Well - I'm stuck driving a slow NON turbo Subaru until everything shows up.

Took my car to the 'Garage of Doom' AKA my friends parents house who are gone for the summer where I will be drinking *cough* I mean installing everything, its' up in pieces and my intake and header are sold and gone so it's layin on the jackstands inoperable.

*sniff - poor tC all alone in that garage.

Are still going to run autocross with the turbo?

coppermine18

Yessir

Now you will find out how much fun you can have autocrossing with lack of grip and a turbo

I really enjoy it as it fit's my driving style as I an not a smooth driver.

In the places you can get hooked up you will get a real kick out of the acceleration though, literally!

Damn, all this talk about boost again, I think I will head ou to the shop and work on the manifold today

Just a suggestion, but you should look into water/meth injection to help keep temps down. Running it that hard will create a lot of heat and drasticly shorten the life of your motor.

S/C might have been a better option for autox, but I can't say I blame you for wanting to go turbo, more bang for the buck and a blast to drive.

Anyhow congrats and good luck.

I ran a D2 Auquamist setup on my SM class turbo Matrix in 2003, it really does help alot!

It was rather costly so it is nice to see others making kits now, I would very much want one that is metered according to boost level and shuts off completely when the trottle plate is closed;)

GReddy support tool and pressure sensor/harness
Autometer Phantom Black/White Gauges to match the Car
3 Gauge Pillar
NGK Wideband

*passes out. Since it is all apart, I might as well ;)

hahaha, it's not that slow, it's an legacy outback wagon i think (i was down there the other day and bought his intake/header).

coppermine18

Yeah non turbo AWD outback wagon lol 17.7 factory 1/4 mile ... feels slower. lol

mandangalo

dude, you think that's slow? my friend from work who has a 2.5rs also has an impreza l sedan....13 seconds to 60, 20 seconds 1/4 mile...simply put, it's ridiculous.

coppermine18

Thats just retarded that a car can't get out of it's own way - I would call that unsafe, how do you power out of a situation when it is called for haha

That's a road hazard.

BlkSandPrlTurbotC

ahhhhh

i remember those days of building....

except, i didnt have a garage or shade to work in

good luck on the build, yet another happy dezod customer

coppermine18

I'm glad because I've built alot of turbo'd cars - never my own! IT is MY turn ;) I've worked hard for it. I've done alot of kits - and I'm impresses with Dezod I'm glad to join their family.

Thank You.
