The funniest comment I saw over on Jalopnik: "Smoking the tires -- you're doing it wrong."

LOL @ "drift event." Looks like a parking lot and a bunch of JDM Fanbois in cheapass mostly stock cars.

Oh, wait. That's exactly what most drift events are. Carry on.

That car was owned by Beyond Redline Racing producing 466 whp.

"So now that we have had a chance spend some time with the Power Axel software we were able to get a really rock solid tune on the car with our Exceladyne Turbo Kit. The results are nothing short of amazing! Check out the dyno graph, modification list, and driving impressions below:



The following modifications have been made to the car: FYI if its not listed, its stock.
Beyond Redline Built Long Block
ARP Main Studs
Exceladyne Connecting Rods
Exceladyne Low Compression Pistons
Exceladyne Stage 0 Cylinder Head
Exceladyne Prototype Camshafts
Exceladyne GT3076 Turbo Kit
4" Intake Tube
Tial V-band GT3076 Turbocharger
Tial 38mm Wastegate
Exceladyne Turbo Adaptor
Exceladyne Down Pipe
Exceladyne Twin Disk Clutch Kit
Exceladyne Turbo Back Exhaust System
Exceladyne Street Intercooler System
680 CC Injectors
Walbro High Pressure Fuel Pump
High Octane Fuel
Factory ECU with custom Power Axel Reflash (tuned by Beyond Redline of course )"



**** happens. They were testing and trying to find the best way to do the set up, so for rest of us none of this will happen.
