The golf started in front of me but i thought i could pass him easily , this was not the case i struggled to get by him . My WRX turbo is a standard import , I only mod that has been done so far is my back box is a STI and I have a panel K&N filter . I think the need is there to up the power !!!!.
I ended up doing 135mph on a bypass to get rid of him.

 

PMSL ..............

Give it 5 mins mate ..... thats all i'll say.

Gary

 

I have wasted one of them on the A303.....

Gutmann is right tho.... Are you ready for the response!!!!!

 

Sorry I missed you point , what are you saying ?

 

I think you're a big bag of plums and don't deserve to own a 1.0 ltr fiesta let alone a subaru. That ok for starters?

 

nice and........erm.............to the point Gary

 

subarus arnt the fastest cars on the road,when will people start realising this

 

You need a classic mate

seriously though,

Your WRX will suffer from four wheel drive transmission loss once its rolling despite your fantastic 0-60 times.

My Classic has an STI back box and filter and i'd be amazed if it made any more power than standard.

The new breed of hot hatches i would imagine would be a match for a standard WRX in a straight line i.e. VXR, GTI and ST, although off the line they will be scrabbling for grip.,

A buddy of mine has an Astra SRI Turbo and trust me its not slow once rolling and i'd be hard pushed to leave him.

Get your WRX decatted and re-mapped and it would be a different story.
Totally transforms the car - so i've been told.

 

Yet another one!!!!

0-60mph 4.3 secs as standard.... Only supercars gonna beat that!!!!

 

have you done 0-60 in 4.3 in a standard impreza then? or are these the 'factory quoted' figures.I think you will find its between 5 and 6 secs to 60 in a standard impreza

 

have every intention in upgrading my scooby , tanks for the only sensible suggestion in this thread.

 

Well after promising not to spend a penny on my standard Classic i have now spent over a grand on it and i have not even touched the engine yet

Once you get used to the power it becomes second nature to try and want more!!!

Try WRC-Tech - they are getting some rave reviews at the moment!!!

 

If you ask your mapper to pay paticular attention to the midrange this can make the car sooo much more responsive....30 hp at 6500 doesnt feel that different....But add 30hp at 3000rpm and the car will pin you to your seat...This is why modern diesels feel so fast and even better after chipping...I recently saw a Golf GTTDi produce 195 hp and 300lbft of torque after chipping and it broke traction in first, second and third with ease...

 

What year is your WRX..?

And as the Chief has said decat/remap. Makes the car what it should have been from the factory..!

A mildly modded, remapped blobeye would need to be up against a seriously modded scoob (classic or not) to have any real world performance disadvantage..!

Don't believe me..? Take a lookie at this post #43:

But then this guy dosen't have a clue what he's talking about..!

Top speed? Brakng per4mance? n gear times? 30-70? Nope...lyk...letz roll out da traffik light GP favorite!11

 

Got a bit of a chip eh!

 

dont be too hard on mr 94 post newbie hes clearly under a strange illusion

My scoob destroyed a Noble M400 down the strip at santa pod but that doesnt make it anywhere near a supercar,it just proves im better at getting the power down from a standing start

 

Oh by the way, wot do u drive???

 

davyboy, go easy on him- after all, his name's not Typist Jim, is it?

 

97 actually!!!!

 

You old boys ........

 

 

....might be an idea to remove the reference to doing 135mph in a 60 zone???

 

sell yer stupid backbox and silly k and n thingy and go and get some driver training
