04 STi Street/Race car :)
Its been a few weeks since my last post on the car....
We toke the old Sti out to the trac and it ran a 11.2@128+mph
The conditions were far from ideal, having various problems on each of the 1/4 mile passes, like intercooler hoses blowing off, boost leaks etc etc...On the last pass where we got the car to hook up it broke a CV axle.
Due to Mikes' tuning the car/powertrain ran great
I'm at a turning point...and have decided to change my setup once again....turning this car more into one bad *** STREET car vrs a trailer queen/racer.
As the car gets buttoned up i'll keep you guys updated, till then my lips are sealed.

Time to bump the thread, its been awhile.
Looks like i should be get car back in a few days from the shop to perform alittle break-in driving...as the last set of mods are just about done.
We did alot of work to the car over the summer...it will be interesting to see what new HP numbers and 1/4mile times we're able to pull outta her while still keeping the car streetable.

I picked up the car last night..Runs like a champ.
Great work and good new parts installed by none other then Mike/Tommy/Murt and gang.
Thanks guys.
I hope to put some miles on the car within the next few weeks and have the fresh motor/turbo setup tuned in.
Stay tuned
