2006 WRX (not an sti) with only: exhaust + meth injection + a tune on 93 octane... the 2006 wrx's are fucking strong...
350 wheel torque.... 20psi at 2400rpms...

and just for comparisons sake... a stock sti on this dyno puts down between 235-245whp...
...and this is a wrx. subaru did something right with the new 2.5 wrx's

think the 98 1.8t with a chip could take it?

Now if they could just do something in the style department.

that's nuts. now transplant everything into the bug-eye model and it'd be perfect!

Scoobies.. Love em or loathe em, they are fantastic cars!! (Rather have an Evo V personally, but no denying the capability of the scoobsters!)

HELL NO!...not even chipped would an 1.8 make that kind of torque at the same hp .....
^ Yes it could!
Those are some badass numbers too!

evo 9's are putting down crazy numbers as well. exhaust/boost controller and you have 340awhp

chipped 1.8t does make anything under 270whp and 360lb.ft of torque
btw, that modded WRX gives about the same numbers as a bone stock Z28 LS1 [:p]

but the ls1 gets all the power to only 2 wheels! i like my all wheel drive

he didnt say that a chipped 1.8T makes the same power
he said it could take on WRX like this one

a chipped/exhaust 1.8 wasn't even close to my car before a tune and these new wrx's are much much much faster with mods. I wasn't under the impression that chipped 1.8s are faster than stis? Maybe he didn't have the best chip?

wtf is meth injection?
jpsimon
01-28-2006, 03:55 PM
its like water injection... but with alchy. It gets injected into intake manifold, increases the octane and lets you run more boost safer.

oh methanol... i was thinking like meth like drugs for some reason.

i will agree with you there

daaaaaamnnnn! A non STI WRX with minor mods putting down that number?! Thats insane! Cant imagine how fast these subbies are gonna get when more mods come out.

the 06's have a 2.5 in stead of the 2.0 like they used to... like mine :(

I used to run water injection on my MR2 Turbo. Never used anything other than water though. I was more concerned with keeping temps down, rather than upping the boost though. Was happy to keep it at a mere 18psi! [:)]

Dosen't using methanol cut the engine life short?
Toff_The_Toffee
01-29-2006, 07:47 AM
Not heard that one. It will increase the octane in the same way toulene will, but never heard of it decreasing engine life. i was just too cheap to buy it!

I have been thinking of running meth injection when I do a new turbo but it is a matter of debate whether or not it is corrosive to engine components. Apparently it can cause piston rings/landings to fail prematurely but nobody that I know of has been using it for long enough to attest to its long-term reliability.

they've just gotten progressively less attractive. I mean, the old boxy 22B STi's were AMAZING! then the bug-eye came over here as the first wrx, and it was phenomenal. then they face-lifted it and it got 'meh'. now, hideous.

22b is amazing, but i love the bugeyes.. they are my fav (with my edm headlights of course)... the 06's are just ugly... although i do love the 06 rally car... it looks mean as hell.

yeah man, I want to get a reasonably-priced bug-eye wagon as a daily. I think that would a lot of fun!

i wish i had gotten a wagon originally. Ah well.

Haha. I was honestly about come post that, but you beat me to it! Of course, I'd be doing in jest while you're doing it out of ignorance. Oh well

im proud of my subie, i would rather have my wrx than almost any audi (with exceptions of course, see: rs4 wagon, s8)! But at least I have respect for a lot of cars unlike you who on the other hand is very close minded and ignorant. There will always be a more expensive car...
Hell, you are only driving an audi... get a fucking ferrari you kraut driving fool. [rolleyes] [;)]

Not ignorance. Just not my cup of tea. I've driven all the hi perf cars out there these days. Not to mention that I have owned, built, raced more high perf cars in my life too. So narrow minded doesn't come into it all.
I perfer real engineering to less than engineering.
Subie, still an ugly car, losta noise and no style. Except the newer body style, maybe.
Although the Forester is a decent small Mom & Pop or Family car.
Subie..."Built inexpensive to stay that way."
Seems to always come to mind.

And as for the Ferrari... I'll wait till my friend gets his RS4 and I drive it. And that would be the car of choice for me.
