07 WRX TR 18g build thread

haha ill b good… the wrx heads are really limiting the power to be able to pop the motor. We didnt encounter a single count of knock during the entire day. My next concern is the clutch…

You can’t compare “what-if” mods Mr. Koch…all you can compare is what you “have”. Otherwise I could make a whole list of stuff I’d “like” to do or “could” or “should” do. All we can discuss is what we have. The dyno debates are boring. Goto the track, then the fun begins. It’s a shame we don’t have a graph of your car before/after moon to see how much power you’ve actually gained. Knowing I went from 230whp/235wtq to 305whp/405wtq makes my heart happy with the limited mods I’ve done. All you can be is happy with what you’ve got. Spread the love, lose the hate. :banana

it has been mentioned several times in numerous other threads. not specifically this one that my built block has producedmore power than stock. that simplyis not the case. ive mentioned NUMEROUS times now that my UNCORRECTED numbers were still above or on par with what both justin and jon made with the aid of water/alky injection/torco. this in my mind IS logical… i dont see how it is anything but? yes, i have a bigger turbo…u dont bring a knife to a gun fight…and as ive seen in someones sig on here… run what ya brung…i just plan on bringing more.

:stfu
Just you wait til I buy my 997 Turbo and send it to Ruf for the full R700 conversion! Then you’ll see :nono :nono
Do you see how foolish that sounds?
Lets try to stick to the here and now, and stop hi-jacking the thread. This is about Hater’s build, not Travis’ future STI plans.
We’ll see what your STI does if/when you goto the track Mr. Koch.

i do agree with the future talk. someday i’ll have a 2000hp supra and it will pwn you all… but until then, i’ll stfu about it.

future talk is so rediculous on this forum.

i mean, maybe like… “when i put my 100 shot on next week my car will be faster!” thats a safe assumption, but people are like… hey next year when i win the lottery i’m gonna havea 800whp geo and pull wheelies! :idiots

Travis, seriously dude, unless someone is ASKING about your car or directly COMPARING their car to yours, we don’t need to hear about it. It’s really not that great, I know you’re proud of it, I probably would be too, I’m proud of my car but you don’t see me going into every build thread on here saying “YEAH WELL WHEN I GET MY BUILT MOTOR AND 4088R ILL BE PUTTING DOWN MORE THEN YOU COULD THEORETICALLY PUT DOWN!” or “YEAH WELL YOUR SUPRA MIGHT HAVE 700WHP BUT IT AINT SHIT ILL TOTALLY TAKE IT IN THE TWISTIES”

Those are obvious exaggerations but my point is…is we all know what your car is capable of, I just don’t understand why it seems to me like I’ve read your dyno results more often than I’ve seen Swifty talk about shaving ass or getting hammered, or any combination of the 2 for that matter.

::slight_smile: ok, i guessyour right…

are you talking to me? lol I’m on your side bruthaman

yah i know, ive been better about the drunk browsing tho! :nod

hahaha I wasnt saying that as a negative towards you, im just saying that you talk about drinking on here alot, as an example, yet I’ve read his stupid goddamn dyno numbers tenfold what I’ve read about your drinking.

run on sentence er no?

i duno, but all i see when i try to sleep at night is 366awhp scrolling past my eyeballs

.

troof

Capping off the build thread heres how my best run playd out.

60’- 1.76
330"- 5.20
1/8 mile- 8.00
1/8 mph- 89.35
1000’- 10.41
1/4 mile- 12.44
1/4 mph- 111.54

I was able to crack a 1.66 60’ 5.06 330’ on another run so if i can hit that again i should b able to crack a 12.3 hopefully. All in all im happy with the 12.4.

Solid run. Congrats!

Anything left in the setup? Not sure what boost you ran on that run or how conservative the tune was.
