2 Redlines (Turbo and TVS), 400whp WRX, Blown GTO, and MS3 (video)

Had some fun this past week when it was nice out and got to test out the new setup a little bit on low boost. The first run in the video is from right before winter, but it was a good run and shows how the GTO runs. He will be doing full exhaust and a tune soon, and we just got the WRX back together and driving yesterday (good friend of mine) with the built motor and 5858 (old motor with 160k miles wouldn't die at 400whp so we just yanked it out )

When I raced the goat he was having issues getting into 3rd, so after 5 failed attempts he asked for a 60 roll until he could get his new clutch figured out. Has no issue with 1-2 and 3-4 shifts supposedly. I was on 20 psi for the run.

The 3rd run is my friend with my old TVS against another friend's Speed 3. The redline owner is still trying to figure out traction from 40, so he asked for a 60 roll for now, which is awesome in 2nd with the TVS. I tuned all the cars in the video except the GTO lol. Enjoy

Thanks! Its kina of funny. He has my old header and DP, and the same exhaust as me, but it sounds way different than my car when it was SC. I think the ported head made the exhaust sound way different on mine compared to his stock one, because mine wasn't near that loud or raspy!

I agree....i think the exhaust sounds terrible on TVS Ion. What type of muffler is in it?

Its a Hahn catback, and vibrant header mated to a ZZP 3" DP that I put nice Kooks stainless resonator in. SO it has 2 resonators and one muffler total. It was nowhere near that loud on my car. I know that my ported head changed the exhaust note because in one of my old videos my car sounded kind of like that, but it was much more refined when I had the head ported and then when I added the resonator. His catback could be getting worn too, but mine is quite a bit older.

GTO got half car or so on the WRX from 40-135, my turbo redline freight trained the GTO from 60 to 140, and the TVS redline pulled 3-4 on the MS3 from 60-120.
