A big thank you to Felix Performance for letting me stop by and check out the shop and the MONSTER 2022 WRX. I can't believe I got a chance to ride in their 660 HP 2022 VB WRX! They are also great people to talk to. Melanie was as nice as I expected! James and Anthony were full of fantastic information as usual! This new WRX has proven to be an incredible platform. Even if you're1 not building it to 600 hp it is a lot of fun and a very capable car.

People are mentioning the audio in this video. There was some clipping and we had loud fans in the shop. I adjusted in post to the best of my abilities. // This was a lot of fun. Thank you to Felix Peformance for letting me come out there.

@QactisX Год назад

Awais I never gave you a shoutout for your volume levels on the BG music in your vids lately. 1000x better sounds great

@HeavyMetalWRX Год назад

@@QactisX hahah yes!! I remember you mentioned the background music and you were right! I just dropped it about 4 db and now I think it's in a good spot! 🤘

@PocketDrummer 3 месяца назад

You're doing it backwards. You want to record where the volume is averaging -18dBFS and peaks are at about -12dBFS. Preferably recording 24-bit instead of 16-bit. That gives you headroom to raise it back up in post without worrying about noise. Once you've clipped the mic, you'll never recover that data. It's literally "clipped" off digitally. As far as overall levels go for RU-vid, your mix is WAY too loud. RU-vid requires loudness (it's different from peak volume) to be at -14 LUFS (loudness units full scale). If you use DaVinci Resolve for your editing, the Fairlight page actually has a meter for this. If you upload a video above this, RU-vid crushes it back down to -14 LUFS, and you get audio degradation. This video was turned down 55%. Right-click on the video and look at "Stats for nerds". It's showing 7dB too high. If you fix those two things, your videos will sound a lot better. I hope this helps.

I mean...456hp/541tq on stock is insane...but if you consider you blew 3rd on a pull, you were already waaay past the functional limits of that transmission. I cant see the stock transmission surviving beyond 350hp/400tq give or take if you are gonna go hard.

@HeavyMetalWRX Год назад

I have a feeling it'll be closer to 450 tq. The clutch is going to go first imo, for a lot of these non 600 hp cars.

@716Flat4 Год назад

@@HeavyMetalWRX I am still blown away at how much this new 2.4 has to give which is why I have to agree. The clutch, transmission, diffs, xfer case...I think it is likely that they all become the limiting factors before the engine does, especially if digs are involved...time will tell us soon. As warranties get close to expiration and more parts come out the modding is going to get insane and the truth will be shaken out.

Wait, it’s safe to rev these to 7k?

@HeavyMetalWRX Год назад

With a tune it's looking like 7k is safe...but it's still testing.

@louisthibault555 Год назад

@@HeavyMetalWRX Awesome! How long have tuners been testing that limit? Im trying to gauge how risky it is…

@kristian50 Год назад

love the content but man that Mic has got to go. If you can turn down the gain setting.

@HeavyMetalWRX Год назад

Appreciate it! The mic was adjusted to 0db from my normal -12db gain to compensate for the loud fans we had in the shop. I added noise reduction in post and messed up the audio. So the mics are good! 🤘
