Is that crank HP?
Sounds like you will be in STM with those mods.

Re: What class for this monster....
Person I bought the car from said he was going to bring me the data sheets from testing. He said that it is 305 HP on the ground (I really dont know much about racing, parts, and terms). I am green as they get, but REALLY excited about SCCA.
Re: What class for this monster....
Hope you can make the event then. Since you have no catalytic converter in the car, and I doubt you are on a full slick tire, you should be in STM. So just register with STM for the event next week. If I see you out I will introduce myself and we can look over the car a bit.
Re: What class for this monster....
Tires have to be 140 treadwear or above for STM. Other than that, you should be good to go. Look forbthe threads about things newbies should read.
Are you going to run at Adesa next weekend?

Re: What class for this monster....
lol... 175 psi in the fuel system, a "high compression" bov , and for some reason only tuned for 12 psi on a td04?
sounds like you have some fun times ahead of you

Forget about any other parts right now, just go get some really wide... really sticky tires.

Id for sure get the dyno charts from the previous owner. 12psi and a 2.0L just doesnt add up to 300awhp. my sti with 2.5L and 18.9psi makes 270 awhp on a mustang dyno (low reading) just for reference.

Re: What class for this monster....
Yeah, 305 at the wheels is a bit of a stretch. The TD04 just won't get you there, especially on a 2.0 and at only 12lbs of boost. My 06 WRX wagon with the TD04 topping out at 21lbs of boost would only barely crack 260 at the wheels. I'm also guessing you mean it has a 175lph fuel pump, not 175 psi of fuel pressure.
Still a great car though and should be a lot of fun to autocross. I regret not autocrossing mine...

Learn how to adjust your rear toe. Toe out in the rear is absolutely necessary

unless some genius has blasted the toe nuts on there with an impact, and the car is originally from Alaska. Then, well, you may be SOLthrdeye wrote:Learn how to adjust your rear toe. Toe out in the rear is absolutely necessary

Re: What class for this monster....
Explain the toe out in the rear. What will this cause? The new car is an oversteering monster, but its hard to control in the slaloms.

Re: What class for this monster....
Toe out will allow the car to turn in a sweeper without bouncing on and off the throttle to try to get it to turn.
If you feel like you're waiting waiting waiting on the car during a sweeper, and you're sure your line is correct, then the car is probably too pushy.
If it's difficult in slaloms, work doubly hard to make sure you're turning early so that your smooth.
The other approach in an AWD car in a slalom is to wiggle it through with a lot of throttle and some semi harsh steering inputs.
I am anti rear bar in an AWD car. It takes some wotk to make the car drive well without a big rear bar...you ha e to get your pressures and alignment right...., but it's worth it.
