Modifications:

Microtech LT8S ecu
TD04L forester turbo
2.5 inch turbo back exhuast
Sard fuel pressure regulator
Turbosmart boost controller
Front mount intercooler
Custom exhuast manifold
Full whiteline rear adjustable bar


What time could i do with the turbo i have and the supporting mods with approx 12psi. Obviously i know ther are many variables like traction driver skills, but what could the car be capable of. What about max 15psi. Yeah i know i got an aftermarket ecu and turbo, 20psi is out of the question cos i know they will blow, so i want to run conservatively.

yeah im pritty sure the english drag strips must have a massive incline to them.

Hal fra or what ever its called must be massivly down hill as they manage to get times of 6.2 probably along with other rediculous times lol

man u guys throw things out of proportion. Shows your level of respect for fellow enthusiasts of other nations isnt high. then you all wonder why they wont share tuning, set up, specs, tips and advice.

this thread didnt take long to loose its direction and all the poor chap wants is some respectable advice.

it sounds like you have a well set up car, you wont acheive good results right away but if you are open minded and play with your tyre pressures suspension set up wheel and launch technique then you can expect a time in the mid to high 13sec range if you are persistent, spend time to dial your set up in and always belive you can go faster.

If i do an auto conversion and fit a hi-stall converter, i would crap all over the manual box aye, thus better times. My boost starts at like 2300rpm, so if i get a 2500-3000 stall converter, ill slingshot like a top fuel car.

I dont know if you will manage a 0-60 of 0.8 seconds on the first run mate, may take a few practice runs first...

depend's alot of how good of a driver you are, i managed 14.2 in semi striped glanza, similar mods apart i was running later ct9 @ 1.15bar on 195/50/15 r888 tires, saying you have td04 that will give you more power so my gues would be 13.8-14.0

Power is nothing if you cant drive! Forget about parts and mod's for a little while.....and just practice launching, correct tyre pressure! Get used to your car and how it handles ;)
