  1. I can almost see that intercooler hiding behind that bumper and all those other mods through the hood too! is that the best you can do? Nice rice wing by the way!
  2. I checked one of the threads on the BBS forum and they said Brullen makes an exhaust for the car, but I checked thier website, and they only list one for the 2.5RS. Also, are there any intakes besides the MRT RamPod for this car?
  3. Does anyone know of a company that makes an exhaust system for the turbo legacys? If not, what is required to fit an Impreza exhaust? I heard that the mid or rear section needs to be lengthened and that the hangers dont line up, but do all the bends and such clear the body?
  4. I dont want to get involved, but a FMIC will not add power on a dyno. there is little to no airflow across thecore so the intake temp will probably be just the same as it was without an IC. And why do you seem to insist that a front mount oil cooler would do anything but cool the oil? if anything cooler, thicker oil will use up horsepower, so I dont see how that would work. Why didnt you list your fuel mods earlier, and how do you have the stock computer controlling camaro injectors? I could see the computer MAYBE driving them, but your car must idle and run like crap! Oh, and I have built motors, so...
  5. keith, Sent you a PM. How does that turbo work for you? not too big for the engine is it?
  6. That is beautiful! I was thinking that when i make my own, I will need to get the driver's side pipe really short, or make the passenger's side long because I would want an equal length header. Any chance of you making one of those for little old me?
  7. Im not the only one!!! Red T-wagons rule! Im planning on all the mods you have done so far (some finished) plus some more extreme ones most people probably wouldnt do. Would you be able to get some pics of the parts you made for it? Yes, lots of detailed pics to drool over! Im very interested in the turbocharger its self, can you tell me more about that?
  8. Ed, shoot me an email about that rallycross school... Corky, Im pretty sure the A4 doesnt have a trailing arm rear suspension... :moon:
  9. I have an Autometer OP gauge and it reads low (like 25 or 30psi) at idle and about 60psi at high rpm. Hope that helps!
  10. I was running bosch plugs (not very well, however) and I just got some NGK V-POWERS and ill see if they make any difference. Also the V-POWERS are supposed to come pregapped, I double checked the gap, and it was spot on!!!
  11. I dont mean to sound like a snotty little kid or anything, but a larger rear anti-roll bar will have the same effect in FWD as in 4WD. The difference you're feeling is the tendency for the car to use engine braking more efficiently, lifting and thus unweighting the rear end, allowing it to rotate more easily.
  12. other 360s, kids busted tricycles and other stuff like that!!! oh and those big motorized tonka/hot wheels cars too!
  13. I dont need the gross vehicle weight, I need the actual weight. your RX better not weigh 3600 lbs if my dads WRX weighs 3000!
  14. I still need to download a language converter so I know what that website says!!! how much do you think it would cost to ship wheels to the US?
  15. didnt you say they had the wrong PCD? What is PCD anyway?
  16. I still might be interseted in hen's teeth!!! do you think you could get me a set?
  17. dang it! do you know if you could hook me up with a set from NZ?
  18. Sorry, I ment fuel cut. This is starting to get somewhere. how much more does an 89 gl10 turbo wagon weigh than an RX 3dr or sedan?
  19. If you had to choose, which would you take? which maf is happier with boost?
  20. a lot of the differences you mentioned sound like stuff that was done to all RX's... Maybe DrRX can help.
  21. I might be in the market for an EA82 turbo wagon. I would be modifying it, and I know that the gen 3 heads would be the best of those to have, but what other significant factors are there? Ive heard of the electronic boost cut, and what years were affected by that? Thanks for the help fellas!
  22. Thats very informative! I wonder if copper head gaskets might help with your overheating problems. Just a thought, but anyway, do you have any more pics of the car, other than what is on the site's season photos? Id also be interested in some video if you can swing it! PS do you know how many sets of those WRC wheels that japanese company has?
  23. I looked at your build page and I was left with a few questions. What mods if any were made to the car? how does the suspension hold up to jumps (ie does it bottom out/are you bending stuff?) how competitive is the car?
