thanks secret agent whats the power output??
cheers
duncan

SecretAgentMan

A good guesstimate is around 330-350 at the crank (taking the trap speed into consideration).

I haven't dynoed it yet, and frankly I don't really feel the need to either - the car runs very well I don't feel like I need a paper telling me it is/isn't or should.

/J

dlatch

i aggree but its always nice to know for sure

SecretAgentMan

Thanks for adding my car.

Mod list...hmmm...where to start?

The ones making the car shift in a straight line perhaps?
Possum Link, IHI VF23 running 1.4 bar, HKS fmic, ceramic 4-paddle, STi engine and tranny mounts, Walbro fuel pump and 16" Kumho R-compounds.

Mapped and built by yours truly.

So one could call this the S.A.M. edition.

SecretAgentMan

Does it weigh 1150 kg's with you in it?



I'd say you're running a bit more power mate.

dlatch

cheers Rob
your time is on the site

tweenierob

Sorry mate, not estate just estimate(est.) for my power figure,
other figures for the day are 60ft 1.804 and 330ft 5.327..
As far as my power estimate, i cant really say for deffo but that would be my guess as my car is a 240bhp model with mods so took a guess at that?????
Rob
will break 11's on the 6th of oct!!! lol

95 WRX RA

SecretAgentMan

I can't believe the times you guys get.
...as NO 350 hp cossie, scoob nor evo have been CLOSE to low 12's up here.

Must be an air thing.

Or some of us are full of it.



/J

P.S. What does a stock STi (not a lightweight, silly low geared version) do the quarter in - low 13's?

SecretAgentMan

There's an explanation though - us turnips might be crap at driving..
