I'm sorry I missed the new stock part?

Good run though. Those things are amazing.

 

Good time but I hardly consider that "near" stock. Full Exhaust and a AEM Standalone do not come come cheap.

i agree its not quite nearly stock with the aem.. but that just shows how much of a bottle neck the stock ecu is on those... i notice allot of people picking up computers as one of their first mods..

 

expensive, yes, but think of what it is aside from the price....

boost controller, exhuast, tuning.......can an STI do that? Or any other car below $40k?

besides, Tym is sponsered by HKS so he gets the exhuast for free. If only all of us could enjoy that luxary.....

 

Thats very impressive.

Nomie

 

which one was he.. i took pics of almost every run and i dont remember that

He didn't run in the EVO vs WRX shootout....he ran this elsewhere.

Tym's site is www.switzerperformanceinnovation.com

 

He ran the car at the EVO vs Subaru event, only 2 passes though due to slipping clutch. Its his wifes car and she has to go to work on Mondays, so no breaking it for testing.

 

In the years of me racing, that car is considered stock. It does need a dollar value to make it stock. If anything, any mod which can be swapped back top completely stock is the best mod.

Either way. nice numbers.

 

Thanks Gary.

 

full exhaust
**standalone**
and a $1500 clutch


a dsm wtih
an intake, exhaust and MBC is considered lightly modded.


near stock to me is a drop in ,mbc and maybe a catback.


when you put an entirerly different computer in a car, honestly, it is no longer in the "near stock" catagory.


either way, that is a nice time. and i'm sure the 60 foot was killer.

 

To me that is nearly stock. Stock Bottom end, stock head, stock everything but a computer change, and some more flow with boost? Stock tires, stock wheels, full wieght, that is pretty much stock to me. nice time, cool mph, what was the boost on though? 25 ish?

So what if the computer was changed. Stock turbo, injectors, fuel pump, etc. It would be less impressive to me if it have a reflashed ECU or SAFC and a larger turbo, injectors, etc.

After allowing the engine to breath the biggest asset is the AEM P&P. Most peoples' problem with that is:
A. They can't afford it.
B. They don't know how to use it.
C. If "B." applies it cost alot more to get it right.

IMO: lack of funds and/or knowlege shouldn't be a deciding factor with the number of major components left unchanged

 

Impressive. A buddy here runs 12.4-12.5's @ 110-112mph. Cams, AEM EMS with rough tune, filter, ACT clutch and full exhaust. Stock boost believe it or not.

The ET's suck since he babies his launches. It's his DD and he didn't enjoy swapping in the clutch.

 

The stock turbo is a large version of the 16g, the fueling obviously can handle whatever the turbo asks, the ecu will now control timing, fueling, stutterbox, etc. The stock longblock has been proven to over 500whp, is it any surprise that someone could have pulled this off?

Nothing against the run, its a great time for so few mods, just it doesnt seem to me to be of any surprise. Those cars are given quite a few beefy parts right out of the box. Hence alot of their parts are "upgrades" for us. I mean come on, 19psi right from the factory .

we each have our definitions it seems.

it's all good though. Speed is speed.

 

Any of you guys seen the video of the AMS 2.4L EVO stroker taking out all the V8's ?

Nice runs, good to see someone using the 16G, most EVO guys swap it out quick.

 

Evos are damn impressive. I am pretty sure curt brown ran a 10.9 on the stock turbo in his evo.

What can a '03 Cobra do with a pulley upgrade, K&N, X-pipe and catback?
