Default Runs Against a Modded WRX

Not really sure what it had done to it other than a huge *** intercooler that I was able to see. Cool guy.

Bottle pressure was down in the low 700's because I had already made a few runs in Mexico and there wasn't much N2O left. 1st run I was trying to slow down to get even with the guy and I didn't hear him honking so I took off later. Second race we started off at the same time.

Looks like my car will be down for a little while as the converter is f@cked and causing my trans to heat up big time. Car stopped shifting into D on the way home.

his shifting isn't that good really. is consistent and precise but not real fast.

that's a quick wrx, and your T/A rolls out pretty hard as well. good runs.

I got a chance to talk to the WRX owner a few days later and he said it had a few boltons, full exhaust ,upgraded turbo and was pushing 26lbs of boost on race gas.
