With AWD vics the torque is absorbed by the tranny and axles as opposed to RWD/FWD where the torque is absorbed by the tires burning out.
To launch AWD safely(if launching at all can be considered safe), you have to slip, but slip very fast. Its no too difficult to pick up, as this is only my third launch attempt in this video. I havent launched since..........
description is says it all. but still a great launch ... who cares about these assholes saying shit. there sitting at home typing while your crusing in your STI 0.o
@yzfr6003 the clutch on the sti is designed to take a launch like that, you could launch that thing at each red light for 2 years before the clutch would need to be replaced.
@SleepyMongoose My clutch disc finally wore out around 55,000 miles. Did some SCCA events, lots of fast take-offs, and general hard driving. I didn't cook my clutch all that much, but I think the guy who owned the car for 8,000 miles before me didn't know how to drive the car. Glad the engine and transmission haven't had any issues in 5 years. I replaced the stock clutch with a slightly stiffer ACT SS organic clutch and a lighter flywheel. Next time I'll go HD.
kudos to u bro... bad ass ... i person that knows what he is doing.. bout time... he didnt bounce it off the rev limiter....!!!! he kept it in the power....
@coolgames14 LMFAO so you live at home!!! the only retarded here is you that knows nothing about STIs and keep on talking like a little bitch go and tell mom and daddy.. You are so dumb that actually contradicted yourself "you find an STI for 15 grand dont buy it. It prob doesnt have a drive train " then said "sti do cost 15k, depend on where u buy it sir" WHAT AN IDIOT!!!
lovely launch on your car my friend!! i hope you don't mind I have attached some video responses from my Grey Wagon. unfortunately the Turbo doesn't spool till 4500rpm so I can't get those clean launches as I have to build 1.5 bar OR it bogs on 0 bar :(
in the norm stage 1 is either a TBE and an AP v2 or switch and have a CAI instead...but when you combine the 2 its normally stage2 unless u wanna get into the extras but thats the main basic idea
google search cobb accessport v2 and get reading lol, its a plug in tuning device that remaps your cars computer, stage 2 being the highest tune which requires a TBE (turbo back exhaust)
Different aftermarket companies sell different "power stages." For the cobb accessPORT, stage 2 can just be flashed off the shelf, where as stage 2 requires a high flow intake filter and turbo-back exhaust.
@cheesetitsunclejesus new into the car world. Stage1, 2, 3 does that mean your changing the turbo or supercharger, or are you simply adding more boost? thanks man
@Ericsson787 People refer to stages when they're talking about a pre-built performance package. Usually when someone says stage 1 or 2 for subaru's, it's referring to one of the Cobb packages which don't mess with the turbo. Anyone who talks about their engine in stages and has major work done like turbo upgrades and internals more than likely paid someone to do the work AND research and has no idea what's under their hood.
@coolgames14 you obviously don't own one and never will! let me guess you live at home with your parents. Please do your research before you open your mouth kid.

I meant, is he dropping the clutch? Slipping the clutch? Dropping it to the friction point then feather off the clutch? Some detail so I don't leave the scent of a burning clutch after I drive off.
Hey man, awesome car, awesome name, awesome launch. I've got me a bugeye with a 6 speed swap, still trying to get used to it and AWD launches, how do you let off the clutch?
With AWD it is best to slip the clutch and not keep in it too long but don't let out too early or you wil bog it down. If you just dump it that is REALLY hard on an AWD tranny. And I would recommend launch control it helps your car to maintain a certain RPM when launching and it helps you to not over rev your engine. Check out my WRX acceleration vid after my mods and let me know what you think.
AP was using to tune, which was done by scott siegel. Great tuner. He stays conservative which is a must for daily drivers.
