Around 450bhp
Basically a total rebuild, including gearbox and clutch... best to ask someone like andy F who had got into the 12's on a standard WRX engine but how long it will last....

fuz

sell your car buy a type RA then do the above

Adam M

andy got into the 11s for under 2k, but he did have RA gearing to play with.

Harj was running 12.7s with well under 400bhp too.

M0NEY

tweenierob was hitting mid 12s with his wrx and i think thats when he had around 370bhp

StickyMicky

ive got into the 12`s as well with my standerd ish wrx engine, and it wasnt that hard

12.97 and ive done 20k miles in that state of tune
no gear box rebuild, no new clutch
no blown engine

Paula Racing

can you give me a list of your mods please

Paula, I know one 12's WRX in nearby Trinidad might be into 11's now, of course there may be a few more but the one I know of has, at the very least:
Type RA gearbox
Turbonetics T4 turbo with external wastegate
APS front mount intercooler
3" catless exhaust
Link ECU
Nitrous
Plus every other misc accessory, BOV, catchcan and so on

iirc, andy was doing 11.8's with charge cooled TD05 but with lots of mechanical aids to allow standard ECU to cope with around 360bhp. he then ran 11.6's with fmic,20g and remap with around 440bhp , with different gearboxes. at this level though gearbox consumption was an addiction which lead to slower more sympathetic gearchanges.

my own UK has done 12.56 at 114mph with decat,TD05fe,fmic,remap to 340bhp with raised fuel pressure,headers/up-pipe....

..hell...even I managed a 12.72 @ 110 on the quarter, at the time running stock euro (same as english) gearing, VF23@1.4 bar midrange, and the ol' link ecu.

Getting off the line is what it's about - look at the 60-footer.

I made 12.15 with a VF22. Belive it or not.

i think P20spd has done 12.16 with around 340bhp and 325 lb/ft lat year @ elvington..

I think the 22b.com team will be quite scary this year at TOTB3
(do you not agree J? )

I'm hoping to at last get well into the high 12's myself @ scooby shootout too..

Now have new 'race' spec clutch as opposed the the old knackered OE clutch -
I think overboost to 1.7bar did for that within an hour or two whilst mapping..
With the OE one I was getting serious slippage in 3rd 4th and 5th.

Previously did 13.4 at Pod on a RWYB with that piece of cr@p OE clutch (UK MY00 with a few 'gentle' mods)

Delboy2

From Scoobyshootout 2003 - (P20SPD)Steven Darley Impreza Turbo Wagon 1/4 - 12.16s Speed - 109mph and from what I remember this was achieved with 358hp
The turbo(MD304) he was using at this time is currently for sale HERE

Cheers

11.66 @ 127mph my old WRX RA was running, that was on standard internals and a 99 UK gearbox, the RA ratios were slightly slower at 11.7 mainly due to the extra gearchange required.
As for how long it will last, well it now has a new owner and is still going strong Thats over 2 years now it has held the UK 1/4 mile title
(2 years 4 months to be exact )
I think the new owner may be about to 'perk it up' a little too......which is nice

i did 12.8 1/4 @ Sso recently.
I would totally agree with Conrad in that getting off the line quickly and getting a reallly good 60ft time is what really makes the difference....


my 60ft times were pants though


practise makes...

A lack of mechanical sympathy helps...

A 400bhp car should easily see repeatable low 12's
