a stock STi with a good driver usually will hit low 13s, but there was a guy on clubwrx.net that hit 12.9 stock.

damn, your clutch is gone already? do you smell your clutch when you launch? if so, then your not launching properly man, thats why the clutch is wearing out so quickly. whenever a get a good launch off, there is normally very little clutch smell. probably done a good 30-40 launches and my clutch is fine. hopefully everything works out for you though.

Heres the guy that hit 12.9 stock. he also gives a quick tutorial of exactly what he did to achieve that: http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/showth...=launching+sti

its the fourth post down. props to YBNormal07.
