Sorry didnt catch the exact spec of the Turbo??

the GT30/Scooby exhaust housing??(which I guess you have)which is the one that Turbo Dynamics say Bob has on his car......... those Garrett compressors cost a fortune......

404 - I guess you'll be expecting much more soon...........

You must have spent a bit of money at RCM! my car was there in December for the Internals on a crappy STI5

 

G-Force were indeed running an sti7 at over 400bhp, think it was at 420 when we (Wales mob) were there for our rolling road day. Their car was also at NBO where I remember they had had a play with the cam timing and moved it up to circa 450 or possibly higher. That was on standard internals as well!! Reason for them keeping the internals standard apparantely (according to Chris) was that they wanted to run the car until it blew up to get a better understanding of what would fail, and why.
I haven't spoken to them for a while, but I would be surprised if they hadn't moved it on a bit further since then!!

 

They have - today - with a full 3.5" APS system. Chris reckons it sounds nice Anyone close enough to go for a quick listen? No figures mentioned and no point is guessing - maybe Chris will provide a proper update?

 

NICE, possibly the most powerful newage in the country, don't think the standard internals will last long though

 

Chris was fairly optimistic actually, he basically wants the thing to blow up, but I remember him saying that the cams in the sti are of such a good design that that may atually compensate for the material weaknesses. Or something to that effect as I am a bit of a technophobe!
Most impressive of all though was that the torque curve on the dyno was a very straight line, with similar torque all the way through the rev-range. Although dissapointingly I can't remember the figures.

 

Darren who was that driving it on the M69 yesterday then......?
Si

 

STi7
250kw atw or 310kw at fly(running for a while).
Mods:Motec,Garret 400hp ,fmi,fuel rails etc etc
While tuning at the dyno for more KW , then BANG???
Compression-100,100,100,50.Engine stripped ,holed piston #1



Cheers

 

oooh, rapac, your car??

 

Friend of mine??with lots of $$$$ spend on it, But it appears 400hp it gets a bit too pushy for internals .
Ouite few with 350hp seem to be ok.


Cheers

 

Hre at G-Force Motorsport we've just run 405bhp on an STi 7 at 1.3 Bar - I'd love to tell you all about it - but........

I also believe the APS guys in Auz are now running 500HP on there Sti 7 still on standard internals and all with just bolt on bits. I believe its currently going through its time period to see how reliable it will be and for how long? Once this is completed the bits are going to make there way to these shores to bolt onto the previous threads demo car! Should be interesting.....

 

im on the way for a very moded 2002 wrx just getting everything sorted now ....chris

well,,,,,,,,after couple of minor modifications and a quick remap

went Well Lane today and achieved the following

437bhp at 6063 rpm and 395 lb torque

many thanks to all at Roger Clark Motorsport, Bob Rawle and harvey for his feedback

chuffed? i'll say
Hopefully biggest powered new age???
Daz

 

Good news Darren

But we shall have to see what happens next year at the rolling road day Mmmm might just have to get a bigger turbo to go with the 2.5 now

Scott

 

Nice one Daz, what turbo and boost did you need to use?

 

John, turbo is same as on my '5.

bob

 

Well done Darren 450 here we come

 

yes john, as bob says same as his, only get 1.7 bar boost on rollers though, pulls much more on road

 

graph from today

or to post image (may not always show as fotopix has been iffy as i recall):

Si

 

Is it laggy by any chance

 

actually m8, it aint that laggy at all, owe that to bob with his mapping skills

 

**** the power!!

395ftlb of torque!! quality!!

Very impressive mate

Rob.

 

cheers m8, dead happy

...thought i'd share it with my 'friends' who went from coventry area (see thread on midlands area) who went powwerstation on saturday, got nothing but a good slagging cause i went to a 'keep em happy' rolling road and now being basically called an ****

only tried to give a guy a bit of a lift based on my experience of 5 years scooby ownership ***make mental note-don't give anyone any advice ever again***

 

Nice..

Be interesting to see the 1/4times at elvington now

You will gain by loosing the microphone though

David

 

Daz, now you have taken the mic off the helmet, and you now have an extra 30+bhp, i think you would beat me on the 1/4 now.

Well done, to a bloke who likes his scoob.

Steven

 

Conrad

Nearly Seventy HP more than me ? DOH!

Edited because I cant Subtract 362 from 437...Derrrrrrrr.
