badass Joe! youll have to give me a ride

[blacksti]

yea im good that was my first guess when you said bigger then a red... so what kit are you gonna go with cause its rotated right?

[I'm Slow]

badass Joe! youll have to give me a ride
^ of course......I still remember the ride you took me on in the hulk. I can't wait ;)

[I'm Slow]

yea im good that was my first guess when you said bigger then a red... so what kit are you gonna go with cause its rotated right?

yes rotated......I am probably going to have Roque from BVP do qa custom rotated setup but if worst comes to worst I will be running the UR kit

[-faded-]

^ of course......I still remember the ride you took me on in the hulk. I can't wait ;)

that wasnt too much fun, it was only 18psi. yours is going to be a much stronger beast

[blacksti]

yes rotated......I am probably going to have Roque from BVP do qa custom rotated setup but if worst comes to worst I will be running the UR kit

hmmm let me know a price.... because i drove the sti last night for the first time ina month and i dont think i wanna sell it anymore lol.... me and ryan went to tampa and he was convincing me not to sell it

[I'm Slow]

hmmm let me know a price.... because i drove the sti last night for the first time ina month and i dont think i wanna sell it anymore lol.... me and ryan went to tampa and he was convincing me not to sell it

^lol, don't sell it man.......you are going to miss it. I will let you know what the pricing will be......Are plan was to produce a custom rotated kit and maybe market it. I can also get good prices on the UR stuff as well.

So, you are ready to go bigger and you jhaven't even felt the full potential of that green?

[05sti]

so so beatiful brings a tear to my eye.too bad i won't be able to see it. maybe when i go back to visit. living in VA now.

[I'm Slow]

Thanks, it is sooooo much prettier in person, lol! I sleep with it every night. I didn't know you moved? do you still have the car?

[05sti]

i still have the car and it's still registered for florida. shit is way to crazy. shit loads of subys up here. i left in march

[blacksti]

^lol, don't sell it man.......you are going to miss it. I will let you know what the pricing will be......Are plan was to produce a custom rotated kit and maybe market it. I can also get good prices on the UR stuff as well.

im still on 15psi lol and i already want a bigger turbo i know ill love it once its fully tuned but you know me ill get bored with it in a week

[I'm Slow]

im still on 15psi lol and i already want a bigger turbo i know ill love it once its fully tuned but you know me ill get bored with it in a week

^ I am sure if you get it tuned up and running how it should you will never want to sell.......but you will still want to go bigger;)

[I'm Slow]

I am tempted to leave the stock turbo on and try to break into 11's on the stocker before I upgrade it. My car has 12.2 easy in it.......a few more mods like header, injectors, cai, ewg, tgv deletes.....and 11.9 is attainable

But it is just soooo much easier to slap this on with supporting mods.....gadiel tune, and skip 11's all together :lol:

go for the 10s Joe, dont put the motor through that abuse when you know that abuse when you know that 35r is going on anyway

you need to swing by the house again sometime soon;)

[I'm Slow]

^ exactly what Gadiel told me......:lol: He said getting the stock turbo into 11's is so much work and stress on the motor that it's not even worth it.......only to say " I ran 11's on stock snail" lol.

I moved to apollo but next time I am out that way I will go over for sure.

what sucks is.......I will just be masturbating to this hta wheel for the rest of the summer;) Since this is a big setup I want to do it right the first time........but damn it cost a lot of money to do things right :lol:

[homemade wrx]

the give away for me was the 7 blades, not 6 ;)
its all those little details

[I'm Slow]

^ you are correct. This was actually given to me as a gift...... and the giveaway right off the bat for me was the FP tape on the box:) Once I opened it and saw the shiny 7 blades......... I passed out and woke up with my penis in the hotside.

[badmutha]

bout time! your gonna love that thing.im still debating 40r 0r 42r!:crack:

[I'm Slow]

bout time! your gonna love that thing.im still debating 40r 0r 42r!:crack:

how about HTA 40r? best of both worlds

That's why I wanted hta 35r........no need to upgrade the turbo in the future.

[LDadrenaline]

i guess 300whp was just wayyyy too slow.....

[I'm Slow]

^ *cough* 337whp*cough* lol but actually the low 12's is what is too slow......it's fun .....just not fast.

Seriously though have you felt 500 + awhp ? It will make you shit yourself and put the biggest smile on your face at the same time;)

[LDadrenaline]

yeah ive ridden in my friends dinan m5 which has 550+ at the flywheel (forget the actual number they claim).... its really just unneccessary power. i am very content with the 310whp i have.

if you feel low 12s really isnt fast enough, i dont get it, but its your car lol.

[blacksti]

haha yea im not happy till i get 9s

[I'm Slow]

^lmao and then you will wany 8's.....it never ends:lol:

LD: 12's is quick but the car has so much more potential and I want to take advantage of it. It's the whole reason I bought an STi, I would have kept my wrx if I wanted to stay 300whp and 12's

[blacksti]

im just gonna put the car in my moms name im tired of all this high insurance bs i could use it for parts... i need to go fast really fastttt!

[ryan_west06]

Kyle, i got dibs on the 20g once you sell it but if you dont get off your ass and get a job so you can sell it im just gonna buy a new 18G and port/coat it..... Ill be happy with that. 11's is what i want :)

[LiL Sang]

Nice! What a cute turbo!!! hahaha :)

[racer_x]

12's is quick but the car has so much more potential and I want to take advantage of it. It's the whole reason I bought an STi, I would have kept my wrx if I wanted to stay 300whp and 12's

I agree -- 12's are fun, but I want a lot more juice for my street car... I was going to shoot for 11s on the stock turbo, but I think I'm just going to go GPmoto 32R kit when I can...

[racer_x]

BTW, 550 to the flywheel in an M5 isn't that fast... torquey, quick, fun I'm sure, but to the wheels is a different story altogether.

[JonLGT]

So how do I get a ride Joe? Sign a waver?

[LDadrenaline]

its RWD, dosnt have the kind of drivetrain loss we suffer from. and the dinan S2 package has the 3.91 rear diff (instead of the 3.46 it comes with), so it just screams.

the weight is also going to have a huge factor. that M5 weighs over 1k lbs than the STi. i would think just a 400whp STi would take that M5

[LDadrenaline]

ehhhh not as much as you think.... i was riding in a 380whp 335 and we got walked from like 50-130 by the M5

[I'm Slow]

So how do I get a ride Joe? Sign a waver?

lol, just wear a diaper.


LD: So, would you rather track your car with 300whp or 500whp? 500 awhp is hardly unnecessary especially if you track the car......you should know this man.

[Jewbu]

damn Joe you are making me jealous,i need to start buying parts for my STI.

[LDadrenaline]

lol, just wear a diaper.


LD: So, would you rather track your car with 300whp or 500whp? 500 awhp is hardly unnecessary especially if you track the car......you should know this man.

300whp.... if you add that much power you really throw off the balance of the car. if i had 500whp i would probably need 18" wheels and an even more massive BBK, at least 295s, some aero, etc.

[-faded-]

going with AEM or Hydra on this setup?

[blacksti]

i hear aem is booboo for stis

[-faded-]

i hear aem is booboo for stis

nah, just have to know what you are doing. Hydra is still best in opinion

[blacksti]

ss told me at qsl that aem is more for wrx and hydra for stis

[-faded-]

ss told me at qsl that aem is more for wrx and hydra for stis

just more user friendly

[Apexi wrx]

THey dont make aem for stis

[I'm Slow]

aem is not compatible with the sti because of the drive by wire......Hydra is the only option. I will probably do UTEC first and then upgrade to Hydra unless I can find a deal on one

[blacksti]

wonder where fadeds getting his info then lol

[I'm Slow]

300whp.... if you add that much power you really throw off the balance of the car. if i had 500whp i would probably need 18" wheels and an even more massive BBK, at least 295s, some aero, etc.

very true, upgrades would be needed for a track car. But street car and aoccasional track event its fun. After riding in Steve and Chris- TCKChris (Chris car made 512whp) I new 30r or 35r was the route I wanted to go

[ryan_west06]

Im not familiar with AEM or hydra tunning but is everyone doing this because of the launch control??

Ive got a general sense of tunning from rideing with jeff (snowman) and him showing me how to do it!

Id like to actually get into tunning soon!

you can tune way more in depth with a standalone

[-faded-]

herbs getting to my brain. now that i think about it, the people i spoke to that had AEM were hybrid WRX's with 2.5L swaps.

[05sti]

will you have to reinforce your block with a bigger turbo? Since you will be boosting a lot more. What was your set up when you ran 12's?Sound like a newbie but rather know these questions now than later.

[TCKchris]

ill give it a trial in my car while we wait ha.

[-faded-]

his 12s setup is all stock with bolt ons and meth. he wont have to build the block due to im sure Joe will have a good tune on it.

[I'm Slow]

Yeah, it's going to be conservative.....I want the block too last as long as possible

[05sti]

i thought you would have to reinforce going with such a big turbo.

[blacksti]

the ej25 is wayyyyyy stronger then you think if you have a proper tune

[I'm Slow]

^DEFINITELY....I would like to keep the stock block as long as possible and even still i would probably replace it with another stock block.....maybe better pistons and rings

[05sti]

i didn't know a good tune is what it takes for the egine not to blow. thanks for the input!!!!

[blacksti]

joe you inspired me to keep my car and get something in the works

[albie1kanobi]

i didn't know a good tune is what it takes for the egine not to blow. thanks for the input!!!!

yeah there are lots of 500+ awhp sti running on stock blocks. its a very very stout engine.

but its better to say that a good tune will make ur block last longer. with enough power, wear and tear will catch up to it.




nice choice joe but i would have went bigger :D :crack: :D

[badmutha]

i went with pauter rods , cp pistons, stock crank and 8:2.1 compression. pretty strong motor ,takes alot of abuse.

[LDadrenaline]

yeah im surprised how well these engines hold up. ive grabbed third instead of fifth twice from being thrown to the side of the car lol....both times revved above 8k and the engine still runs great

[I'm Slow]

but its better to say that a good tune will make ur block last longer. with enough power, wear and tear will catch up to it.

This man is exactly right......know wonder we are good friends...:lol:


joe you inspired me to keep my car and get something in the works

Hey, What are dad's for? Anytime son......anytime! So, what are you thinking about? If I know you as good as I think, it's probably HTA 42r with NOS!!!!!!! :lol: j/k

[albie1kanobi]

This man is exactly right......know wonder we are good friends...:lol:



MARRY ME!

[blacksti]

This man is exactly right......know wonder we are good friends...:lol:

hahah youre good

[-faded-]

now that setup maybe need to get some work done to the block but damn, it would be a scary setup

[homemade wrx]

The only reason I personally see the NEED to build a block is if you are going to be making 500+whp constantly as it is a ticking timebomb then, especially for the average owner who doesn't keep a fressh tune on it all the time.

OR

Someone who it trying to shape there tq curve for a specific reason, like me.

Of coures building for factor of safety is always good too.

[I'm Slow]

I expect to be around 550whp on race gas.......i am confident that Gadiel can keep the stock block in check for a little while. I would only run the race gas tune at the track. I plan on driving around on pump at around 400-450 with meth for safety
