Question Mark

 

a stock turbo doesnt make it a stock STi. Just because a modded STi pulls above 164mph doesn't mean a stock one does.

 

....your running a stock turbo......stock psi is 14.5psi.....so maybe you have it turned up to 19-20? not sure the limitations of the stock turbo....you have what else done...intake exhaust....cobb access port? so your putting down.....maybe 350 hp? i believe thats what the lol was intended for. correct me if im wrong please

 

i've made clear my mods many times, its even in my sig. I have full exhaust. I made 300whp, nothing earth shattering.

 

You also said you cooked a piston ring with a different tune. Sounds like more than just an exhaust to me.

How do you plan on proving the other person wrong? He said the max speed they could get a "stock" STI to was 164mph.

 

A stock STI theoretically shouldn't be able to pass 155mph due to being electronically limited, however with that removed(with a tune), the speed at redline in 6th gear is 176mph.

 

def true....not earth shattering

 

What does the power curve look like at 7000K rpm?

I don't think a stock STI has enough bottom end to hit 170+ without a significant tailwind and going downhill. Tq peak is right around 2500-3000 rpm, right? goes steadily downhill from there and by 7000 RPM you have as much TQ as you did at 1000 RPM. Combine that with diminishing HP numbers and aerodynamic drag increasing exponentially with speed i'd venture to guess that it's going to top out under 170. up the boost and retune for a little more TQ up top and you might be able to get there but it's going to push the turbo to its limit.

i dont think a stock sti could get there either

 

why do you follow ITS N STI everywhere he goes?



ITS N STI,

I'd be a little worried about Kurt there bro. He seems to be in love with you or something.

 

I'm pretty sure he likes making love to sweet vagina and not hairy *** hole.

 

You are dreaming if you think a stock STi will hit 170 mph.
No way on this earth. Maybe if you dropped it out of a plane?

 

I never said a stock STI could hit 170mph, I said they top out at 176 @ 7000rpm in 6th.

 

Which is totally theoretical, it is only saying that the gearing is sufficient. The power and aerodynamics may make it totally improbable. Not that my car will do 176 either!!

 

People have been past 7000RPM in 6th gear.

I myself have gone to 6700rpm in 6th, so that's about 170mph, and I only shut down because of an approaching corner.

 

now if only STi's could turn......

 

Sorry I don't feel comfortable going around a turn doing 170mph

 

i would def have to agree with you on that one

 

if it where dropped out a airplane it would go 120 like everything else...

 

terminal velocity. and i do agree on the turning thing. thats what sold me on rx7s.

test drove a brand new 05 STI, had something like 80 miles on it. a week before that i had test driven a 93 rx7 with 140k on the clock and blown turbos.

needless to say, i now have an FD

 

are you sayin STI's can't turn?

 

Google dosnt have any experaince.


I would much rather go from PROVEN experaince, than some ******* bullshit mathematics.

Also, ill go with the proven facts of STI's wining natinal championships for the past 2 years.


but hey, i bet google knew that too right?

 

You better have alot more than full exhaust to pull 300whp... I would think a custom tune and turbo back exhaust might do it though!
