I ran my car last night and the best i got was as follows...

R/T ... .535
60' ... 1.970
330' ... 5.758
1/8 ... 8.973
MPH ... 76.90
1000'... 11.725
1/4 ... 14.141
MPH ... 92.74

I have an 03 wrx. Mods are...Cobb accessport w/stg2 map, gutted up/down pipe, K&N filter, silencer delete. These numbers seem pretty bad. I also noticed my boost would go down to like 12.5-13 in 3rd and 4th at 4500 and above. Also my Egt's hit 1620 at one point in time. Whats the deal. BTW, I was shifting at 6800-7100 every time.

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!

try shifting around 5500 rpms. Each shift should you drop you back down into your powerband. Shifting at 6800 and up drops you out of your powerband. If this dosen't make sence then trust me, some one else will clear it up. Sweet 60ft and RT by the way. High rpm launch much.

This was the first time I ever raced it or launched it. I think i reved it to around 5500 and then slipped it. (first time at the track, third run)

something is wrong if you are trapping 92.xx at stage 2.

your launch is so-so. your 1/8 mile ET and MPH are OK and your 1/4 ET is OK. Only your MPH unusually low. You should be able to reach 97/98 MPH on the Cobb Stage II.

I wouldn't bother shifting into 4th gear. Go through the timing lights in 3rd. It will be quicker and faster trap speed as well. At 98 MPH you'll be just shy of the Cobb Stage II rev limit.

Yeah I trapped 94 on AP stage 1. But, 60' sucks so my times aren't that good!

I have the same problem and nearly the same times but my mph is usually 95-96. I blame mine on my lightweight flywheel.
