My buddy is bringing his turbo wrx to the race track in Feb or March. He has been a little smack talkin rasberry quief tart! We are going to race for money , so i can shut him up. He has already flaked on me twice @ the racetrack. But he always wants to race when we are chillin somewhere. I say everytime "save it for the track" penis face. He has a wr gay with a downpipe, boost controller, & intake. What will this fisher price, non torque mobile run in the quarter? Should I be scared or should I blast some Mudvaine, do a FAT burnout, launch @ 4,000 & be waiting at the finish saying "wait till I get my intercooled vortech" :lol:
the STi's have always been 2.5L engines (in the U.S.) anyway. They didnt want to run higher boost, so they built a new alum. engine with a 2.5L engine.
AWD has never been good at topend. They get all their power from 0-80mph.
oh and wrx arent that fast. theres a guy in the dallas fort worth dsm site who just got one for a DD(cause his modded spyder is always down) and hates it cause its slow from eveyrthing but the launch. he says if he tries hard enough he can outlaunch it(he has quaife lsd).
zim was hosting a vid of me vs a STi a while ago, we raced from a dig and we were dead even till about 60ish, he pulled. but then again i was on stock t25, i would eat that guy alive now.

Now if you refer back to that motortrend article where they raced the 03 cobra vs the sti then you should look at someone who can actually drive a cobra. I think they pulled mid 13s out of that thing. In stock form they run 12s with a good driver.
the only thing i could see him getting ya is in the hole, i raced a wrx with exhaust, downpipe, and intake rolling at 15mph and had an edge on him, at the time only had my intake as aftermarket. once you catch some traction, hes done for sure
