hmm someone thinks they like to yank sti’s eh?.. :nono
now that looks sick! you should be real proud man
AWD is slow from a roll. :tong
BS :crackup
was the mustang gt you ran white?
agreed. get her off 4x4 status. :tong
Tom’s is no slouch from a roll :lol
Which sucks he’s leaving because i’d like to see that vs the camaro
white with blue strips…hot blonde girl…vermont plates. Must have been on the way home.
Wheels look good Smokin, they’ve got some old school muscle flava.
I agree with others about dropping it a little but maybe just the front to give you some rake and so you don’t have to dick around with the pinion angle in the rear.
I’m running drag bags in the rear that actually lifted the car a bit but got rid of my wheel hop issues. I’m starting to think about a slight drop in the front.
No idea who Tom is but the fastest STi in the area in terms of trap is jays05 and I haven’t seen anything close. It depends what you mean by “slouch”. To me, 120MPH is where it starts to get fun.
Tom has trapped 111 in a stock STI with exhaust…not too bad i would say, seeing how Jays built car went 118-120
Friggin NA owners. :tong
That’s like saying my 6XXAWHP car went LOW 11X at the track but it didn’t because it didn’t make 6XXAWHP on that run (Take passes at low boost to datalog). In the same regard, Jay’s car never came close to touching it’s limitation so comparing really isn’t fair. Hell, what if Jay’s built car made a pass at WG and went 111?
Also, that car didn’t go 111 with just an exhaust.
no its completly gutted too…and has a Cobb tuner??
That explains the trap.
the car moves well he missed a gear and still realed trav back in ,lost by a fender ? maybe if that it deff runs out well :nod
yah i honestly think he might creep me on the highway…
You last trapped 5MPH less. You added headers and whatnot but not sure what that equates to. To be honest, you are starting to realize that the forum times (which often represent the elite people) don’t match YOUR times which is why I break your nuts about 12 second stock LS1 bullshit. Reality > *
5MPH is ALOT of trap. Here’s a solid WS6 that I raced that trapped 112 with MT/CAMS/I/EXHAUST/HEADERS/etc… Do you have similiar mods?
that is just what i was thinking…
it all depends…
EVERY car is different…you and I both know this…no argument there
I have Seen cammed LS1 that run slow as balls to what they are supposed too…if they arent tuned right for it, have supporting mods etc. It all plays an effect on them…a very light cam too sometimes doesnt do much…some people say they are “cammed” but really they just put in a z06 cam etc…which in the end doesnt give them THAT much more power over stock
I have read/seen cammed only Bolt on ss’s/ws6’s run 11’s near 120mph traps…and others, run mid 12’s @ 110-114…
same thing goes for bolt on’s…Bolt on ls1’s I/H/E/ rubber usually trap around 108-112
there was a kid i was talking too down at the lot a few weekends ago when i first got my car that ran a 12.7 @ 110 with just I/H/E and drag radials.
In reality, it SHOULD be a good race…could go either way…right now I have a mysterious misfire that wont go away on cylinder 5. Its going back to the dealership tomarrow to get fixed.
My mods are the following…
Stage 2 clutch
Spohn torque arm
BMR lower control arms
Hooker long tube headers
SLP intake/k&n filter
Pacesetter 3" Catless Y pipe
SLP catback exhaust
Ported/polished Throttle body
Slight tune…did some tuning the other day…ended up advancing some timing with No knock.
