Not that I have heard of.

I don't expect the hero runs to be made till fall though when the weather and the DA's get better.

I'm guessing it was hawt *** hell when they put it on the dyno because k&n engineering use's a DYNOJET and that number was the lowest i have seen thus far. As we all know DYNOJET tends to be a little on the high side which doesn't make sense can anyone shed some light on this? Maybe it would have hit 200 if it wasn't down on power or maybe it shows a glimpse on how much the heat was taxing the motor.

Nice, wonder what mods? They are being very quiet about it until they release the magazine.

Apparently Evo's best run so far was a 9.89@143mph.

We don't know the mods list. We know the car is running slicks and skinnies. I have seen it posted that it is still the stock blower. Best guess is exhaust, intake, tune, tires, and crank pulley.

It wasn't true, the guy who posted it said he read something wrong so as far as we know the low 10 second is the best.
