Fantastic Video.... smile.gif
What i noticed as an EX-WRX driver and now GT-4 driver is that Subaru its very powerful at low-rpms but at high rpms,close to 5000 are dead.Subarus are not heavy cars and they have the best lounch in my opinion.Now the GT-4 has excellent lounch(its almost like subarus) but it keeps pushing above 6000+!!!!!and if you notice the race you will see exactly what i`m talking about.I`m sure that both of cars in the race have modifications but they are running on stock turbos.
smile.gif BTW my WRX after 2 months of hard driving the 3rd rod was RIP and my GT-4 after 18 months of hard driving its like steel(TOUCH WOOD) tongue.gif tongue.gif

yes

exactly

if you watch the boost gauge on my wrx

at 3krpm its at 1 bar/14.7psi then at 5krpm, it drops to .7 bar, then by 6krpm its at .5 bar and redline is at 7k

for a turbo car, a stock wrx doesnt have great top end power.

thats why an ecu upgrade helps so much, it stops that boost drop off, which for me, when i get my UTEC, will result in 100 more hp AT THE WHEELS at redline

i have all the parts for the stage 3 setup, the fmic is on the way, and utec will come in a month or so.

my friends said to get the utec first, since it would give huge gains with the stage 2 maps, but i wanted to eliminate heatsoak, plus the TXS fmic kit was on sale from $1500 to $999!(utec is $1000)
