Not sure exactly what the roush stage 2 runs...but i bet it'll be a good race beings that the stage 3's run 13.1's stock...so the stage 2's will probably be in your range....regardless on the results from the race...have him run next to a STI and watch his face turn red .

No man, unfortunately not yet. The next couple weeks are gonna be crazy. I have graduation today, I'm getting married next week, and I have my Air Force commissioning ceremony the week after that.
lol, so yeah, I've been a little busy, but I will definitely run with him at least once before I come to Texas at the end of June. We almost raced a couple weeks ago, but things got pushed back.
BTW, I'll be sure to let you know when I'm down in the San Antonio area.

So thats about $4000. The wrx has more power capability, well unless you buy a $5600 supercharger for the mach 1, but the wrx takes more money to get it as fast.
With all the stuff you listed a WRX could run consistant mid-high 12s.

I have HKS uppipe, HKS downpipe, and HKS Carbon Ti exhaust. Lets just say I beat mustang GT's pretty easily, the only problem I have is with my upipe, I've lost both bolts so far due to my friends who helped me not properlly tightening them lol so after tonight I should be running with no problems.

I know what you mean, only problem is money, I need my money to go to tires and brakes since autocrossing is wearing them down fairly quickly. So did you race this sunday?
