So I'm out cruisin' and I had to pull-over, to manually adjust my MBC. As I'm waiting to pull out, I see a black STI. No other cars.



I knew it was on.



So I stay behind, but slowly catch up. Next light turns red.



I get him to put his window down. Looked like he had another passenger or two.



He commented saying "Nice car.", I replied with "I'm only running 8psi." Obviously figuring that we were going to race..



I considered going from the line, and I dunno why I didn't.



He did a semi-launch and went..and was 3 cars ahead. At that point, I'm like fk' this, lets go.



So I go WOT in 1st gear, while being 2-3 cars back. He noticed quickly and punches it too.



By 2nd gear I'm right next to him.



By the end of 2nd gear and mid 3rd gear (roughly 100mph) I'm about 3+ cars ahead. Feelin' good.



No traffic, weather was nice and cool. Car was running well, but still only at like 8psi...



- Later on I raced a buddy in an RSX from a 2nd gear roll. 3 honks later, we go. I had an easy 3+ cars on him by 6,500RPM in 2nd gear. Just for sh*t's and giggles. :P



Besides some overboosting problems I experienced later, as I had to continually adjust my MBC, she has been running great at about 9-10psi now. Seems like the engine temp has something to do with the boosting, so I'm not going to turn it up at all, I'm not stupid.



Mods are simple:

intakes

Greddy down-pipe

N1 catback

Poor Man's Non-sequential

Manual-Boost Controller @ 8-10psi

Pettit AST in the mail too.

 

Nice kills. An STi is definately a worthly opponet. Any mods?

 

Nice Kill..

 

Hmm...no way to know if the STI was stock. I'm sure it was, though.

 

heres a pic of a good friends sti...

this was about the same distance placed on him by cym at end of third gear at VIR..

 

should come race my friends STI, its a nice surprise package, sounds innocent tho, as if it only has an exhaust job.
