so a stock STI traps 105 mph, and the current FASTEST SS trapped 105 this weekend. I'm thinking that with only an intake and 3.0 pulley, the SS should lose, although it will be a reasonably close race. Perhaps even close enough for a good driver in an SS to win, but it's the STI's race to lose.

It's all cool PatNy......what I should really say....boost on the wrx/sti really dont pull till about 4k..not like the srt, where its an instant boost. Driving in my friends wrx...there's not much power on the bottom end when going from a roll...thats what I meant to say, after doing a turbo upgrade on his....turbo lag on his really sucks(cuz of the size of his turbo)...but after 4k...hold on...that thing pulls like a bastard......should be an interesting race between him and my friends srt

Have a nice day!

LOL

You can say all you want...I remember when I bought my STi off of a dodge lot, the salesman got me to test drive an SRT-4...it had pull in third gear...and that was about it. The STi is on a whole different level, and I also like it when SRT-4 drivers rev at me, and I just roll down my rear POWER windows and laugh at them. But then again, they were designed to be two different cars.

SS with mods could hang with a stock STi but who knows...someone should get it on video hahaha lol But in the end the STi has the edge from a dig or roll.

WRX's and STI's start to wake up when a turbo-back exhaust is slapped in. especially for the WRX since it has 3 cats and a resonator!

You guys could even go to club wrx forums and find a stock one thats lives on longisland to race a black kid in a red cobalt but chances are they already know me or have heard of me, or have friends that have heard of me.
I bet you were racing a wrx not the sti those things are damn fast.

I mean comon I'm basically saying 1: im not stock with out listing my mods 2: the sti would be stock and 3: It would be from a 40 roll Which means everything is in my favor and none in the sti's but no one can believe or accept that. I did the same thing on srt-4 forums about me (modded) vs stock srt-4's and people got there panties in a bunch instead of reading what i wrote. ITs not a fair match up. Next time im gonna say me (modded) can beat a stock z06 from a 40 roll if the Z06 only has 3 tires 2 of which are on the front of the car and watch how many people call BS "Z06 for the win"

if your stock from a dig it'll be past you around 105-110 and walking. From a roll if its a 40 good night. you'd need a first gear roll to hang on longer. Now thats if your stock and the cobalt has any decent amount of mods.

I think it would be a good race. The STI stock only lays like 230ish stock to all the wheels. You took away his launching ability to rape your A$$, so it should end up a fair race. At 45 and in 2nd gear that is a slight lull, but real close to your powerband. Take it up to 50-55, and you'll scream in second gear. Catch third perfectly, and keep going. Noe go Get Er' Done.

Now thats what i like to hear. Down for what ever, you've earned my respect. But lets be serious digs are way more fun than rolls. Rolls are cute and all but theres a lot more enjoyment from going from a dig.
