Mike,

The car now has a 2.5 STi engine stroked to a 2.6 liter. The rest of the mods and other information will be ging on our site today, and I am working on it as we speak.

So it is not a JDM engine, much better. Though I wish I could have hit my 60ft a lot better. Oh well... what can I do. It was my second time at the drag strip ever.

Thanks everyone for the congrats.

Other noticable problems were the clutch and tranny, the clutch kept slipping in between shifts and by the time I was at the end of the strip the clutch would be like butter, barely grabbing at all. Guess I need a new clutch, though that is probably protecting the tranny right now.

Cheers,
Bill Knose

Damn that thing must move, if your still on a somewhat stock tranny I think your right the clutch must be saving it the torque from that must be impressive.

Mike <--- Jealous of your car!

Good Job Bill!

I think that soon enough you are capable of an 11.9.

hahahaha, 20 min??? we sat there for at least an hour
That car was impresive. I stuck my head in your window and talked for a sec, didnt really introduce myself though, i was in the black Wrx that got the other trophy. Too bad my cars like 2 seconds slower
