2008 WRX tuning

First of all I know most of us don't care that much for Mr DynoFlash but I came across these and well ... the 08-09 WRX's are looking better and better, assuming that they are still using the stock tranny. Numbers over 400wtq and around 310-325whp.

Discuss.

 

'09 wrx's are way different than '08s, but still impressive none the less

 

I don't feel like watching all of those vids, and you can't really see **** of the dyno graphs.

Obviously, the numbers will be inflated on DynoFlash's dyno, but is there a list of mods and a posted dyno graph?

 

Aquamist Bro!

 

Well ****, nevermind. That tells me all I need to know. :biggrin::laugh:

 

1st one they mention a turbo from an LGT (which is the VF40 right?) on top of that they have Aquamist, fuel pump, Perrin TMIC, dp, up, and cb 310whp 415wtq

2nd is just basic stage 2. 250whp 330wtq

3rd is GT30r with injectors and everything from the first one. 432whp 460wtq


Those are big numbers on a stock 5 speed ...

 

That is pretty cool. I would really only need the aquamist and the intercooler for mine to get those numbers.

 

injectors, fuel pump, plus I'm sure there is more

 

I thought they only had stage 2 with perrin intercooler, pump and aquamist and they got 310hp.

 

VF40's are good for around 250-260 WHP on a regular dyno in stage 2 form. Add in some water/meth injection, and those numbers aren't out of the question, especially on Dynoflash's dyno.

See my quote about dynoflash's dyno.

Again, numbers are just numbers. Although I doubt that car will last long on the stock tranny with that GT30 .

Take a look at pretty much every dyno graph posted by DynoFlash on NASIOC. They're all 10-20% higher then every other car of similar modifications.

With that said, I do think the 08+ WRX will make slightly more torque and power then previous years, as a tuner can now tune both the intake and exhaust cam timing.

 

you'll be fine with the stock injectors
but pre 06 will need the upgrade

 

Who can tune 08's in MN now? Cobb or open ECU.

 

If you can wait for the definitions to come out for the 08, then there will be some tuners for you
merchgod's is trying to get all the roms he can so he can start disassembling them.
Nate (if he wants to mess with it)
Or Ron @ RS :biggrin:

 

I was hoping Jorge will come over, but it looks like he is not...

 

But their dyno doesn't run high!

Riiiiiiiiiight.

 

Shane at DB tuned my 08 with Accesport.

 

Thanks Bro!!!!

 

^LOL!! Nice find Dave!

 

is that a knife fish bro?

 

I was just about to say this man I fail. But I can follow that up with F-ing love this S..Subaru, bro.

 

And how do you like it?

 

And what's wrong with that, bro?

 

These cars are looking better and better!

 

I had to protune it because of AEM intake i put in. It was knocking a little, so he fixed that. I got a little more power in the mid RPM range but nothing on top (turbo was out of breath). It runs good, not a bid difference in power gain after tune, but I am happy with it. Waiting for 18G and TMIC in the spring :yumyum:

 

From reading a few pages of that thread, DynoFlash Al doesn't even understand the basic principles of how compressors work, so I take whatever he says with a grain of salt.
