My STi vs. buddy's 02 wrx, details inside

overdose · 02-28-2006, 10:21 AM

Mine: 2004 STi, K&N typhoon intake, megan racing TBE catless protuned by ed @ edtuning.com

His: 2002 WRX, helix tbe, JDM 6spd, uppipe, tuned by ed @ eqtuning.com

He was by himself (190lbs), I was riding shotgun in my car (210lbs) driver was my buddy (230lbs) and bogged the launch and didn't shift very efficiently, but it didn't matter too much... in the second run of the video we just let him go and stayed in 5th around 2200rpm then punched it

-moral of story: his car can walk a stock sti from a dig or a roll, but when you stg2+protune a sti... things get rediculous

who? john can drive very well (wrx), my buddy's never driven a STi before and i was drunk/never drive like that on the street anyway

and i don't want to have the stg2 vs. stock sti debate, i had a wrx before this car from every mod level from stock to vf30/fmic before i sold it and at stg2 power levels, i could take stock sti's as well (if you ignore how much better of a car a sti is, handling, features and robust driveline)

i don't know what you mean, i was filming from my car (the sti) and his lack of sti experience didn't play any roles here, the wrx still got hurt pretty damn badly

Woah was there a debate on if a stg 2 wrx can keep up with a stock sti.

If there was, the yes the stg 2 wrx easily keeps up with stock sti's. I know from experience in my cobb stage 2 wrx. I raced many stock sti's from a roll and none pulled more then 1/2 a car.

Ahh, the good 'ol "street racing while crunk" video. Street racing kills, gives all of us a bad rep, and is stupid. I award you no points. If you wanna compare cars, do it on the track.
