Curious Question

What should a 04 WRX run in the 1/4 mile that has full exhaust (no up-pipe), and a MBC? I'm just curious to see what you guys think.

No up-pipe should be running around 20 seconds in the quarter.

Seriously though, I would say high 13s. Then your car would blow up. MBC is bad, read the faq.

yeah MBCs are bad news to begin with let alone having one without replacing the up-pipe read this Boost Controllers and You...

Take it to the strip and find out.

It's really hard to say how quick it is. Without tuning and just cranking the boost up, you're probably going to be knocking/pulling timing. This is very bad for power production, and even worse for engine longevity.

FWIW, my time was with just a turboback, uppipe and a K&N short ram. My 60 ft sucked, and I could've driven alot better. If that helps you at all.
