FlexdXJ Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Seems like an awful lot of engine and turbo to only make 313/300. Are you still breaking it in? This, Forged internals should be able to handle a LOT more than that. Good looking wagon though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepuma Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Nice looking Outback. I really love that color. But you have to want to turn the wick up on that thing I agree ^ passing 330/380 on less than that- There's A LOT of room between you and I. However, like you, I also lost my first motor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brob1986 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 A track tune is alot different than a street tune. I think your smart to stick with the numbers your at now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OppositeLock Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Wow, great video, really conveys the speed. Nice driving as well. What is the track day weight of the car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldskoolbiker Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 Yes I know my engine could do more, but as brob1986 pointed out, a track tune is different than a street tune. I specifically told IAG I would be tracking the car and wanted the engine and tune to be able to hold up. @OppositeLock, I don't know what the weight of the car is. I took out all the extra stuff out of the car, like spare tire, floor mats, rear head rests etc. Outbacks are supposed to be couple hundred pounds heavier than WRX's.

subawang Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Any mods to enhance cooling? What water and oil temps do you see? My tuned stage 2 setup doesn't allow more than 5 or so all-out laps (no traffic) before I need to take it easy due to climbing temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My tuned stage 2 setup doesn't allow more than 5 or so all-out laps (no traffic) before I need to take it easy due to climbing temps. I'm all stock as far as oil and water. I haven't had any issue, my temps don't go up any higher than normal street use. Oil temp is usually around 100C (the OEM STI gauges are in metric) and water temp gauge is right in the middle. I have saw some guys install oil coolers and larger radiators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Yes I know my engine could do more, but as brob1986 pointed out, a track tune is different than a street tune. I specifically told IAG I would be tracking the car and wanted the engine and tune to be able to hold up. I have a similar build with a similar hp/tq result. For the same reason...at the track, it doesnt matter if you can hit a number once, it matters whether you can hit the same number minute after minute, session after session, track day after track day. I took almost 70 tq off the first dyno run to what I actually showed up at the track with. Still happy with that choice.
