Conrad you really crack me up.
STD ENGINE ... never mentioned anthing about the ancilliary's ... and the spec was published several times during the variety of discourse that took place last year.
So my post is very clear. STD engine to me is block/pistons/rods/heads/cams/inlet manifold/throttle body/fuel rails. Everything else is ancilliary. The engine did NOT have any internal parts uprated at all, there was no time.

Hopefully thats clear now. And the fuel in the car for that run was VPower which is std pump fuel in Iceland and what it was brought over on.
I know your car couldn't get near this, however its clearly possible as demonstrated by this and Jonno's car which actually was v similar spec but with remapped factory ecu (most of the time)
As for your other comments ... simply no comment, no one is claiming this is the ultimate power car, however its obvious that you don't need loads of power to do good times, just a well balanced setup. And there is plenty of evidence around to support that from several quarters. (thinking of Andy F and Steve Darley here)
assuming you mean the underbonnet observations, they are merely observations and my opinion Never mentioned anything about power versus 1/4 times???? Dont doubt there abillity to do quarters the results speak for themselves, my point..... I dont think the results (dynoed power and taking away the 100 ron fuel) justify the sort of money that will have changed hands....But if the customer is happy thats all that counts....

I always use Optimax plus NF, std mix for me, very well publicised, both STi5 and STi9 the same, look in the projects thread its stated in there.
Cars should be mapped to suit normal conditions so as Iceland is VPower (99 minimum) then thats what this was mapped for.
cheers

The 555 Impreza has completed the first race; a street race (1/8 mile) taking place on an annual three days car festival around our National day, June 17th. The best time was 7,368 sec. (Class and overall winner).
Pictures and result: http://ba.is
Can someone inform of the 1/8 mile time from the last Scooby Shootout?
