I wouldnt care what it laid but how fast it was at the track. You could have 1500awhp but if it doesnt get out of its own way who gives a shit ---

> [@Shawn96VR-4](#): > > That’s a lot for 369. Yea that is pretty quick for that power. Joe Berlino is a great guy and really knows how to launch that car well. He brings the car back to me (from Boston) on a regular basis for maintennace and upgrades and it’s fun watching him launch it down my “dragstrip” out in front of the shop when he leaves. New turbo coming soon to it though, wink wink ;D I’d like to see what this 35r runs in midrange now that the tip in enrichment is fixed :confused ---

Just got back from Moon Performance and Seth drastically improved the drivability of the car. All in all the car made 442awhp and the car screams from about 4k rpms and up. I have a dyno vid that i’m converting right now and I’ll upload it shortly. The car is really alot more fun to drive now and I’m going to try and hit up the track on wednesday if the weather is nice. I’m pretty sure these figures were @ 28psi (according to the map sensor). Anyways, I’m more then happy with the cars peformance to say the least. Seth is a great guy to work with. ---

> [@Celtic1982citleC](#): > > Hence…dyno=tuning tool…track measures vehicle performance I agree but I would never go on any dyno that doesn’t match that the track says. Of course, if you re-use the same one (assuming it’s consistant) it can be valuable. But, I prefer my data to reflect real life. My dyno #s/trap #s match so I’m happy. ---

Yeah…with my STI I’ve had the luxury of being on Seth’s MD from start to finish so I have a great direct comparison to see what each stage of the car is doing for power and such. ---

Your car put up some impressive numbers, don’t be dissapointed especially since they dont inflate their numbers like others. Do you plan on taking it to the track? sorry if you mentioned this before… what clutch do you have? ---
