Report on Hallett Raceway
On October 26th I ran my car at Hallett in the HST DE devision for lapping. It was my first time on any track including autocross. It was a great experience. Everyone was helpful and very nice. it's a wonderful track and the curves suit the car very well. I did have one moment when my eyes got as big as silver dollars. The driver in the front car put his car into a spin at around 70mph. There was a big cloud of smoke and i just hit the brakes not knowing where to go. I didn't want to go off on the grass at that speed. All was well. It turned out to be a really fun day Everyone should try it. I ran the track on Michelin SS Pilots and they did very well. Air pressure at 32 PSI |

Sounds great. I love my Michelin PSS's. I always meant to go to Hallet with WRX and never did. I will need to get up to Hallet in March or whenever the next session is. Anyways, this is my first post in the Oklahoma threads. So everyone here in OK... hello. It looks like there have been meets or hang out sessions in the past here around OKC. When is the next one?

Awesome Bernie, glad you got to go to Hallett. Thanks for the report. Get any pics?
I'd like to go some day, but need to get new tires first. Looking at PSS's too. Sent from my RM-820_nam_att_100 using Tapatalk

Thanks! I am interested in checking out this FBM turbo setup. Trying to not go boosted so soon, but oh so intrigued.

Well, I can tell you I love my FBM setup so far and I haven't even had the chance to run my E85 map. It will add an additional 130whp to my current 270whp that it runs on 91. I have kept my psi levels very low. I don't care to set records or even be the baddest BRZ on the road. I am past that now, I used to be that way with earlier cars, but now I just like to drive my car....err faster than most people. Anways, if you want to see my build thread it is under the FORCED INDUCTION topic, and the thread header is "My trip to FBM ....FBM premium turbo kit" . I would add a link, but honestly I have no clue how to do it.

I really am leaning toward the twinscrew blower setup because I would get hungry for more. My STi is the fast car, this is just my beater. I do love driving it and know that it would be much nicer with another 100hp or so.
We have a local Sprintex dealer and he's been chatting with me on the local Subaru forum about picking up a BRZ. I just need to get my STi back on the road before I really spend much more on the BRZ. I think once I look at a turbo I'll have a hard time staying away. I do have a GT3076R coming off of my STi and a friend who's a bad ass welder/fabricator. Maybe I can have him knock out the piping and intercooler... Damn, must resist!

Very nice, looks awesome! Did you retain stock wheel height? Wheel and tire specs? And how much of a drop did you do?
