for the RS guys
hey guys
just out of curiosity, what kind of 1/4 mile times have you manage to hit....just want to get a general number of what to expect from a N/A RS....from what i've heard before they usually run 15.4 with the normal bolt on stuff like intake exhaust etc....thanx

Chris & Hugh,
I've got a block that Mike gave me that I'd offer up, so long as you let me come help you build it up...well, you can have it even it you won't let me.
I'm not trying to mess up any deals, though.

I did. I broke a one time deal of 14.9 at the expense of my clutch about two years ago. I believe Earl did one too. I was not able to back that time up after that and was only able to manage a couple of 15.2's before I sold my car. This is how I did it:
I lined up the car, hit the rev limiter, dropped the clutch, and floored it. I kept it floored while shifting, just popping the clutch the whole way down, never letting off the gas from the staging lights....you shoulda been there to smell the clutch on the return road!
Ahhh, memories.....

Still interested in the WRX block? If you are, I was wondering if we could swap heads, but I want to keep the WRX cams.

Are you attending KCC again this semester? Do you still have your book for English 209?
Good luck on your project!

I got the alarm installed. It worked great for about 2 months, but yesterday when it rained it went haywire. Won't work at all now, but I've still got my kill switch and autolock so I should be allright, but the alarm situation is a PIA.
