Yeah unfortunately it let go during a 4th gear pull getting on the highway and the car jumped to the side. Not fun… It’s an Ultimate Racing GT35R kit which we modified the downpipe and intake on to fit this chassis. ---

Where are the decals? What self-respecting shop car doesn’t have stickers on it? 😕 How is your gas mileage with the E85? ---

[quote=“93dx–hatch,post:22,topic:34857"”] How much boost? [/quote] Just 21 pounds until the rings are fully seated. Subarus don’t do much on a 35R until around 25 psi, but I can wait. From yesterday to today the leakdown went down 7 percent so we’re on the way to it being broken in over the next week or so hopefully. Subarus sure take a while to break in. We had multiple customers and other shops report their engines took over 1000 miles for the compression to come up and leakdown to drop. That goes for brand new shortblocks from the dealer as well as ones built up with aftermarket parts. [quote=“Rx3,post:28,topic:34857"”] Where are the decals? What self-respecting shop car doesn’t have stickers on it? 😕 How is your gas mileage with the E85? [/quote] It has front and rear window banners on it for now. We’ve been more concerned with getting it running than the stickers so far. 🙂 I’m running 30% more of it than I was with gas under the same conditions. ---

“Now that the US STi triggering is sorted out she runs well, but we still do not have control of the AVCS system yet (variable cam timing). Once that works or I get non AVCS cams the car will have a lot more low and mid range power.” i was just going to say arent the puerto ricans and euro subie draggers running NON AVCS heads? why not just go WRX cam setup with no AVCS? ---
