Battle of the Imports is this Sunday, and then Street Legal drags is on August 11th. I'll go too and if you want me to try my hand at running your car, I'd be more than happy to give it a whirl (first)(laugh)

BTW, I just did a quick search and found a stock MS3 that ran 15.7@88.7mph at LACR. I think that gives everyone a good idea how slow that track is, and a good frame of reference to my times/traps there relative to my dyno results. Here's the post from the guy who ran the 15.7: i went to LACR...

Stock Evo's typically run low 14's at LACR, with well driven ones in the same range as my car. I've seen poorly driven ones on particularly bad days run 15's. BTW, a stock Evo is only 5 whp behind my car on the same dyno and weigh a little less. So I guess that just goes to show that the ole...

AWD helps with the launch and thus the E.T., but the added drivetrain loss ends up hurting the trap speed. Trap speed is almost entirely dependent on the amount of power your car is making, unless you grossly mess up driving.

You must have missed the part about my 300-350lb heavier car trapping the same speed as yours. This was on a real drag strip, not a digital one. Los Angeles County Raceway in Palmdale, CA. 2750' altitude, 100* temps, nice 20 mph headwind and it all adds up to one of the slowest tracks in the...

Hey Bryan (it is Bryan right?(scratch), of course I remember you. How have you been. Still got the 6i huh. Glad to see you around.

Riiiiiight (uhm)(braindead. So your 3150 lbs car, with 222whp from a supposedly low reading dyno trapped 100 mph. My Legacy GT, which weighs 3450 lbs trapped at exactly the same speed at LACR which is a VERY slow track (typically 5000ft DA, and it runs uphill at the end). At that time it made...

We did not make any changes to ZooZoom's car. You could in theory bypass the factory boost control system with either an electronic or manual boost controller, but I have no idea if that is safe on an MS3. If the ECU will not add sufficient fuel to compensate for the increases airflow, then you...

8500 rpm redline on the fully built motor FTW! I just ran the numbers through a calculator and I theoretically have enough gear as is to run 210 mph(hitit) Of course that's not realistic, but the 175 mph a little over 7000 rpm doesn't seem that unreasonable to me... not that there is any kind of...

No problem Kev, glad to help. You would indeed give any stock Evo or STi a very good run, but you know you'll just be staring at my ever shrinking taillights when I get my motor back in the car and get it fully tuned out (nana)(rofl2)

That is really cheap. The going rate in the SoCal area is $80-$90 for 3 pulls with no tuning. Our group dyno day rate is $60. BTW, as requested, here are a couple of graphs of ZooZoom's cars. I picked the runs 2 and 3. 1 and 2 were about the same, but I forgot to put in the wideband on run 1...

I'll drag ZooZoom's butt out to the track so I can see what his car will do! (laugh) If he doesn't want to run it himself, he's more than welcome to toss me the keys and I'll do it for him!:)

I would fully expect ZooZoom's car to trap in the 103+ range with the numbers that he put down, since my personal car is an 05 Subaru Legacy GT that made 255whp/288wtq on the same dyno and I trapped at 100mph. This was at LACR which is one of the slowest tracks in the nation, and my car weighs...

Hi guys, this is Paul L. from Yimi Sport Tuning. I dynoed ZooZoom's car as well as a bunch of others this past Saturday. We usually deal with Subaru's and Evo's, but since I'm actually a former Mazda6 owner, so I figured I check in here. Anyways, ZooZoom's car was certainly very impressive. I...
