some wrx hp numbers o/t
 

the wrx dynoed in at 320 hp @ the flywheel @ 16 psi "low boost "and pump gas

we are hoping to push over 400 hp at full boost 24 psi on c16 with the FMIC 850cc injectors and a cluch that can hold

i can see up wards of 500 hp with some good tuning and some internal engine work done,i.e version 7 heads and reinforced pistons and rods

7,000 rpm is just not enough rpm on these cars..

any svxers in the fl area is more then welcome to take it out for a spin =>

Sounds good. Have you seen any numbers on the capabilities of the EJ20 vs the EJ25 in the STi? I would think the STi should be able to get into the 400's fairly easy since it's at 300 stock. You still using your originaly motor? I have seen ads for JDM EJ20's that were used in the older STi's and RA's that were 276hp+. Good luck!!!!

yes pa the older sti version motors are the best to get even the 2.0 sti verses the US 2.5 liter is better.

its varly easy to get 350 hp out of sti, but they are limited to what the stock turbo puts out,

there are many things that actually hender really high hp sti's the drive by wire is one,, doesnt do much but cause more head aches, also the cams wich are electronicaly controled, not sure what the call them,, same as the vtec concept they also cause issues.. also being a whole new engine 2.5 liters parts are hard to come bye in the after market world

i think versions 7 and 8 are the best year to get they shimless buckets. and capable of reving to 8,500 rpms wich im planing on using those heads,,

also the standard wrx internals are prety weak they use steal rods not forged also no stainless teeel valves. and feruim or whatever its called ,,valves

basicaly like always the US gets screwed on the good stuff.

Awesome dyno numbers Solar! With a new clutch you should be running mid 12 in your current state of tune.

Was the engine dynoed on an engine dyno, or is the 'flywheel HP'a guesstament from wheel HP.?

Harvey.;)

u loose around 18-20% going to the wheels around 8 % for FWD and 12 % to RWD cars thes are all estimates, each car varies,

Thanks, what was the HP and torque at the wheels,and at what rpms was it. Inquiring minds and all that. :D got to add it to the info bank.

Harvey.;)

Ya i was gonna say, i have a friend wit ha pe1820 and put down 326 AWHP, thats completely built.
So you put down in the 250 range? sweet!
