Default Must Do

If you do nothing else in your life go to Sepang and drive a race tuned STI as fast as y can. I was invited last week by the maniacs at edge tuning in Singapore to do just that. The car they lent me was pushing around 420bhp.
What an experience to drive on a modern F1 circuit.How the guys get an F1 car round there at the speeds they achieve I have no idea.

The only real critisism of an STI7 on the ragged edge is understeer.I am putting mine in the same state of tune so any ideas on how to get rid of this apart from braking a little earlier

slide back the DCCD

fitting wider front tires would stop them losing grip before the back

Steve my man......I see that you have enjoyed yourself!

Apart from uprating the usual front and rear arbs and their settings, you need Spec C A-arms and legacy hubs to make sure you dont fly off the cliffs of Phuket!

Next Edge Tuning's Sepang track day is in December. Better get your PE1825 in...
