You still shoulda taken him but you shouldn't be neck and neck goin into 2nd. He had to have meth injection to be running that much boost.

Nice.

I would think at 26 psi it would have made for a closer race. But who knows this guy could have just been a tool.

I dunon where you fellas finds these guys. Who says "I have 26psi" Man thats funny. Im glad you beat him. He couldnt have been running 26psi unless he had race gas or meth injection.

You cant run 26psi on any turbo on pump gas with 93octane, it will knock like crazy and pull timing and youll lose tons of power. Most EVO9s when tuned can get away with 24psi. No stock EVO runs 12.6s either.

The only way to run 26psi is with race gas, a race gas mix, or alcohol/methanol injection. You CAN run it, but the car will be slower than it would be if it were at 24psi.

im with you electric. so many people claim these wild times from EVO's and STIs stock. mid to high 12s. and i never see them run but mid 13s some low 13s

ive witnessed 1-2 12.9s but they had to blast the clutch and gears off the line to do it

Exactly. 99% of EVOs with a competent driver should run 13.0-13.6 depending of the year. 2003-04s being slowest, 2005s then 2006s fastest. Ive seen a couple EVO9 (2006s) hit 12s stock actually at the local track but its certainly not common.

God forbid had you used the spray....because Evo owners will chime in and crucify you for racing an Evo and using spray. The must have some sort or confidence problem.
