He wasn't excessively revving or anything, maybe 2-3K at launch. The pull on him after was intense to say the least. Mainly 3rd and 4th. 1st and 2nd was probably down to driver.

the engine and car runs? That's great news!
Concerning the camshaft position sensor and crankshaft position sensor. If one of them fails the engine immediately stops. So if you have misfire than there has to to be something else wrong.

It's fantastic Markus!
That's the problem, I am unsure what could be wrong. It only misfires when the CAM sensor is plugged in. With it out, no problems at all.

And for the record, the STi is MUCH faster than the WRX. It would be like comparing an NA and SRT, even though they both have boost, the WRX is rated something like 60-70HP less than the STi and the STi has a very conservative rating. Just saying'
Yes! A kill is a kill, but believe me, he was trying pretty hard lol. He had some lightning shifts on my slow *** shifting too, but I was just being cautious on my clutch. It was just as soon as I landed a gear the pull was enormous for 3rd and 4th.
I don't think it was heavily modded or anything but exhaust for sure... Well, I guess it couldve been a catback or a muffler but still that flat 4 sounded amazing.
Yeah, I just meant dig to 60. Supposedly the WRX's have the upper hand from weight or something. Never looked into real world though lol.
