Even from a dig. Done properly, the live axle will crush AWD.

 

I came from a Stage 2 2009 WRX with one of the best tunes out there(Phattbotti). A Stage 2 WRX would probably keep up with a coyote but I still think the coyote would walk it. If it's a Stage 2 WRX on corn then bye bye.

Bad driving maybe?

 

According to the OP, he runs a solid 0-60. So I don't think it's driver. I think the wrx was modded.

 

I gotta go the track, i should have walked him. Driver error is out of the question. 3rd from4k rpm to redline with a quick shift to 4th.

 

Either I am missing it or its not listed, read posting rules and terms of service and I didn't see it.

 

Lol. That drivers mission has been accomplished. I wonder how many v8's I drove nuts saying I was stock...lol

 

Yeah i think he wanted to screw with me lol. Only way to find out is to go to the track.

 

Interesting. I've always seen street racing threads closed. Maybe just uptight mods?

 

Haha thats for sure.

 

Was his car loud at all? Did it have a stinky smell to it (catless)?

 

I didnt hear his car at all over my gt500s and screaming engine. And no smell.

 

There is absolutely no way a bone stock wrx can beat a 5.0. Those cars a low 14s! An Sti would give a little better run, they run low 13s but still no Match for a 5.0! Import guys like to BS!

 

Smelled like fried rice. Mmmmm

 

Lol not so much in this case tho, almost a fried 5.0 hahaha

 

lol no one got fried. I think its time for bama or steeda tune.

 

Just came from a Stage 2 2012 STi. No way it was stock. My car now would leave that thing for dead. Although right off the line it is tough to beat an sti or a wrx dropping its clutch at 5500rpm. But after 50 its bye bye. On a roll there is no comparison.

 

Kind of off subject but can someone answer me how does the 2014 wrx with its 4 cyclinder turbo get the same rated mpg as the 2014 V8 5.0? Weird

 

Yeah i agree. Thats why i was so shocked when he said his shoe box is stock. Lol typical import guy.

 

Haha i I know, i think because they are pushing high boost. You loose efficiency even with a 4 banger. Either way my 5.0 was sounding so mean, muted his car completely.

 

Coming from the turbo 4 world, the wrx is at a 13.5 second quarter mile bone stock. Just a tune and minor mods and you are in the 12s... These cars from a dig will be a pretty good match for the 5.0

Where traction isn't an issue (like from a roll) the mustang should win out. AWD has more drivetrain loss, but has much better traction... But there are focus st's and mazdaspeed 3s with fwd that will roast stock WRX from a roll and keep up with a 5.0. But they are heavily modded. I say he's probably modded and he probably had a gearing advantage at that speed. The mustang traps 10 mph faster than a wrx in the 1/4 so... He must be modded.

Actually after looking at motor trend data... The 2013-2014 wrx has no handling advantage and is slower in the acceleration tests than a track pack 5.0 he can't be stock. If you have a tune, and he's keeping up, he has to have at least a tune, intake and downpipe and have a factory freak
