Did you skip stage 1 or did I just forget that you did it? Either way, that thing will be a beast!

Snowy - if you'd be nice enough to PM me some info on pricing and your experience I'd love to know.

May eventually make my way down to Neetronics (I'm assuming that's where you're heading).

I spoke with my tuner who is now just down the street from me.... Stage 2 is go

I'm weak...

VMan...you have mail

come on Dock...a WRX will make you strong

I really should put the WRX on the next car short list. I'm sure it would make Manitoba winters much more fun.

Day one install

went with the Q300 eh? Good call.

Has some mighty fine reviews....NOW GIVE YOURS!!!!!!

Snowman · « **Reply #68 on:** May 04, 2011, 06:21:01 pm »

That will be day two...

What kind of power can an STi see? My buddy has a 2011, and when he gets his WRX back (broken trans) he's going to drop the STi off for tuning, and the tuner says 500 on-the-ground ponies are more than possible and with strong reliability.

I hope he lets me drive it when it's done!!!

300HP/300+TQ to the wheels fairly easy tuned and with the right parts.

I've seen stockers put down 240HP and about 260TQ or so.

Day 2

rrocket · « **Reply #72 on:** May 05, 2011, 09:30:58 pm »

Not too shabby. Needs a bigger turbo.

Must be a blast to drive. No comments?

Completely different car....lots of low end grunt and now....the lovely noise

. I will be spending some time with a glue gun on the weekend to secure cheap plastics in the hatch. I was testing on the north service road around 8:00 pm when it was quiet. Nobody on the QEW could keep up

launch control set to 4500 rpm and flat foot shifting to 5000

When that wall of torque hits you between 2500-3000rpm it must be lots of fun.

Vmango · « **Reply #75 on:** May 05, 2011, 09:48:54 pm »

Snowy...did you do a baseline?

johngenx · « **Reply #76 on:** May 05, 2011, 09:49:35 pm »

Decent!! That's only with the pipe? Can you launch at only 4500? I always figured the both-ends limited slips would grab too hard and a whack of rpm would be needed to gain momentum. Though (thinking aloud) that 3000rpm torque hammer will play a big role.

Stage II is more than just a pipe....

johngenx · « **Reply #78 on:** May 05, 2011, 10:25:44 pm »

I came late and sheepishly admit to not reading all the in-between stuff. That is Stage II? That 330 ft-lbs is kinda awesome. Must be a roll-on sleeper. Wait, sleeper? An STi? Oops.

"When that wall of torque hits you between 2500-3000rpm it must be lots of fun"

Yes, it is nice and twitchy with ESC off

"Snowy...did you do a baseline?"

No, had to work all day and for the first time was not in attendance for the tune to see results or ask.

Will probably go for intake as my tuner said he could get another 10-15 lbs more. Shell 91 is a must.
