Traction loss isn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. It blows the tires off in second, but thats to be expected. I figured a car with this power would blow through third gear too easily. I rode in a 450whp GS-R years ago, and that car would spin the tires in fourth gear at 100+ mph. If this is an open diff car, being able to hook in third at that power is probably a testament to the rigidity of the chassis. Thanks for the video, as a new ST owner its pretty wild to see what these things are capable of.
That’s because I have custom traction control setup on it. You can see me adjusting it more in the video. With no traction control at all it will go all the way through third spinning the tires. 4th at 3500rpm if I hit it the car will hook.

It is and isn't. Overtime the block is eventually going to crack. See our other video about the 1.5L block we will be using for our builds moving forward. I go into detail.
yes and no. @ 1:42 he turns whats called "Cobb traction control" on. Iv walked full bolt on WRX's and Mazdaspeed 3's like its nothing from digs on a un-preped abandoned track surface using Cobbs TC. Basically, The 'Cobb TC' is so technical and accurate. on a scale of 1/8 It'll adjust timing to the motor, to prevent wheel spin while maintaining constant power. Instead of wheel spin detection, leading to power limiting power like the stock TC.
Its not that hard to get them to these levels just turbo upgrade and fuel upgrade plus the normal bolt ons most do. It could be done under 5k all in prob.
@@edwincotto5226 You can be right around 400 with a single aux port with the 90lb/hr injector. Or 350-375 (Depending on elevation) with the 65lb/hr injector.
@@mydinosaurz5479 Single port is not recommended for anything over 350whp on E40 as the fuel starts to get inconsistent into each cylinder due to turbulence in the intake manifold. These manifolds were not designed to flow wet, so it is focused on air distribution and when you add atomized fuel into it the weight itself can cause disruption in the flow. If you want to make over 350whp you shoudl be using an XDI setup to it's max limit, then you add 4-port injection on top of it.

That is not the same thing. Cobb traction control is a fully custom and tunable traction control.
