@@kermitthefragg ChatGPT Response: Q: Can an engine's performance in a rally car be hindered by the surface environment the driver and car are experiencing? ChatGPT Answer: Yes, the surface environment in which a rally car operates can indeed have a significant impact on its performance, including the engine's performance. Different surface conditions, such as gravel, tarmac, snow, or mud, present unique challenges and affect the way a rally car handles, accelerates, and maintains traction. Here are a few key ways in which the surface environment can impact engine performance: Traction: The surface condition directly affects the amount of traction the tires can generate. On loose surfaces like gravel or mud, the tires may struggle to gain sufficient grip, leading to wheelspin and reduced acceleration. This can put additional strain on the engine as it tries to maintain power output while dealing with limited traction. Power delivery: Rally cars often have powerful engines that deliver significant torque to the wheels. Depending on the surface, the engine's power may need to be adjusted or modulated to prevent wheel spin or loss of control. For example, on a slippery surface like ice or wet tarmac, the driver may need to be more cautious with throttle inputs to avoid overpowering the available traction. Cooling: Rally stages often demand high engine performance for extended periods, and the engine generates a significant amount of heat. The surface environment can affect the cooling of the engine, especially if the car is operating in dusty or muddy conditions. These conditions can clog the air intake or reduce the effectiveness of the radiator, leading to overheating and potential engine performance issues. Engine stress: The surface environment can subject the engine to additional stress and strain. Rough terrains with constant bumps and jumps can expose the engine to intense vibrations and shocks, which may affect its components and overall performance. Prolonged exposure to harsh surface conditions can also increase wear and tear on the engine, potentially leading to mechanical issues or reduced reliability. To optimize performance, rally car teams and drivers adapt their driving techniques, suspension setups, and engine mapping to suit the specific surface conditions they encounter during each stage or event. They often make adjustments to the power delivery, traction control systems, and cooling mechanisms to ensure the engine operates optimally and maintains reliability throughout the rally.
that's what i love about Ferrari. i've driven the california and tracked the 458. When you want to cruise in one, you can cruise in one. When you want the power, oh yeah it'll give you the power and it's never ending (it just keeps wanting to go). Ferrari is Ferrari for a reason.
I’m just glad there’s people out there doing exactly what they wanna do, there was no need to build a car like this, yet there it is, just fucking beautiful
@@StanleyKubick1 Intersting answer, please explain how having the engine in front of the front axles is equal? I would say the MittsubitCHY evo would compare, maybe a tad higher senter of gravity because no boxer but lets be honest. How much difference could it be.
I remember when the F1 cars used to sound like this, F1 Move over :) " when a rally car sounds better than a F1 car" but do wonder why! cant you get good power from a well tuned scoobie motor or was it cheaper to just fit this motor in ?
Good lord that Ferrari sound is absolutely amazing. Can you imagine how happy that engine is?? "Wait so I get to just scream my ass off for a living, the most favorite thing I love to do??!!"
After probably spending the first part of its life hauling some middle-aged man around slowly around town, I bit that Ferrari engine is loving its new life!
@@Kj16V Sadly , So many Ferrari owners cant drive for shit , at least this one is screaming happily to each finish line. The impressive thing is the engine sounds strong and safely screaming at those revs where other engines would explode trying to match it
Definitely one of the most unique rally cars out there if not the most unique one. Nobody expects to see a Ferrari engine in a Subaru but everyone are pleased to see it. This is what rally is all about!
Everyone at Olympus was super excited to see your car! I've shown a bunch of people the pictures I took of it. I hope you come back to Olympus next year, and I know everyone here will want to see you race. Awesome build!
Really cool. I'm glad to see that they haven't yet changed the rules to ban this engine setup. Some of the best stories in the history of motorsports have been when teams, individuals, etc.. have found ingenous ways to bend the rules. Turbo fans, diffusers, active suspension, turbo mods, aero mods, etc.. have all given us amazing stories and fantastic cars.
This car is way more practical than i thought. most times when you see builds like this, the owners are just doing it to do it, like ls swaping a miata, but this car with this engine actually makes since
I've watched car vids for at least 15 years on youtube and seen many builds in my life, but THIS is the coolest car I have ever seen. Absolutely badass. Like another comment said, the sounds are reminicent of group B rally cars. It reminds me of a custom gun build I saw a guy walking around with at a gun show, sten gun upper on an AR-15 lower that he made himself. So unique I'll never forget it
Outstanding mate!!! Hands down my favourite engine swap I’ve ever seen. That noise!!!!! Honestly had my mouth open catching flies for most of the video. It sounds like a group B Quattro!!! Incredible man. Well done. What a creation. New subscriber and I wish you all the best in the coming rallies! ✌🏻
You put anti lag firebox superpowers kaboomy boom whaaarrtttt whaaaarrrttt bang de de bang bang bang bang on a Ferrari motor!!! Your my new superhero Batman kinda guy!! Yiiiippppeeee!!! The lances ran a Ferrari v8 and it’s my favourite rally car ever!! Until now!!!!! 4x4x anti lag!!!!!!!!!!!!

There's probably never been a Ferrari motor driven to it's full potential until this happened. The best thing in the world is seeing and hearing all that incredible engineering actually being driven at it's limits.
@@MrBunksauce yeah you're right, I was thinking more along the lines of midlife crisis boomers who buy Ferraris and never even hit the rev limiter much less redline the shit out of it.
Need to modify the roof scoop to give some air to the rad if it’s in back otherwise there will never be enough air flow to keep a hot running engine cool
God, I love fellow car guys. Crazy car guys question, "do you think a Ferrari motor work in this vehicle?". Crazy car guy friend, "but of course." Crazy car guy, "should we do it?" Crazy car guy friend, "well, hell yeah we should!" Crazy car guy, "how fast do you think it would be?" Crazy car guy friend, "fast enough to blow the wheels off." Crazy car guy, "let's do it then. " Crazy car guy friend, "this is going to be epic." When smart rednecks make great toys, with the thought of "hold my beer and watch this!" 😅
Ferrari knows how to make a awesome engines, that is why they are so expensive apart from the materials etc Epic sound, epic power delivery etc etc so who will dislike a Subaru with a ferrari engine ... COOL project !!! 😃
Riley continues to set the world on fire with the quality and quantity of his work. IMO there's no loss giving up the last bit of supposed streetability for this car - it's never belonged on public roads. Can't wait to see how it does on track!
Love the video man love the car great upload keep it coming man you'll get there!! All that data you guys are collecting will end up paying off!! You watch Buddy!!!
Stuff like this makes the events fun to attend, I remember the first stage I went to, it was because I knew a Morris Mascot was gonna race there, it didn't end up making it due to some issues. But there were other unique cars, and one of my favorites that day drove straight into a lake by going way to fast and sideways into a 90 degree turn 😂
The one thing every person who starts a project car build dreams of is having other people interested in it and would spend time coming to see it in person. Props to you!
Wow! that sounds spectacular. You must have some amazing skills to build it, get it running, and drive it too! Hope it goes as good as it sounds - good luck for your championship.
That engine doesn't care what surface is under it, or parts for that matter. It just owns it. The sheer power is amazing.
Why would the surface ever impact the engine....
@@kermitthefragg True. lol. It wouldn't, but maybe what it is connected to might not?

Ive been waiting for this video for a while, hope there are some follow up videos. This thing is awesome.
holy shit what an incredible sound, and that's coming from another flat plane V8 owner! i absolutely need a Voodoo powered GT86 now!!!
Now THAT'S an idea, that'd make for a sick time attack or even drift build
Might as well take the mustang drivetrain and swap all of it. Bc i know those trans' and diffs can hold voodoo torque
Great job @dirtfish putting this video together!
This has echoes of the crazy Rallycross cars we saw in Europe in the 80's and 90's. Absolutely first class build
best sounding rally car ever. please please come to the tall pines

really respectable swap right here, awesome car, and motor!
Thats one sick ride bro
man that sound!!!!!! i love it. Great job bro

I haven't been this excited about a car in a while...
That is so dope!
10 for 10 on the exhaust note..👍..
awesome, im glad youtube recomend it to me
Thats fken sick bro and the fact you keep it 4wd. Hell yeah bro
I love how this is an 8 minutes video when you could have said "why not" and that would have been more than enough
First time I've heard a rally car sound like a F1
"Why I did what I did" because it's fukn sick.
Nothing sounds better than a flat plane crank V8
Why you would do something so dope is an unnecessary question
what a nice engine . Don’t forget Volvo had a V8 for a short while 4.4L 300+ HP at the crank, can be found for far less than 11k
Du beau boulot de transformation et quelle musique !!!
my mouth was wide open when i heard that sound my god
That's pretty dope man
Thx for that
I hope you bring it to the southern Ohio rally!
Rally just rocks.
Freaking madness. Ya gotta love it
Glorious sound
