WRX Wagon on NOS Vs. VR-4/
Ok just kinda want to know what they are capable of running? I am going to race a WRX wagon tonight that has a 100 shot of NOS, MBC at 14psi, Full exhaust, K&N filter that is all i know he has. I have ran a 12.5 at 109 is my best times so far. So will he run anywhere near what i run? Thanks for any input. Jared

MBC...NOS....be lucky if he doesnt blow it up unless he's running some serious engine management and if he was I'm sure he has a turbo swap. If he's just with those mods and no EM then it's probaly a really badly tuned high 13 second car.

Ya, i asked him what eu he was running he said nothing. I looked he really has nothing, and still has the stock turbo, I know what they look like b/c a lot of 3/s guys run them after modifying the hotside. He said he is at 14psi. I will let you guys know how it goes, i will be getting video tonight. And thanks.

Can you run a crash beam with that FMIC?

Yeah thats what keeps me from doing the FMIC swap. I like me and my car to live in an accident. Plus I have heard that if the Insurance finds out after a wreck they can deny your claim.

If he's running NOS instead of regular N20, then you can never expect to win...

You sure are running a ton of mods for that timeslip... I did it with just a downpipe, fuel, and a MBC -- everything else was stock (see sig).
Anyway, I think it's funny anybody is spraying a 100 shot on a mostly-otherwise-stock WRX. Waiting for the results!

 Sounds like the outcome is exactly as I would have expected. You should have told that fool to stop murdering his rex.
