Afternoon all, yeah that's was me out on track in my Subaru as usuall. (Combes my second home) haha.
Just fitted some 245 Federall rsr track tyres fri eveining and rc8 pads so had even more grip and braking power so was giving it all it had and more.
Ended up doing a 20 min session due to the top gear lot being out and there and I managed to do over half a tank and lapped them guys 3 times😁.
Basic spec is standard being on 96k and standard clutch from new.
Homemade DIY rotated adapter with BRD billet td06 20g @1.6 bar,
Japspeed front mount, Japspeed de cat d pipe, RAMAIR big induction filter and sfs Honda civic type r inlet pipe. 666 flow matched injectors, Japspeed tubular ported headers and fully mapped by Martyn j @ enginetuner(car gets red line solid for the whole session so his mapping is aweosme).
424 hp and 415lb/ft torque @ 1.6 bar.
Many thanks Chris

Hi Chris

Sounds like an amazing setup. I actually thought it was 500++ because of the way it moved! I enjoyed watching the car, it was taking the corners nicely and didnt look laggy accelerating out. I saw u started at the back and then within a couple of laps you were at the front lol.

Well driven and once again nice STi man

Only stays in one piece and going so well due to the mapping from your end.
Thanks again 👍

Did going rotated on the 20g make much difference?

Great idea if it did

Excuse the late reply, yeah prior to rotating the turbo it made 410/405 @ 1.7.
After the rotation it made
424/410 @ 1.6 bar.

A lot more efficient flowing inlet track and downpipe now after rotating the turbo.
Be interesting to see what it makes @ 1.8 bar when I've got my rcm headers on and mapped again @ ENGINETUNER by Martyn j. 😁
Cheers Chris
