Default STi nitros setup

Gday.

I intend on getting a small 50-75hp nitros setup installed on my car as i plan running superstreet next motorplex drag season on saturday nights.

Just wondering if anyone on here knows a perth tuner/workshop that deals with nitros installs on subarus.


Just want to push myself down to the lower 11 second zone

But i agree with Nick. I reckon VuSsUte could also go up a size in turbos and add e85 if you want quicker. Dont you just have a dom1.5??? Werent you humming and harring about which turbo to get and was gonna get a twist mount or something and settled for the DOM or even 20gXTR or sometging like that.

Going a bigger turbo and then selling the current one will probs be not too hard on the pocket.

Yes. Thats correct. I have a GT35R sitting in the shed. Just need to get a manifold made up for it and source a front mount.

But I would like a nitros set up also regardless. You need to remember, i only intend to drag race this car.


Problem I have also is, the Dom 1.5 is such a good street turbo and a little scared to go the 35R in fear of daily drivability issues.
Anyone that has driven one will attest to that lol

Yeah bigger turbo and e85 to offset the lag would be the way I would go. But then I have never experienced nos so what do I know?!!

Look forward to seeing where this goes. OP is clearly addikted to boooost! Where the fuck is rj999999 when we need him??

heres a question. Will 1000cc injectors be enough for E85 and 420whp - 430whp. or will have to get 1300 plus?

Umm, you are contradicting yourself a bit here? Only intended for drag racing but concerned about daily drive ability doesn't make sense.
