I think 150 is the safe practical limit for the majority of users. I usually spray 125 and am very confident at the bottom end holding together at this level, but have gone up to 150 on "special occasions" with pump gas an 4 degrees of timing pulled out. Some people have reported going as high as 200 on stock bottom ends, but this requires really good tuning and some race gas wouldnt hurt.

 

I would of had him.

That was my 100 shot and hot cam.

Here was the same set up with a 200 shot

I only did that once and pulled 6 degrees to do it. Although, it never made +200 to the tire. It only gained between 165-175. Come to think of it, my 150 shot was a little closer to 125.

Nice videos by the way, that was a cool race. Your car sounds good. Props to the STI that car sounded really cool too. You could play the turbo game too , tell em: 'Dude, I'll race your turbo import... let's go pound for pound on the boost.' LOL, I think on a built engine that would be over 1,000HP to the tire. I hear lots of import guys saying 'I made xxx power on low boost' Low boost being 20+ lbs.

Those STI/ Evo's are really cool, I have to admit. I would like to get my hands on one in a couple of years (let the prices go down in the used market). AWD, turbo, 6 speed... what's not to love?

 

Nice runs.....sounds like you launched really high in the rpms....and the 1 to 2 shift comes reallyyyyyy quick... LOL

 

yeah it did, I noticed the same thing. 4.10's?

and was that a 11.49? or did i the board wrong?

 

I launched pretty hard against the Audi. I think I dumped the clutch at 6,000 RPM. I also had 4.56 gears in it, so that's why the gear changes came quick. The board read 11.96 Vs. the Audi. It looks like 11.4, but I don't remember it going that quick on the 100 shot.
