The White Beast

I was gonna wait until the new lip came in but I guess I will go ahead and start now and update as changes are made.

I bought the 2004 WRX on April 27, 2005 last year with only 160 miles on her. Those miles were completely on the trip the dealer made from Greenville Subaru to his dealership in Pilot Mtn, NC. At the time I had a 1999 Honda Accord V6 which I hated coming from turbo DSM's and AWD. My buddy Daniel was the first in the area to get a WRX (bugeye-- ) and he gave me the fever. I was actually in the process of saving for a nice downpayment on either an Evo (well I was a DSMer...duh) or a STi. The Evo always scared me as the DSM's were never reliable. Anyways just out the blue I decide to look online for some 03 WRX's. Lo and behold I saw the 04 WRX but they wanted $26,000 for it. I stilled owed $10,000 on the Honda so I made my own deal with the dealer. I told him if he will pay off the Honda and let me walk out the door with taxes and tags for $24,000 consider the car sold. He said he can't do that so I simply said okay bye. 15 minutes later he called back and asked how soon can I do this? I told I can be there tomorrow with a bank check in hand and they told me SOLD! WHOO-HOOOOOOO! I didn't sleep that night and I had a 8 hr drive to get there.

No pics of the stock car but you all know the monster truck stance and all. I vowed to keep it stock until the warranty died but that lasted 3 days. I had uppipe and tbe on the way already. Knowing that I needed EM I got a Cobb Accessport. Installed everything when I got 2000 miles on the car which took me only 2 weeks.

Went to the drag and managed 13.9 on stock tires and suspension....lol I then ordered Perrin Tunersports and got some Toyo TS1 tires.




Then I ordered the FMIC, Deadbolt 18g, modded my stock injectors, and got ready for some newfound power. It was tuned by Topspeed unsuccessfully and always had trouble. First problem was my fault as I had a leaking uppipe. After that the boost was haywire and the fueling wasn't right. I finally took it to Scott Siegel who perfected it and we estimated it at around 310 hp and 295 tq on pump 93 octane. This was good for a 12.5 @ 119 mph!




After Nopi I met my sponsor who hooked me up with graphics and rims. At the same time I got a killer deal on wing risers.




After much research and then seeing the results Milo got, I got the meth injection. Before Scott had a hard time getting my car to take to timing. She just refused to like the timing and this definately fixed it and there is still more timing she will take to but Scott feels we are at the limit of what the stock engine and tranny can take. I also got another killer deal on a Chargespeed kit and the new graphics layout which I like much better. Who wouldn't with the HUGE SOGPD rollcall?






Now this car runs a blinding 11.7 @ 122 which I very strongly feel is a stock block/stock tranny record thanks to my newfound launch technique.

As many of you know I busted the Chargespeed front and was gonna get a Seibon CS carbon fiber front but I am not gonna wait 3 months. Therefore I opted for the C-West front lip that will be painted Aspen White. Not completely as nice but for what I am getting it for painted and shipped I can not beat that. I still think it's gonna look nice. Who cares.....the car flies!

As I dive further into the mods I will keep this updated. In a few days I'll be getting the lip and I also have my windows tinted. Also I have an authentic Aspen White STi hood scoop that is on the car now.

Thanks Scott for bearing with all the phone calls. Thanks Alex and Milo and the entire WRXAtlanta crew for supporting my dreams. And much thanks to the fiancee who bears with me in my insane hopes....lol

Boost on everyone!
