Default Individual Throttle Bodies + 98 Legacy Dyno sheet

3rd gear run, open element mesh filter, Magnaflow Muffler, otherwise 100% stock with 145l miles on the mill. Oh, and a RWD conversion so that I can use the www.XATRacing.com dyno (where I work)



I thought it interesting that I hade more torque than HP, but I guess it only makes sense out of a 2.5l DOHC four. It feels a bit less torquey since swapping the OEM muffler out for the Magnaflow one, but at high RPMs feels like I have better response. Upcoming upgrades include cams (open to suggestions) Megasquirt, full catless exhaust, and ITBs with throttle injection (open to suggestions, but I will most liklely use CBR throttles since they come in pairs).

Right now I'm only 50 lbs more than stock GDAs and am running the 4.11:1 rear diff with 185/65/15s, but will soon be upgrading to a 4.3:1 NA Auto Mk III Supra rear differential. I'd like to just keep up with the stock EJ20 crowd, since (love it or hate it), this is a drift car.

Thanks for any input!

Well, maybe I;m the only one who cares about this, but I just bought these on Ebay:

They look pretty promising to me, and at 44mm a piece, ought to be plenty big.

The rwd is awesome - the symmetrical design of Subarus and the benefits of a low-slung boxer motor aren't fuly realized with the understeer caused by AWD. I still love AWD, but for drifting in a low-powered car, RWD is the way to go!

I'm not sure how big the VFR aparatus is, but it looks like I might be able to utilize everything including the fuel rail and TPS, and just run Megasquirt to bypass the MAF... I will see when they arrive in the post!
