Car Info: 2004 STi.....stock turbo/intercooler/cat-back, aftermarket intake/downpipe/piggyback
Its a better idea to start racing it after the first oil change! You'll cause more wear and tear otherwise .... Stock times for a good runnin STi should be between 13.3 - 13.4 @ 99-100.6 mph here in hawaii.

I'd say 750 isn't enough to be racing the engine. Finish your break period to 1500 at least, change to synthetic then race it. I did a dyno oil change at 1k, then synthetic at 2k before I even took it past 5k rpm.

my best pure stock time for my sti was 13.6. thats not bad and is around what it should be when not lunching at 7 g's. but low 14's are good man. just gotta work on the launch. reaction time doesnt effect the 1/4 time. nah mean? keep it up.
