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 05-22-2013 06:34 PM

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 05-22-2013 11:50 PM

Enjoy the rain friday/saturday Tony!

Formula413 05-23-2013 01:50 AM

Jeez, what a negative nancy

KLAB 05-23-2013 01:31 PM

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 05-23-2013 07:41 PM

yeah no real road courses around here.

941LE 05-23-2013 11:14 PM

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

ILuvPizzaTimes10 05-24-2013 01:00 AM

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

941LE 05-24-2013 01:56 AM

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

My84Z 05-24-2013 04:13 AM

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

SLP IROC-Z 05-24-2013 06:38 AM

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.

Have you run this sti yet at the track? with or with out the launch controll and no lift shift?

941LE 05-24-2013 11:39 AM

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.

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 05-24-2013 01:00 PM

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.

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 05-26-2013 08:45 PM

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

941LE 05-27-2013 02:52 AM

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