Well the cost is alot but being sponsored by THE RACING LINE helps, I will defo get some vids and dyno graphs up as soon as the guys get a chance to finnish the car. They are so busy at the moment Thats the downside of sponsorship sometimes your car takes lesser priority

Since the inception of the Spec C, the Impreza has caught up and overtook the Evo

Hello all,

Sorry for the delay but finally we have some dyno numbers its only had a few pulls on dyno and there is plenty of mapping left to do. This is the first u.k evo x to hit 500hp Its been an epic project but we have achieved our goals... the car runs stock cams and intercooler.






Regards,
GUM

Well it didnt take long lol! We needed the torque up and the stock cams were making the engine struggle to consume the air from the turbocharger. We went for a Cosworth cam install and the new results with mapping time were estonishing







KIND REGARDS,

LOL in your dreams Banny, Imprezas are good for a few things..... rods through blocks, failing big ends..... etc etc.

The evo is leaps ahead

WHat impressed me the most was the first RR figure of 409 bhp from the standard 300. Proves how detuned these cars must be from the factory with little more than an exhaust, fuel pump and remap using standard turbo/injectors and extracting an extra 109 bhp
