Subaru wrx 2015 stage 1 Videos

+semiautoriflelover1 Yes, I'm running windows 10

+semiautoriflelover1 I always take that stuff out at auto crosses and I have a set of light weight 18" with Hankook RS3's on them just for Auto crosses

Just used the standard stage 1 93 map at the time

I have the N1 Race exhaust..does not contain any resonators. It is much louder than the typical cat back system.

Yes much louder

Pumped 

+Jacob Davine lol, Iooks can be deceiving. The highest speed limit on this canyon road is 35 mph. As for my ability in driving a manual and knowing what gear to be in, Im pretty sure I know what Im doing. Watch some of my other videos I posted on youtube of me driving my rex, and tell me you have the same confidence in your driving that I have. Im guessing you don't, and if you did, please by all means post a video, and teach me. lol

yeah there are some awesome roads here! im always looking for new ones. as for the gains its probably more like 20-25. its hard to say unless I took the car and actually had a real dyno test done on it. My AP comes with a dynometer, but its not very accurate. If you go to cobbs website, they have a section where they did a dyno on a stock wrx wtih just stage 1//www.cobbtuning.com/Dyno-Database-s/70119.htm278 hp 299 ft/lb. keep in mind this is on 93 octane, compared to 91 which is all that is available in AZ.Im still very pleased with the results im getting from just tuning the ecu.

I live down in the valley.  I've loved that road for many years.  Just added 500 miles to my Rex today, took my kids to the Grand Canyon.  I now have 3300 miles on it.

nice bro! Glad you got to take your rex on that run too, it definitely shows you how well the handling is on the 2015. Do you live up in the white mountains, or the valley? That is an awesome road to drive, just lots of traffic on it sometimes during the day. You should drive the canyon at night bro when hardly anyone is on it. I ran it again a few weeks ago when I was going up to showlow, it was like 11 pm and there was no one on it, it was awesome! It never gets old driving that canyon for me.. just hitting those 25 mph corners in 3rd gear and giving it WOT. Way better handling than my previous 2011 WRX hands down. Anyways, how many miles do you have on your 2015 brian?

+Dellion The WRX CVT does come with "launch control", but it's in "quotes" for a reason.  When most people think of launch control, they think of software in the computer that limits wheel spin to get a high powered car off the line as quickly as possible.  In the WRX CVT, you are nowhere near spinning the wheels when using launch control.  Basically, you hold the brake, then floor the throttle.  The engine RPM is then held at 2500 RPM...against a torque converter.  When you release the brake, that's all that's happening.  All the engine torque has already been sent through the driveline and to the wheels and is building against the brakes.  When they are released, the wheels are now allowed to accelerate the car, which they do rather slowly compared to raising the engine RPM and then  sending a whole bunch of engine speed, which is rotational mass and engine torque combined to the wheels in a sudden and forceful manner which is what happens when you drop the clutch in a manual.  In addition, when you're holding the brake with the throttle floored, the turbo is building exactly ZERO boost.  I mean that litterally, the boost guage reads exactly zero.  No boost and no vacuum.  Boost builds immediately AFTER launch, but isn't used to actually launch the car.  When you add it all up, and this has been varified in several automotive publications, the manual is about 1/2 second faster to 60 as well as through the 1/4 mile.  The numbers speak for themselves.And, BTW, I'm not talkin' out my ass here, I happen to own a '15 WRX CVT.  Don't get the impression that I don't like it though, I do...very much in fact.  I'm just aware of it's limitations.

i really dont care about 0-60 this is just my work/fun car, ive been driving stick for 11years, so actually to me, cvt feels faster than stick coz i dont have to shift it just go lol, maybe someday when i have lil money ill buy something different

+jasonswrx The 2015 WRX CVT does come with 'Launch Control' btw. Why are you saying "The thing about the cvt wrx is you can't launch them"?

It runs great on stage 1. It has power all the way up to redline. I have a 6 speed though, not the CVT. It's gonna be different. I got about a 30hp and 30tq increase over stock. It's worth the money for the manual wrx. I've never driven the cvt so I can't really be too sure. The thing about the cvt wrx is you can't launch them, so you're zero-60 time will come no where close to a 6 speed manual

Lol you have no idea. I got so lucky filming this. The other side of the mountain is the worst. No passing lanes and you have people literally going 15 mph the whole way down, which is 30 to 20 mph under the limit just completely oblivious to the 20 car train they've created behind them which is riding their ass trying to get them to take a hint and pullover and let everyone pass. They look like they're in la la land. Sometimes I'll just blast past them in a no passing zone just to wake them from their deep slumber, lol which makes me the bad guy, unless I'm quick enough to avoid waking them, rofl. If I saw them at the gas station I would say sorry guys I'm not a 15 mph car enthusiast like you guys. I was half tempted to write down their plate number and tell the dmv these guys wanted to take an eye test, and take a driving test to ensure they could continue to drive, just mail in the info to my grandparents. No jk about the dmv but it gets bad like that. Especially in the winter, people from Cold winter areas flood AZ and most of them are so old they can't see over the wheel. Who knows maybe someday when I'm that old I'll be a 15 mph car enthusiast. Maybe 15 mph to them was like 55 mph to a normal driver. They're like how are all these people keeping up with us dear? While they think that I'm thinking of the best way to pass them safely and quickly. I mean come on, I do have 4 other gears, this isn't a 2 speed manual :D

Wasnt on printout but tuner told me 210hp not torque tho. Seemed kinda low maybe it was an off day.
