Good eyes J. We had just finished the tech install, and I was just checking the battery voltage before we started the motor for the first time. There was a lot of praying going on at that point.

What power are you getting then ?????

We don't have any rollers in my area. The only way I can calculate a rough estimate of hp is by injector duty cycles. The 550cc injectors will flow roughly 350 to 385hp at my given fuel pressure. Running 12psi of boost I see the injectors running at 80-85% duty cycle, so a very rough estimate would be somewhere around 300-320hp.

EJ25's setup way worse(no tech/280cc injectors) than this running 10psi have run numerous 13.0s@over 100mph. A friend of mine, and a lurker on the 22b bbs, ran a 12.64@113mph on race gas running over 1 bar of boost. That engine however threw a rod not long after.

The great thing about these motors is there high compression. I know you might think I'm crazy, but haveing high compression and still running 10psi yields great torque and hp w/o all the lag. HP is very linear, and comes on very strong at 2500rpms.

It might not be an STi, but its still a hell of a lot of fun
