[camarokid91]

auto x is laaaaame

Lol maybe if you don't know how to drive. Straight line is boring.

[c4boom]

auto x is cool but we dont own auto x cars shit mine is almost 4k with stock front suspension and a rear locker throw that thing into a turn and you will see some cone carnage

[Blue01Z]

joe LMK when your thinking! im finishing up the z shortly, its pretty much stock, had to do PS pump and alt this weekend, spent alot of my header y pipe money on that so it'll be mostly stock but ill still go and run! def want to do this!

I hear that, down to the last month here for the wedding. I could do a hangout though.

[camarokid91]

I wanna drive someone stock suspension camaro, I forgot what they handle like from driving/racing mine with all the suspension stuff done.

[Formula413]

I would still love to do auto cross.

[camarokid91]

I would still love to do auto cross.

I will be at Devens this weekend and probably every weekend this summer lol.

I'm just messing with you because its silly to say auto x > track day. maybe for you personally its more fun but I've spectated an auto x event and it was pretty boring compared to going to the track. But we all have our preferences. I've never been auto crossing tho I'd like to try it, have you drag raced? My car is auto so I dont think it would be as fun.

[CamaroRacing12]

i plan to build a 1987 porsche 944 w/ a cam only ls1 swap for auto x and cruising and will race at devens. my gf lives near downtown ayer.

I will be at NED this Friday night 5/24 and sat all day 5/25

[ls6monte]

Enjoy the rain friday/saturday Tony!

[Formula413]

Jeez, what a negative nancy

[KLAB]

I wanna make my 78 Z/28 a pro touring car for that but I wish there were road courses around here. Auto x would be like practice for that.

[CamaroRacing12]

yeah no real road courses around here.

[941LE]

I'd like to get up there soon to see what the STI does. Launch control and no lift shift.

[ILuvPizzaTimes10]

slow its an STI!!!!!!!!! Baahahahaha

[941LE]

i guess beating most of the LT1 here means its slow. Who knew?

[My84Z]

Pizza is that a challenge? I see a grudge race coming!

[SLP IROC-Z]

mike at what power level do people usually start putting external waste gates on those cars

[941LE]

mike at what power level do people usually start putting external waste gates on those cars

There's no need for one really if your staying with the stock turbo. IWG would be fine for that power level. I had one on my wrx cause I wanted the noise lol. The car will be getting a 44mm ewg once I get a Dom 3 or a FP green HTA.

[ZFreie]

i guess beating most of the LT1 here means its slow. Who knew?Have you run this sti yet at the track? with or with out the launch controll and no lift shift?

[941LE]

Nope I got the car in December. No lift shift is alright but still think I can shift it fast without using it. Launch control is fun and have been practicing with it so I don't look like a complete jack ass up there. Builds around 9psi before launching.

Builds around 9psi before launching.Should make a huge difference being able to launch with 9psi, what should the car be able to run? I have no idea what youve done to it lol

[941LE]

It should be into the 12s don't know how far it'll dip but a safe bet is high 12s. When I get home from work ill make a thread with what's done to it blah blah blah.

yeah i didnt mean with the stock turbo, haha. i figured theres some drop ins that still have an internal gate but obviously after a certain power level turbo options with iwg are not going to be an option.

[ILuvPizzaTimes10]

Challenge Accepted!!!!!

Who cares what people think man, the track is the best place to practice! Come up to street night sometime.

Maybe you could answer this, but wtf is up with that fluttery noise on STI's? Sounds like a flutter noise from the wastegate. I think it sounds weird but I notice its only Subaru's that sound like that...

[SLP IROC-Z]

the fluttering noise is surge. it will happen under load if the turbo is being pushed beyond its limits.

[941LE]

fluttering is also from a electronic boost controller. A manual boost controller doesnt have it.

[TrickrTreat]

Unless he's talking about the fluttering upon lift of the throttle. It's just like the turbo Buick regal's and its from the lack off a blow off/ bypass valve . The throttle shuts , compressed air has no where to go so it pushes back out of the inlet of the compressor housing. But , if they do have them then I'm wrong.

[KLAB]

I usually hear it when its still acceleration at the top of gears at the track. So prob like Joe and Mike said. It sounds weird to me lol

[941LE]

Stock turbo? How much boost? Stock boost controller or no?

[KLAB]

Not sure I just notice it as a spectator at the track on STI's running anywhere from 12s to 14s lol

[SLP IROC-Z]

i know the car youre talking about kev it compressor surges the entire way down the track

[KLAB]

yeah i hate that hahaha.

shhhh brbrbrbrbrbrb shhhhhhhhh brbrbrbrbrbr.

14 sec pass...
