Impressive graph's. I can see that the curves indicate a very quick car in real world driving conditions. I really do like you car - such a sleeper. The only real giveaway from the outside is the FMIC. Very jealous mate.

Not a fan of sticker-charging!

Thanks for the comments!

Now if only I could find a non-turbo bonnet!

You know, I have been trying to find one for 6 months now. I even went so far to call people that had their non-turbo for sale and ask if they would be willing to swap bonnets. You wouldn't believe how many times I got cussed out! Really!

I don't know maybe you are. APS said those are some of the highest numbers they have ever seen for a 'small' turbo like the S/R30. You can chase big HP number that will impress your friends on the WWW. I am interested in a fast real world car that doesn't loose its driveability.
Why didn't I buy an STi.... Maybe because they weren't released in the USA until '04? Plus is sure is fun to hear "but its just a WRX".

I remember when the car was getting mapped there was a guy there that had a UK300 and when he saw 263hp on the screen he looked over and said not bad, you are up there with a STi now, I said... thats at the wheels! <insert dumb look>



Just wait for the new power figures when I get back from WRC w/ a remap for the alcohol injection... I'm hoping for 300 WHEEL hp!

Updated, now with JDM 6 speed conversion!

You can also see it on page 103 of the May issue of Jap Performance Magazine! Just not with current spec or pics.

Updated power and engine pics!

Getting upset because no tuner here is willing to map a WRX past 350hp or 18psi on the stock internals. Guys in the states with my set up are pushing over 300 wheel HP.
