LT1 vs EVO *vid he took me down 
mods: stock turbo, bolt ons, cams, meth injection.
FYI, we ran these passes consecutively and my bottle pressure dropped after each pass, obviously.

My only excuse is after 100 my car started breaking up bad. Thinking it is clogged injectors.

yeah cam, I could sort of hear your car breaking up some at the top of 3rd.
Stall looks like its workin great.
Good runs though, I didnt think that Evo's top end would be as good as it was.
What do those redline at with the turbo?

Redline on the tach says 7000 yet the actual rev limit is set at 7600. Going over 7000 with the stock cams is worthless. With a pair of cams, you can rev to 7500 and things will be dandy. Dont confuse stock EVO top end with an EVO with some cams. They fix that completely.

Haha having owned an Evo with cams I can tell you they pull pretty hard up top, the awd thing is way overrated. My Evo's redline was set at 8200rpm, but I had the valves, springs etc. They only drop in psi up top if they are not reflashed or your not running a boost controller. My wife actually ran an Evo 9 this weekend in her Z06 and got beat, not by much she satrted to catch him by the 1/4 mile mark and shes on some bald tires 
But they are fast, peolpe underestimate them a lot IMO.

I usually build around 15-18 lbs of boost off the line when im on slicks, it all varies tho as to where the stutterbox is activated i set mine to 6500 rpms.
yeah, all new evos come with it. i guess its called launch control. first time my buddy did it i thought he was bounching it off the limiter but i guess it will hold that rpm till you drop the clutch. its a neat little feature. still a good race.

guess 2 steps in little turbo 4's dont sound as good as ones in v8's.
should have made it when the 2 step engaged it raised a pink flag and hazards would start flashing. would be more appropriate.
