550 Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 I hate to break this to you but at 17psi you were not at 300 hp :-\I have been in my buddies WRX at 16psi. AWD doesn't seem to slow him down.Oh yeah, and no one can chime in because nothing you said is fact. It is all opinoin, and heresay which we can choose to not believe because it is not proven.

Andrea Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Oh yeah, and no one can chime in because nothing you said is fact. It is all opinoin, and heresay which we can choose to not believe because it is not proven.Exactly. Unless you have video of this so-called beating, we are going to question everything you say.

larryo108 Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 I like the Subbies, but I agree the wing and hood scoops are ridiculous. I saw a tuner transformation on speed where they took an STI and ditched the rear spoiler, ditched the hood scoop (replaced both the hood and trunk with base model versions) put in a FMIC, and painted the wheels black. That thing looked money. The FMIC could have even been further hidden to give a complete sleeper look. I would have pimped that car in a second.

the underlørd Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 I still think a STI/EVO rear wing on a S70/854 would be MONEY.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larryo108 Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 I still think a STI/EVO rear wing on a S70/854 would be MONEY....I must disagree my friend. I think it would look horrid. Then I am not a huge wing on sedans kind of guy. I think that has been well documented... or at least documented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMK33 Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 My friend Mike took the huge/ugly wing off of his '03 STI , and he had to sign tons of wavers...as ugly as it is ...it does a whole lot for the car.-JMK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWD doesn't seem to slow him down.Oh yeah, and no one can chime in because nothing you said is fact. It is all opinoin, and heresay which we can choose to not believe because it is not proven.Ummm...do you not know that different engines make different HP at different PSI? My friend has a 300ZX TT which is 11 PSI stock and is 300HP. My car at 11 is 240, and the 2.0 WRX at stock PSI (I forget I think It ranged from 12-14 year to year) is 227HP. And I said I ESTIMATED 10HP for every PSI in my car. What could it be then-285 or something?? Big whoop. And how do you know it does not slow him down? Did he ever disconnect the rear axle and run the highway. There is no opinion-only fact or fiction. If you do not believe me, tell me I am LYING.Yeah and my friends and I have run withe STi's in Connecticut who thought they could shut us up.I will get that formula and more evidence to back up this AWD thing that I thought everyone knew about. Until I do, I will not post and you can talk behind my back all you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
550 Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I'm not talking behind your back at all. Anything I may say to someone else is in here... maybe not blatantly said, but lets read between the lines.Get a dyno of your car shut me up. Please..3 difference is cylinder size... UH OH.I'm/we not saying you are lying, maybe delusional, or wrong.Maybe they just didn't race, people do crazy things.Either way... I'm not to only one disputing it, so don't just focus on me. There are quite a few people on this board who think you just may be crazy.When you did your crazy math to find out how much difference the turbo makes on a car, did you include the differnt bore sizes and compression ratio. I meanMy carstock NA is 168 HP (at the crank mind you)my car is 190 HP(but the turbo alone does not nessacarily add that extra HP all on it's own.)Honestly it is pointless to argue with you because you have no proof, and this is the internet, anything is disputable.I raced a ferrari once... on the highway we did 120 MPH... he didn't pull away so I guess I must have help with him, right?
