Good runs. That Evo is no joke. Would be smart for him to get a dogbox trans for it.

Yikes 480whp with a built 2.3? Thats terrible or on really low boost. My buddy made 415-420whp with a stock evo 8 longblock hks272 cams and stock evo9 turbo on E85.

It's very conservative on boost. He's not much into street or drag racing. He does a lot of auto x.


And thanks Evan! I think he went to a 5 speed for this year so maybe we can get in a better, longer run without him hitting the brakes lol

Depending on the PSI its at, it may or may not be a major problem.

Friend with a stock 9 longblock (no cams) upgraded turbo in 08ish (before the E85 craze down here) made low 5s on pump. Car was fast as hell back then, would **** up KB cobras.

Makes sense now, the stock evo9 with cams had like 30 something PSI running threw it. Good kill man.

And Evo that makes an honest 500whp and that is brake boosted/shifted (can be tough with stock trans) is a hell of a car to try and beat

The evo i raced this time last year is gunning for me. Constantly calling me out. He wasnt happy with not taking the W. I only made 420whp when i raced him and had no traction/couldnt shift. He made 440ish. Last i heard he made another 100whp with a built motor. That race might happen this year... He should get the win.

That's what I asked him. He said he was going 120. Which I questioned because I was at 110 when I passed him IIRC. I really wish he would shifted 5th to see how it would turn out because I was in the meat of my power. Oh well I guess!

Never driven one so i cannot comment, but i remember him having trans issue and he went all out and got a shep trans. He still owns it. It currently makes 700+ with a forged 2.0, thats why i say for a 2.3 thats terrible. Even on pump.

How do little motors like this make so much torque where a 480whp LS1, or LQ9 or whatever making that power would make significantly less torque... Isn't the "torque mod" a common hate term we muscle car guys use when making fun of imports?

What a terrible setup. You can make mid to low 400s on a stock turbo, stock motor.
