I ve got a friend with a subaru that i compete with... and i always beat him... having the same kind of mods...
now... something changed!
he has put:
forged pistons
forged rods
injectors
kit f.m.intercooler
kit turbo gt30

Do i stand a chance with my 9 and oem turbo...???
In jan i will put gsc cams, ebc set to 23-24psi, hks full icp...

 

At 24 psi you should be able to run 12.2-12.4 easly in the 1/4 mile, plus you have got a clutch and some nice mods shouldn't be a prob.
How much are you making @ the wheels

 

You will get him, from a roll that is. He can't get much over 400 crank hp.

 

Ive seen a fully built STI here locally with a GT35R and he was running 12.7@107

 

A stock STi recently ran 12.98 so I would say the 12.7 from a GT35R was either a really bad tune or a really bad driver.

A nicely tuned gt30r on a build 02 STi engine will have no problem getting to 400whp, it would probably max out safely around 450.

 

One of my friends at slowboys has an 04 sti had an upgraded SR55, which he tells me is bigger an a 30r but he put down 367 on a dynapak and tells me he ran an 11.9....dont believe his 1/4 time but i dyno'd 350 on a mustange and took him by 2 cars in the 8th mile

This link is to a forum about a similar WRX. It has a good video on that setup racing a Cobra TT.

 

Yea there are alot of slow sti and regular wrx but then there are those that suprise you

 

No bench racing (or street racing) - take it to a legal track and run a 1/4.

 

slow is a very relative word

 

I have never seen a local STI break into the 11s not even close to low 12s either ,and this is with tons of mods

 

There are tons of STi's in the low 12's and high 11's. Check out a WRX forum and you will see.

I understand the need to rip Subies since this is an EVO forum, I get that...but it is still a very fast and competent car.

 

Yea with 5-10k invested in them

 

ok, what's your point?

 

nevermind, you dont get it
