View Full Version : AMR Build: Performance Chemicals, LLC. 2006 Subaru STi - 800+whp - MONSTER BUILD!
Year: 2006
Vehicle: Subaru
Model: STi
Notes:
This vehicle belongs to Michael R. Currier president of Performance Chemicals, LLC. Like most of our corporate builds, the company's 2006 Subaru STi has only one goal and that is to RACE.
We at AMR have put together this journal/step-by-step build to show the NASIOC members/public what it takes to make true power and for those who are drag racers, what is needed to lay down that low sec E.T. and high MPH in a quarter mile. Unlike some of our corporate company builds who like to keep things hush hush. Performance Chemicals, LLC. have given us the okay to put together this write up.

NorCalSubie07 04-30-2008, 05:22 PM good luck on build, can't wait to see results.
battousai 04-30-2008, 05:29 PM I love step-by-step builds that are constantly updated. Can't wait to see what you guys have planned :D.
UM-WRXer 05-02-2008, 03:32 PM nice, looking forward to seeing the details behind the build....
simon021 05-02-2008, 05:48 PM now THAT is a dyno fan! Holy crap!
UM-WRXer 05-03-2008, 12:48 PM ^^ they also have two other high speed fans on the ground that you cannot see. Big one in the middle, two smaller on the sides.
Update:
The engine is out of the vehicle!
http://www.automasterofwestchester.com/aux/Oldengine.jpg
The engine is currently getting broken down. We are cleaning up the entire engine bay to make some room for the build. As you can see from the picture, neither the turbo kit nor motor will suite the objective.

Mac323 05-13-2008, 09:03 PM How was the car running on the magnus intake mani? I've heard some good/bad things about their manifold. Will the new build retain the same manifold or are you guys going with something different?
Any chance you guys could post a mod list of what we shoudl expect with this build or will that be posted step by step as the build goes on?
Thanks,
-Greg

Greg,
The magnus manifold is a good piece but to make the type of power this company wants the manifold will not do. We have certain style manifolds that we have tested over the years that will suite this project perfectly. The step by step build will include pics, videos and text (which will include a mod list).

wrxhard 10-16-2008, 03:33 PM It appears the project is coming along swimmingly...:rolleyes:
Sorry for the delay on this project. I will post up some new pictures. Project was put on hold due to certain parts taking some time to get here.
We apologize for the delay.
-Rob
Guys,
We started working on this bad boy. We ripped down the motor and the vehicle to the bare minimum. And threw in some extras. The pictures explain it all.

MonkeyKarma 02-15-2009, 10:10 AM I love the fleck look on the Intake manifold what do you call that finish?
kalescustom 02-26-2009, 12:52 PM what is that AC compressor doing on there?
vexixx 03-09-2009, 07:12 PM Is the turbo gonna be sitting outside of the hood?
girodisc 03-09-2009, 07:25 PM No it looks like it sits inside of the hood scoop. Got place to put it to keep it cool. but I would put some heat transfer tape on the bottom of it so you don't burn up the paint.
sweet build
Johann @ girodisc
wisewhiterabbit 03-17-2009, 04:17 PM i used to do powder coating the finish is called nickle vein or silver vein. should have went with the copper vein. its not my car but i like black and gold, black and silver is too much of a contrast :popcorn:

BTW, this would fit the scoop nicely:

You have a long way to go Sean. Right now all I see is a block and a list of modifications that you want to do. Not to mention you stated will not be ready until next year. That is a long time from now :lol:.

Is there a list with mods actually on it? I am working on my build for my legacy gt wagon right now. And I could use some ideas. I like the idea of the turbo right up top.
LTBlackBird 09-02-2009, 01:36 AM man..that will be definitely be a hand full
Jaylyons1 09-10-2009, 03:53 AM Has it been tracked yet?

fearmywrx 09-18-2009, 10:31 PM yea plus one for update.
bluemicamatt 09-19-2009, 07:22 PM there is another post on this...
i think the guy is calling it quits. $160K into the car!!
Boxer112 10-03-2009, 06:36 PM 160k?? thats crazy..
Darcros 10-04-2009, 03:26 PM what a waste of money. could of had a bad ass exotic
Track Video:
YouTube - 2006 Subaru STi - 10.54 @ 143mph - Bad Bog - 31psi
Thoughts:
For the public, this is not our vehicle. This is our customers. Another vehicle traps over 140mph+.
The video pretty much explains the day
Exedy Twin disk lasted 1 pass. First pass launch control set at 4800rpm for testing. Bogged bad. Second pass raised the launch control to 5800rpm. Ate the clutch! Same problem our 2008 Subaru STi had. Just shows at 600whp on our dyno, 31psi, exedy twin disk = no good!
Boost was 31psi, car made 630whp at that boost level, which is in the video, ran 143mph. So the 143mph shows the 630whp. The car is tuned for 40psi.
We are putting in a triple disk in the car!

He did not spent that much money. :lol:
Unfortunately, Mike has been to a variety of other shops before us in which he ran into bad luck and spent a lot of money before meeting us on setups that he was not happy with.

Still not impressed. I went 9.90 with a 4g63 35r on 31psi 601hp. Maybe throw some drag radials on it and get someone that knows how to drive.

Thats a 4G63. :lol:
I will take trapping 143mph with a 10.54 on a bad day with a bog with a Subaru any day of the week. But to each-his-own.
Drivers not the problem. The car will go 9s next time out.

Darcros 10-12-2009, 03:16 PM All turbo? your making alot of power seems you should not be bogging. leaving on a 2step? also becareful with the exedy twin disk they are very very harsh on gears
All turbo? your making alot of power seems you should not be bogging. leaving on a 2step? also becareful with the exedy twin disk they are very very harsh on gears
2 Step was set at 4800rpm. Due to street tires we did not know how much bite it would have. I state all this information in the video.
As far as the clutch, at this power level, exedy twin disc's do not hold up.
We only used it due to the customer already having the clutch.
