Just because others are doing it doesn't make it a good idea. There are plenty of inexperienced tuners on NASIOC. I wouldn't think headers would be a bad thing though since they just reduce your spool time. definately not a bad thing for an OTS map.

Re: Recommendations on TBE for 2011 WRX
WRONG!!!!!! Germaine does do AP!!!! He just keeps qiuet about it.
And OTS maps are a really bad idea. I have seen many a blown motor by them. They are never safe.

Re: Recommendations on TBE for 2011 WRX
I would reccommend Turboxs. There products and tuning are the best! The SUXASS gets all its products and tuning from there. If you have ever seen the SUX you would agree their stuff is great. The SUX gets abused constantly at auto-x and works extremely well. I have been in the Subaru tuning communit...

Re: 2010 Outback 6MT
From here I thought it was a brz. There is way more than just the suspension that is different between the 2. Subaru builds them all anyway. You just get all the cheap stuff on the frs.

Re: Bought a '93 Corolla as a Bad-Weather Vehicle...
My RS Impreza has 290k on it! It is getting autocrossed this weekend. I expect it to go another 200k unless rust takes over or a deer ends it.

Re: WRX Suspension Upgrade. What to do?
You have a subaru, the season is just beginning! Get some winter tires (your wrx comes with summer only tires) and find some empty snow covered lots. You would be suprised how well this can help you learn car control. If you are willing to travel there are some autocross events in the snow near Pitt...

Re: WRX Suspension Upgrade. What to do?
I wouldn't worry over mods yet. Learn to drive first. The car is fine stock, even the tires it comes with are great! Myself and a few friends run a car just like yours in stock class. It is a very formidable car. Granted we went to the limit of stock class. But if you have to sway bars and shocks ar...

Re: CDC Halloween Autocross SATurday October 29th and TNT SU
I drove around in it in my subaru on summer tires and had no issues. It was even difficult to do donuts. The wet sloppy snow allows much grip.

Doubt we will have any accumulation during the autocross. It will likely accumulate late in the afternoon after we are already done.

If you can wait until december we could do all 3. I am hopeful that SPK will be open the first weekend in december for my birthday. We could do a cruise, drive and dine.

Re: Bowie on Saturday August 28th
Take the car out and do a couple ABS stops. This will purge any air from the hydraulic unit and prove if they have been bled enough. If the pedal gets soft again then there was air trapped in the unit and the brakes must be bled again.
