dude just race him you wont know if you just try right? if you lose then oh well dump more money into your sooby and then kick his a$$

 

probably not going to win but its worth a shot.

 

I see no reason why you cannot win on a autox course, really you should stomp him if you know how to handle your car.

In a drag with your mods... can you do any quick weight saving mods? I would say you guys should be close since you are going to launch like a mad man or least should be able to and he isnt going to get off the line like you. Just dont miss shift and you guys should be close well he still might get you but not by much.

Anybody have suggestions on cheap mods that could increase his 1/4 miles time?
Short shifter
Get a splitter for your hood scoop(might help a bit)
Remove spare tire
Try and lighten your car as much as possible
Dont have the defrost on :P

 

i have a short shifter in my car already.lol. I love the way you guys are all putting your opinion about this topic. thanks.lol

p.s.-what would happen if i leave my defroster on?

 

Defroster and AC on = fatty turbo lag, at least from what I've experienced. If you wanna save weight, pluck out your shotgun and rear seats too Empty out the trunk and the glove, and fast for the 3 days before the race (okay, maybe that's a little too extreme ) Come to think of it, racing your "friend" would make for an interesting experience. Just don't put money on it

 

how funny would it be if he borrows someones heavily modded wrx that is extremely similar looking to his? hehe and spanks his friends vette...i would love to see the look on whatshisnames face!

 

that would be really funny.lol. anyone want to lend an 11second car so i can just totally kill him.LOL.

 

if you are going to install your uppipe, u should d/c the battery so your ecu resets. then from that point on, drive your car like you stole it. then bring it to the track, and i think u have a fair chance to eat him alive.

 

yea i def should. but would i lose my map on my unichip if i do so? Im pretty sure i wouldnt.

p.s.-i still have to put in my mbc in...im such a mbc noob. i just cant seem to adjust the damn thing.

 

i dont think u will lose the map, i just think it put it back to "default", but then i haven't really looked into engine management myself so i wouldn't know. but common sense tells me u shouldn't because if for instance your battery in the car dies, u lose all memory i.e. your radio presets and clock but i believe your unichip is a diff case.

 

oh yea for your mbc, i think most people set it to 16.5 psi safely

 

so will i lose the map? i need to know because i am going tommorow to get the installation? anyone???
