The 12 second project (Sneak Peek)

Have not swapped turbos yet. I was waiting on the EM and exhaust. I will start wrenching very soon.
 
Awesome. Well good luck witht eh installs and that 12 second goal!!

I just bought an SAFC-II and should now be high 12's if not 13 flat. I'll take her to the track this winter and try to get some good launches. I'm pretty confidant that if I can get a 1.8 60ft or better I can pull off a 12. :)

Had JIC FLT-A2 on the P5. Too much for the street, perfect for the track.

I agree! When used to ride in Ahmad's P5 with the JIC's, we would hit a bump, and my nuts would almost hit my chin. I'm going with some Tokico Illuminas when I get enough money. In the meantime, I am using some used MP3 Struts off our official DFW Parts car..lol!

My friend has a WRX with a VF34 turbo, header and 3" exhaust, SAFC and AVCR and he runs 12.9's. That was with some 19" wheels too. Stock injectors, stock intercooler, just the fuel controller, exhaust and turbo. I believe he was running 15-16psi, but could be worng. I know he has problems running 19, so he keeps it backed down. Nice looking stuff, makes me wnat a factory turbo car too!

He should consider himself lucky. When I was running 20 PSI on a VF34, my UR600s were at 93% IDC...the STI pinks would have been maxed out, and the stock injectors wouldn't keep up at all. Only thing I can think of is a really lean mixture (I was at 11.5:1) or really high fuel pressure. Actually, I can't even see the stock pump pushing enough....I dunno.

As far as FMICs go, you could've done an APS if you wanted to keep a sleeper look. The TMIC can certainly hold you back. The red is awesome BTW.

Yeah, he can't run 19psi or he goes way lean, so they're keeping up at 15-16psi. He definatly has a stock pump and stock injectors.
