Stonkin Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 personally i dont think you will be playing catchup for that long. To get decent standing starts from a scooby you need to seriously rev it and dump the clutch, how often is he gona want to do that. If your a decent bpu, say around 400 fwhp i dont think there will be much init. My mate has a classic sti with 300fwhp, if he does a serious start, he will jump ahead a little, by 50/60 its neck and neck and after that, he realises he bought the wrong car! This also comes from experience of previosuly owning a classic impreza that had work done to it. Sitting side by side on the motorway doing about 80/90 leptons, i can give him a head start and still munch him up and spit him out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 He will eat you for breakfast off the line though! Not necessarily, I've suprised many a scooby off the line at the strip. You should easily beat him anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 ADD - get your car up to 1.2 and give it a go, infact give it a go now at 0.9, i think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dee_rz Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 you will kill it easy mate, someone i knows has 350 in his wrx 6 speed conversion the lot and more and i run him with only 0.8 bar and were about even, with 1.2 it will be a huge kill mate no worries providing you don't miss two gears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbeh Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I couldnt class yourself as propper BPU if you're not running much higher than stock boost. I think it'd be pretty close up to 100 leptons on 0.9 boost but you'd walk him easy if you cranked it up to 1.2+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 i would agree but i have the Basic Power Upgrades No you don't, BPU involves increasing the boost, otherwise you're not running much more than stock power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I think so, you'll need a good start though if it's off the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 It would be very close imho.. the only thing in the Supras favour would be the 4WD on the scooby stealing a lot of the power at high end speed, and aero dynamics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
