Have you run low 12's or are you using examples of "similar" set-ups to "prove" what you think you can run? Where is your time slip? Seeing how you pulled that Z (that is good for no more than 105mph trap) you'd have trouble hitting high 12's let alone run low 12's

I am in no way challenging a guy with a bolt-on STI + nobody is discussing handling in this thread. Go back to writing silly posts about oil coolers

With those numbers I feel like he should have pulled ALOT harder on you. Nice work.

i ran 13.3@101 at the track last time i was there with intake/exhaust. it was my second run ever with the car and i couldnt run it anymore because i did not have a helmet being in the 13's. was a pretty shitty run too but still wasnt allowed to run again. so yeah my guess is an assumption but experienced sti guys would agree. i guess ill just have to wait and see. btw justins z is reallly fast, you should give him a lil more credit

Im estimating-but you think with approx 50whp more over that i/e set-up your gonna run 1 sec faster? Doubt it. His Revup has nice mods, but without a tune the full potential isnt close to being unleashed...btw my car NA trapped 107mph, prolly the same or slightly higher than you would hit even now. The reason I mention the trap is cuz from a roll that is all that matters.

Bottom line-I still believe with the power your making even considering the run from a roll, you should have walked that Z, maybe he is faster than we all think-any track times from the OP?

i ran a 14.4 at 105 cant get it to move outta the hole,and that was before test pipes and spacer, so i dunno,if i could throw on some slicks i know i could knock that way down,everything after my 60 is good.

+1 The relationship between increase in WHP and Decrease in quarter mile times is definitely not linear.

Bench racing at its finest.

So because the "experienced" sti guys think you should be running low 12s
even though you haven't gotten into the high 12s.

You got a lot to live up to going from 13.3 to a 12.3.

For future reference ... you might not want to claim numbers
that your OWN car has not even come close to achieving.
