Nice pics and videos! It was a blast. Definitely want to go again after I take care of the tire and brakes issues and get some actual lap times. Although I wills say that after the first two runs my brakes got significantly better. Maybe the first two times out I was burning off crap from the instal...

Yea I'm sure with slicks I could hit a 12 up here. I just don't care enough about the dragstrip to drop that kind of money on something I'll only use a couple times a year. I did run a 12.6 @ 114 in Tulsa last summer on the same street tires. Won't be hitting that trap up here though without quite ...

What was your 60' on that run? I trapped 109.6 but only ran 13.3 because of my 2.18 60'. I'd imagine yours was under 2 sec being AWD. 1.9 60ft. Best so far is a 1.8 60ft on the stock vf52 turbo. On the bigger 20g i am having a hell of a time launching. Its either bog or glaze clutch. Clutch holds p...

Yea after the clutch slipped after the launch i took it easy on the shifts. Really could use flat foot shifting. I should hit mid to high 12s with LC and FFS.

Not that I know of. The WRX is pretty basic honestly.

WRX Budget Build nearly hits 12's!

Couple weeks back I took the 2012 WRX to Bandimere to get a new time on the td05 20g. 13.0@109mph. I like the trap speed but the ET should have been deep into the 12's. In the video you can see that I am having trouble launching the car without glazing the clutch in first. Possibly launch control wi...

Do not do the Hyper Tech. I ran it for about 10k on my old Speed. It is a crap tune and will not work very well at altitude. I think I was peaking at 14psi on the HT and decided to run an MBC with it to pull it up to 18psi. The AP also provides you the ability to log and and monitor the critical asp...

Log DI fuel pressure with your AP. If fuel pressure is solid it can be a few other things.
