heading in the direction of 400bhp in a blobeye.was wondering what times you guys are getting.car is wrx with sti8engine,6s box(uk),launch control at present running vf35 ect but planning on a gt30 type turbo and larger injectors ect.best time at present is 12.5.hoping to get 11.8/12.0.cheers guys.

 

All depends on setup, tyres, clutch, gearing, weight etc

Have you got a slip for the 12.5 run & what setup did you have to achieve this?

 

Sounds pretty quick mate

 

yes i have the slip,(not to clued up on how to post photos)was at crail to which we all cosider to be a **** track.as above car is originally a wrx 53 plate which now has the sti engine complete with avcs,6 speed uk box.vf35,sti pinks and intercooler.k+n panel filter,full 3in decatted,andrew carr remap with launch control set at 5200 rpm.ambient temp was quite low round about 5-8c.

 

Thats a very good time for a WRX with those mods.

 

Ran 11.9 on a 400bhp blobeye sti with no launch control so your target of 11.8/12.0 are achievable

 

Thats how you messed up your engine mounts....

 

 

You're just too violent

 

cheers sounds good to me.with the l/c ill be hopin for 11.5/11.8.

 

Gotta drive it like you stole it every once in a while

 

when i had my blue blob sti, and it was around the 400 mark.i was getting 12 sec dead.that was fully loaded with nothing stripped out.

 

You guys are making me feel down man. I got a 13 on my first time ever at pod. Plus i got more power, what crap driver i must be

 

Don't be down Kas, it's not easy to be so brutal on the cars, you have to be a real ba5tard to do so. If i couldn't fix the car myself, i'd never treat it the way i do at the pod

 

12.1 with no LC/ALS on our wagon with passenger(me) and from logs my brother shifted at 4500/5000rpm due Rev counter

Along with many factors the Clutch and tyres will be key..

My spec in my old Bugeye was simular to yours running a GT3076, but due to clutch issues (1000mile beaded in CG Motorsport). I couldnt get the ****** off the line neatly.... very disappointing day at 13.01 I think it was This was using the STI TMIC.

I never dragged the car after this with the FMIC, Headers and 20% meth map as the Grudgement days stopped the 1/4's before I sold the car, another disappointment

Im on my phone right now so cant tell (no 3G here), but I think this was it:

what would i get with a 380 type r ?

 

I`m in a similar position to the OP, Ran 12.4 in a JDM blob with 350bhp, no LC. Should be 430ish this year, and i`m hoping for 11`s, the way I see it:-

11.9/11.8 - Mission accomplished.
11.7/11.6 - Hell yeah!
11.5 or under - Crisp packet run?!?

 

As much as we can say you can get high 11's, it's all down to a number of things really. Tyres, suspension, temp, track temp, conditions etc

Just go out, see what you get and be happy with it

 

worried my gearbox will crap it self lol if i ride the clutch bit more will the strain be more on clutch than gearbox? still got the type r v3 dccd box

 

it's a lot harder than you think. get the sixty foot times down. that helps a lot. i found a 400hp car much easier to get off the line than my current 600hp car.

 

i got 13.2s in my old v2 wrx sti. never did know what bhp it was running but estimate about 330bhp.

106 mph

 

I agree. Only found out how hard it is when I actually went Pod for the first time.

A good launch is important along with a decent clutch + slicks. What was your setup at 400hp?

 

Don't get too hung up over slick's Kas. You will bog a lot more with slicks and would need to be brutal to get the best out of them
