Thread: Reliable "STI Killer" setups?

are you rebuilding a motor ? or are you just freshining up the bearings on the motor thats in your car ?

stratton.

I have a de+t with the s13 turbo mated to it...but it's been sittin for a year plus...so ima just do everything to that highport...then swap it in my dd

I had a chance to pick up a 2560r for 260..but ima just wait for a disco

shoulda grabbed it

maybe to flip it ^. but whos gonna pay more then 300 or so for a t25 even if it is brand new.

2560r is the old gt28r or s15 turbo if I'm not mistaken. Good for 300whp and spool very quick. Now why go and spend so much more money for a potato?

damn skippy. its not quite about pure speed guys. the sti was never about that. its the overall package........right on down to the flat engine with lower center of gravity, locking center diff, invterted struts, bullit proof 6 speed. drive a correctly modded sti and tell me what youd rather tack to the track? ROAD TRACK, not a damn drag strip. a good friend of mine is a subaru teacher for subaru of america.....he is the youngest teacher ever in the history of subaru....24yo. the guy is brilliant no lie. he has an 07 silver sti limited with black interior and a gt30 setup with fully built motor. thing is a BLAST. he took a JDM subaru engineer for a ride and the guy gave him a hand shake lol.

if you think the true sti tuners are going to be let down because they were beat on a straight road.....think again, meet them in the twisties.

the top mount is good for more than 300whp, sti's do not need an upgraded up pipe and the stock intake is good to 350whp. downpipe and mid pipe are all you need for the stg2 tune.

i swear im not a trader, just explaining what i have learned from the other side lol.

Meh, if were going to the road coarse Ill just pull out the Z06! Gotta keep Options in the garage

while a Z06 is nice to look at........ill take the sti
