Blasphemy!!

The 22B is an absolute ROCKET when tuned!

Right: when tuned. But so is a WRX STi. And the WRX has better out of the box performance, and it's 20,000 cr. less (more tuning money). The 22B is understeer city.

Believe me, no one wanted to like that car more than I did.

Okay, I see your point. Well said.

Just 400m tested my WRX STi yesterday. With track gearing, she ran 10.7...mmmm
 
10.7...very nice....

I don't usually test 1/4 mile in GT3...the last time I tried was with my turbo Del Sol...wheelspin city...I only managed 15s :!: despite a ballsy power/weight ratio. :(

Yeah, the really nice thing about the WRX is the AWD. I can just dump it at full revs and she'll burn them all the way through 2nd, but this appears to be the best way to get optimum acceleration.
 
Too true....but it does make sprinting away from the start easy. :burnout:

I take back that 1/4 mile thing....my best is 12.1 in a Griffith 500. Stock (I think) no TCS.
 
:)

That's what I love about them. Nothing like powersliding through a 4th gear corner...mmmmm
 
hm, I just noticed your WRX had a "snorkelectomy"...what exactly is the snorkel, and why did you remove it? Do Imprezas have resonators on the intake like Hondas?

Yep. This one is designed (on the WRX, anyway) to quiet not only the intake, but also the turbo and BOV.

Sounds MUCH better without, and opens up about 5 crank horsepower. Turbo spools a few hundred RPMs sooner also.

:fdevil:

Yeah, an uncorked intake is indeed sweet...even my little 98 Integra RS develops a vicious snarl when I stand on it. :D

Say, do you monitor the site at work, or do you just have the day off today (like me!)?

I can't imagine why! :lol:

It seems like with a bit more tweaking you would be able to run 8s or lower...maybe?
