Default How could I have kept up with a evo 9 fq 320?

My wrx was mapped by JGM. Gives approx 311/317. Thought I would have been left wanting. Are these evo's not really producing what they say?

You might be a better driver than him My WRX PPP had no problems when I joined the LancerEvo boys for a run to Whitby, even bullying some of them out of the way for holding me up

I only changed the turbo to an Andy F Hybrid. No need to bother with the intercooler below 350bhp. The reason JGM had to stop was the injectors were reaching capacity. I got all the exhaust decatted with a prodrive sportcat. It's enough because the next levl is gearbox, forged piston, big big brakes.

At Santa pod this year i went up against an Evo 6 to which the owner said was producing just shy of 400bhp, we had a chat whilst waiting to go out.

I ran a 13.2 to his 13.4..My STI RA was dyno'd@285bhp.

I think their cars are fast but I think they are manufacturing their own figures.

No need for a flame suit, you just bought the wrong Impreza if you wanted it to be as fast as your 6.

Why is it hard to beleive a 311bhp car could keep up with a 320bhp car??

It keeps up with fq 320. No problems. The turbo kicks in at 2,000 FULL at 3,000 all the way to 7,000. No Lag.

your evo was running 350 and only manged a 12.6

ki8lla was running 310bhp and managed a 12.6
bob's car 340bhp uk car managed an 11.7 or 11.8
