GT Spec-B 300KW Setup
Posted: Wed May 04, 2016 8:08 pm
Hey all,
New member and first time poster, I found this page via the Facebook group and was recommended here. I have also made a post on a WRX forum however thought i may also post here seeing as most of you have similar cars and builds.
So I currently own and daily a 2008 Liberty GT Spec-B, (Did i mention I LOVE it?) I have been planning a build for a while now and have a rough idea however my expectations and goals have recently shifted as I have planned and put extra money aside to go the forged route.
I was hoping some of you could shed some light in the way of experience and even feedback on my planned set up so far. Perhaps point out some weak points, necessary/un-necessary and overall more cost efficient ways of achieving my goals.
My expected power goal is roughly 300kw on 98RON pump fuel with a decent level of practicality as this is my daily driver. Now of course I don't expect a lag proof set up and nor will I be doing 1/4 mile, However will be doing the occasional track day every month as well as some weekend/afternoon mountain roads.
Current planned build is as follows:
