Hey boy's I didn't say they were slow, just sound rough. Certainly agree they need boost for any decent speed. I'm currently working on one with
500+hp and it is cheaper than vw hp, but equivilent vw would eat a subie, they just dont seem to react as well , must be all the extra weight, among
other things. At least thy're flat, for low cg.
Pete I have efi cars as well, even air cooled ones, but I feel carbs do have advantages.

wat you are saying is true! but the head work is the difference.....Not many or any subie operators are doin this

True there. I used to love hosing off blokes in Impreza's Rx's who had all the looks of a WRX but without the turbo. Gee they got cut when top end
2nd an orange block of flats starts pulling past them.
the reason the Subaru flat 4 sounds so throbby is due to the header pipe configuration. Unequal lengths from all 4 pots and the way they then collect
causes the noise. Anybody notice how only a few years ago all the WRC cars changed sound and just now sound like a normal inline 4?? Changed the pipe
design and went to equal length primaries.
Daimo can't wait to hear this thing of yours on dyno on saturday. Should be very nice indeed.

yeah, this weeks tune came up really well.........i thought i was just getting used to it, but found a loose velocity stack (like fallen off!) i get
the feeling it had been like that since "bug-in" as the issues that developed down there have now gone ........so it's like having the new toy all
over again .........
should i bring the stinger?.........do we get the chance to run with the muffler then quickly switch to the stinger?.......it would take all of two
minutes to swap mine out.
i'm not sure if i'll leave here after work Friday (10p.m) and have a kipp or like 3.am Saturday...............strangely enough i haven't been able
to con anyone into the day trip yet!..........JVL maybe?

Rod brought his last year and changed it. Made like 7hp difference, It doesn't take up much room so might as well.

Yep most US-import Cabrios sounds like a Subaru due to the Cal-cat exhaust's unequal-length primaries

I was given the honour of a few laps around the industrial estate in Daimo's birch green Berg powered bug on Dyno Day, youve done a great job mate
from idle through to 6200 rpm it just pulls nicely, thanks again Daimo. See you at Valla.

just realised that vid was not the graphed run, next one is and pulls more rpm for sure
yep, well chuffed
no muffler runs, would have bottomed out on the rollers.....it didn't feel any different on the blocky with the stinger, but maybe my back side was
still numb from the trip
hard to tell where peak rpm was. I told the guy he could run it up to 6500rpm and the power falls just before he backs out of the throttle
...........so it looks as if it was definately above 6000 rpm and had only fell by 1KW when he buttons off

you didnt see the flames screaming out of the stinger? It looked great! At first it looked like you exhaust was molten red but then it was shooting
out the back! I loved the look of the exhaust wrap over the stinger looked really tough!

I'd love to see some of the $100/hr....Just think of how smooth that 98.something horsepower is.
Sounds beaudifull mate.
Rod has certainly made performance vw engines alot more affordable, the 2165 I just finished cost under $5 1/2k fitted inc. me getting paid
some...prob makes about 120 hp
