be a reason for a company like HKS to mount it off so much.
