My 02 has an APS 3" turboback, APS up-pipe, STI intercooler and a professional ECUtek tune topping at 16.3psi, and I am at 216whp/230 tq. Your header, inlet pipe and fuel management system are totally irrelevant and wasted here; you are still on the stock injectors, fuel pump and turbo, which come first in the power chain before the other mods kick in. The intercooler is also too large for that turbo, you are probably seeing a pressure drop of 1 to 2 psi across the core. I'm not saying these things to rain on your parade, I want you to protect the investment you have here -- take it to a shop and get a professional tuner's opinion and some real dyno time, at least before you take it to a track.

These wrx Run A 14.4 1/4 Mile Stock. The Srt-4's Run A 13.9-14 Flat At The 1/4 And The 1 I Ran Had A Stage 2 Turbo So It Was Alot Faster. I Know What U Trying 2 Say But Theres Just No Way Im Still Running A 14. Me And This Guy In The Srt Ran From A Dead Stop All The Way 2 120mph And I Stayed Ahead The Whole Time By 3-4 Cars And He Even Took Off Before Me. I Also Felt A Real Difference When I Put On My Header, inlet pipe And Fuel Management System, It Runs Alot Faster And Stronger because it used 2 run lean and now it doesnt and theres better airflow even tho i no longer get the boxer engine sound.
Thanks 4 Responding. I'll Let You Know If I Find Out Anything Else If I Get It Dynoed Or Go 2 The Track.
