Fatsest N/A 2.5 RS
Let's hear 'em...
I just ran a [email protected], sounds kinda slow, maybe. First time ever at the track though. And all I have is an intake, and a bare interior. I'm looking for people with mods, and stock. Even 0-60 times, whatever. Let's figure out what these things are capable of.

That's a good time....
Man, that's a good time. I ran a 15.6something @ 86 something-or-other mph last year in May. Temperatures were over 25 celcius so it was a hot day. All I've got is a PDM intake and a Stromung exhaust. Kept my interior though.
My friend who was also racing his MY00 RS sedan ran a 15.4something. Do a search for Kevin Thomas' 1/4 mile registry. You'll find lotz of info in there. LaterZ! Darren!! |

I went 16 flat @ 88.25 MPH on a 90 degree day....one of the guys here with the Ganzflow, K&N filter and APEX N1 axle back exahust went 15.56 yesterday on a 50 degree day.
Oh yeah my car was 100% bone stock at that time with just over 6200 VERY easy driven miles...turbo kit coming soon to an RS near you . With now almost 12k on the car it pulls MUCH harder and has had a nice breakin. jeremy |

Optimism
I have "computed" all of my 7 quarter mile runs and have come to the conclusion that, if I got the perfect run, with the perfect setup, my car is capable of 15.00 flat, possibly even(should I say...)14.9~~. I'll try and make this happen at the next Lapeer meet, so you guys don't think I'm talking outta my ars.
By the way, I believe I'm running somewhere around a 6 FLAT 0-60. And driving my brothers WRX only makes me drool. |

AndresRS01 had the fastest N/A that I knew of....14.4 and a 14.3, of course he now has parted out his car and I think even sold it. Andres |

I ran a 15.38@89mph back in June. I had (at the time) a rear Bosal/Subaru muffler section and a Rallispec intake, no spare, and maybe half a tank of gas. Now, with my mid pipe, maybe I could shave off a bit.

Trust me I know. A 15.0 is a great time if you can hit it.. BTW: how are you launching? what are you shifting at? tire pressure? what gas are you using? 1/4 tank or not? Ryan CarParts F/X Import Team |

i need that Bs flag...that's cool
yeah i am also interested in how you made you car weight under 2100 lbs. I can't even imagine how you could shed 700 lbs off an RS. i could see 100 lbs with bumper beams, another 15 with the hood, but where else?? jeremy |

On my gtech I got 15.2 with my friend in the passenger seat (160lbs) and a full tank of gas, and about the very end was a little up-hill.
mods: 205/50/16 toyo t1-s underdrive pulley apexi n1 canister w/ 2.25" cat-back exhaust ganzflow intake w/ amsoil filter my 0-60 on that run was 7.13sec (with him in the car) I launched her at 5k rpms clutch dump . ----- Now when I was alone in the car I pulled a 6.9 second 0-60. I havent gotten to the real track b/c everytime I show up they stop taking cars...I have driven 100miles 4 different times (one way) to race on the drag strip....and I have been told to go home each time. -justin |

nice dude.
Did you notice much of a hp gain with the cams? Say if you were going 80 in 5th gear, does it accelerate faster? later, -justin |

With my launch technique and lame stock clutch my car is only good for low 15s. I have a 6 puck clutchnet disc and heavy duty pressure plate, but since I don't really care about drag racing such a slow car I'm not installing it until the stock clutch is toast. My mods: DIY cold air intake / AMSOil panel filter Cobb Tuning street cams DIY mild head porting 2.25" catback, 2.25" Borla turbo muffler Only other mod I have planned is headers when I get fed up with the exhaust leaks from the stock setup or it becomes a performance problem. Brullen's new headers look promising but that price is hard to swallow... |

I have decided that my RS is fast enough, it should satisfy me for the next ~4 years until I can afford a ej20-single turbo swap.
I will be doing the swap with a friend (we have all the tools...why not ), so it should be TOO expensive. Its just more cost effecient to modify a turbo motor IMO. (dollar vs hp gain I mean). none the less, NA 2.5 RS's are FAST AS H3LL. |

tydon, my cams cost me around $450 to get installed. Blindeye, they do pull a little harder, but I only notice them around 4K and up. Personally, I think the $900 I have invested in them would have been better spent towards a downpayment on a WRX.

no argument there, and my cams cost me $300 plus about $60 in consumables (gaskets&whatnot) plus about 50 man-hours of labor split between 3 guys.
small gain. proven, but small. <--- I go fast with this |
