Theres something wrong - that mph is pretty low. I'd get your car checked out. Cars can sometimes go into "limp mode" where the boost is reduced due to the computer picking up a fault somewhere. Your car should not be doing 16's at high 80 mph, try low 14's and highish 90's.

gumby2006, I was referring these comments, not yours. What I meant was that don't be bothered by comments such as these, and be sure not to pay much attention to the value of such recommendations as "ram change" and "slam gears".

And most importantly, just have fun.

Is that also why your car is currently back at the workshop fixing a gearbox?

If you say, for example, fuck a up a "slam gear" or "ram shift" while, say for example, going for third, you will smash your box hard. For example you havnt got it quite in gear before you pop the clutch.....

I know this very well

WRX gearbox's arent that weak. They will take a shit load of abuse with the standard clutch, thats for sure.
