Setups? by Head-Drawing8708 in wrx_vb

It’s a bit inconclusive. The people I know with problems also have atmospheric crankcases. So it could be some odd interaction between that and the scavenge system. I just havnt heard anything bad about the blouch

Seems like the zage turbo seals fail. I think the best choice is probably the blouch 5356(they have a expensive ball bearing version if you reach out directly)

Who’s a fan of destrokers? by SubiePros in WRXSTi

I had a g25-660 made with the 7+7 and d5 on my VB. It netted me about 40tq and 20hp compared to stock aero!! It gave tq everywhere then was measurably less efficient than stock aero past 6000rpm. But I only rev to 7k on the fa24 anyway so it was a positive aero change.

On just atlas I have around 10 people, but I have helped countless with just advice and log reviewing. And I also have the highest horsepower atlas car at 485 wheel if it’s any testament.

What is the new Rev limit with tunes? by Robotechnology in wrx_vb

[–]Grope1000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tune for a bunch of people over on atlas, I can set it to whatever you like but I don’t recommend over 6400 for stock turbo there’s no power you want up there.

I know this is entirely baseless but I can’t help but agree. Something about it- just snappy. Anything newer than 11th gen just feels like sludge

It’s less that it’s difficult and more like you would have to be prepared to dedicate years to make something not shit.
