Subaru BRZ Turbo Does Quarter Mile in 11.3 Seconds

Everybody is praising the the Subaru BRZ and its siblings for the fun ride courtesy of its excellent chassis. However, everybody, including ourselves, would have liked a little bit more power out of the flat-four unit.
However, the white BRZ in this video is very special. It has the addition of a turbocharger system, reprogrammed ECU and straight exhausts - it makes a whopping 440 hp at the wheels. This is more than double the original power output of the car, so performance should be more than brisk.

When we say brisk, what we meant to say was very fast - it did the standing quarter mile 11.3 seconds, reaching a speed of 127 mph (204 km/h) as it reached the timing gate. While the mods may affect the car’s reliability in a negative way, the performance gains are irrefutable and not to be ignored.
