The tune will be adjusted soon to be optical in such cold weather, although I don't really drive the car when it's so cold out. I prefer my FX35s heated seats! Lol
also I don't really see a point of taking th car back on a dyno. I know how it performs every time I go to the track. The only meaningful numbers are the ones on the timeslip.
Blue smoke? I can't tell. I know that the car burns some oil, which is absolutely normal for a built block, but nothing excessive. We are talking maybe 0.3 qrts per 1000 miles and that's with a small leak on my mivec solenoid valve I think. Need to change the little gasket there.
Taking the car fom the street completely cold at 25 dgrees to the dyno room and pulling 3 times to almost 9000 rpm with just idle warm up and not driving definitely affected it... Oh well... It is what it is. We had fun!

True!!!!!!U car sounded crazy on the dyno didnt break up at all even with 10.afr's lol...Bro new tranny and some better shifting and you'll be in the 10's easy....The shop and jr did some great work on your car great looking power band to bad we could't find out the tqbut it's probably in the low to mid 400's...oppa. soulvakia .lol.
You should hear the car running proper afrs... The sound is completely diferent! More crisp, more high pitch... Motorcycle like I would say! Lol
hell I made three pulls and burned like a 1/4 tank! Hahahaha
Good **** though. Looking forward to the 2010 season
Some videos of my smoker! HAHAHA
TSA Dyno Shootout
526 awhp different camera
547 awhp different camera
one of these days i will go to The Shop and sit with junior to adjust the afrs for such cold weather... preferably on the street... and maybe we can work something out for your request!
Not yet. Actually at the first WRX vs EVO day i weighted the car again at 3360 lbs with just a touch of 1/2 tank.
Me as a driver have already lost 30 lbs since last year but the weight is pretty similar since i was carrying a bit more gas and a battery jumper which is pretty heavy...
The car will probably drop around 100 lbs this year due to coilovers, lighter tires for the track, removal of the rear crash beam etc....
32lbs from the coilovers (Apexi)
28lbs from the tires (from 25lbs snow tires to 18lbs Hoosiers)
17lbs from rear crash beam
20lbs from my toolbag which i will start to remove and i race the car
thats 97lbs... Plus my 30lbs, maybe a lighter laptop than my 10-11 bls two batteried Dell, maybe removal of the trunk cage and the front strut bar for another 19 lbs...
I think i can have a 3200 race weight!
BTW to support my numbers once again, the car ran on Saturday 129, 130, 126, 130 mph right of my garage at around 28psi...

They are 26x9.5-16 and on Hoosiers website we show 18lbs for weight. I think you need tubes with these.
They have another radial version of QTP which weights 22lbs but I think I will go with the tube tires.
