a massive exhasut on a WRX is gona make it sound fully sick but will actully effect mid range torque. front mount intercooler increases you intake lenght and increases lag. im pretty sure it was a 1998 model.
|
Yes, it will effect mid-range torque. It will increase, same as any turbo car. Lag means nothing once on boost.

|
If anything the WRX could do with LESS grip on a launch. It has too much grip, requiring a massive clutch dump with uber revs to stop them from bogging down. Conventional arguments of squat would probably work in it's favour.
domasik wrote on Sat, 03 December 2005 11:15 | why would an older WRX be faster than a newer one? the newer ones are faster. my dad forrestor XT can beat any rex up to 2000 im pretty sure he said but after 2000 they start getting faster.

The MY99 WRX had 160kW. The MY00 had 165kW (?). The MY99 had a factory weight of 1290kg. The MY00 had a factory weight of a smidge under 1400kg. Of course the Forrester is faster to 2000rpm, it has a baby turbo and bigger engine.

|
A slight boost increase is one thing, a front mount and exhaust is a better thing. Unless you neglected to mention the S13 has an exhaust too, I still call bullshit.
That, or the WRX owner can't drive.
