What can I expect to run with stage II plus uppipe? This would be with some weight reduction and drag radials. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

First off don't run drag radials. Regular tires are fine.

The WRX is very driver dependent. A good driver can pull low 13s with Turboxs stage 2 setup. If you are an average driver you should expect mid to high 13s. If you need some practice you will run in the 14s.


So its very hard to say how fast you will run. But low 13s are possible with the stage 2 setup. I ran 13.33, and 13. 39 one day with the stage 2 setup. Thats down here in S. Florida.

Thanks. That's about what I would hope. Do you have the uppipe as well? I can't seem to find any power figures for just the uppipe. It involves a lot of labor, so I'm just wondering how much it will actually do.

13.57 @98 with mbc and air filter.

I sure hope its faster than mid to low 13's.

A 13.3 in florida is a high 12 second pass at a good track tho so keep that in mind.

Uppipe is usually good for 8-12hp of so. It will also help your turbo spool up faster. Don't expect a big difference in performance though.

Just remember the WRX is very driver dependent. I watched a guy the other day that could only run 14.7 with exhaust, mbc, and stage 1 unichip. A good driver should be able to pull mid 13s with these mods.

Also make sure to get Turboxs high performance boost controller of one similar. Don't run the abc bleeder valve setup the comes with the stage 1, stage 2 setup. It really hurts performance.

When I switched to the HPBC my 1/8 mile times dropped .2-.4 tenths on average vs using the abc bleeder valve setup.

My car is a TXS Stage II car. I've run a best of 13.79 @ 96.96mph which basically equates to 13.20's-13.30's if the car was running on the mainland...
