Went up to Bandimere in Denver CO for a once a year special track day.

Very nice track, but it's at 5800ft altitude!!! which is a 1000ft higher than where I normally run. Also well over 100 mile drive... and the track temp was 97 degrees :shock:

Even against these odd's, the little Wagon prevailed!

Ran a best of a 12.6 @ 113 mph!!! ... 2.0 sixty foot.. I had my LC set to only build about 5 psi trying to prolong my 5 speed until I can dump the 07 STi box in. I came very close to upping it a bit to get sub 2.0 sixty's but held out. Car pulls very hard on the top end, hence the 113 trap!

Here is a video I just finished slapping together.. has some various footage mixed in along with my 12.6 run. Enjoy... thanks for taking the time to watch!

Cool vid General :)

Are you getting enough fuel through the injectors with running E85 and having to add 30% more fuel in?

ps - nice dog 8)

Thanks guys..

You know, I'm pretty much out of injector now... at 22ish relative to sea level boost my IDC's are in the 90's ... right now I've got it back down to about 21 relative.. and around 11.2 - 11.3 AFR's on the top end.... Basically, I would need larger injectors to go further, and my MAF is about maxed out.. but more seriously, I'd probably need a somewhat built motor to keep going too :| lol......

That is really nice.

You really should take that rotated uppipe adapter off your car and build a jig from it. It's an awesome concept and now with proven results, it would be a raging success.

Wow that's a fantastic time for that drag strip! Youtube is banned at work so I'll catch the vid at home. I'm heading down to Bandimere after I'm done with my E85 tune in a month or so... anxious to see what it will do for my current best of 14.0@99mph.

Keep us updated John... I'm curious to see how much it drops you down...

Hmmm... you really make me want to build another one of these to see what happens!
So tempting.... but I'm trying to convince myself I don't want to take it off again.... lol

Then again, I have to pull the turbo to replace the seal on the compressor side........

If you ever take it off, make a jig. You can always think about making more for sale later.

The downpipe is probably fairly easy to fabricate but you might want to make a jig for that too.
