I realize that someone with a 300whp Fbody such as yourself might think that is a lot of power, but for a turbo that has made over 700whp, it is not. Horsepower itself has very little significance in engine longevity, it's the torque that will get you. That's something that probably wasn't taught at your oil changing seminar.
Oil changing?? LOL, thats you, which is statistically the target audience of cars such as the Evo and STi. Single, teenage males that work at quick change oil shops. Coincidence?? Definitely not.
That engine will be lucky to last a few months. Take it from an ASE certified technician who works on cars such as these for a living, not some clown *** ricer who trolls the F-body forum with a white trash DSM

Good runs. That evo really runs good. Then again you are at a high elevation and N/a loses alot more power than turbo does.
Longtubes, cai, tune and he will be seeing your tail lights.

Nice runs OP. I'd like to see what bolt-ons and a tune do for you. If you take him from a roll, then you got to go for a dig. It would be quite impressive for you to run him down from a dig as those evo's launch like a bat out of hell.

Anyone who mods their 4 cylinder import to the point where its making that kind of power is either stupid, ignorant, or both. No 2.0L Mitsubishi is going to hold that kind of power for long, especially on stock components.
Its kind of like running down the track on a 200 shot, sure you may be able to do it and pull great numbers, but that doesn't mean its going to last.
If you want to go fast and do it right, you don't buy a Mitsubishi.
And by the way, I own a 4 cylinder turbocharged car, so its not like I don't understand these cars. Its a good daily driver, nothing more. Modding it to beat Z06's retarded, there are much better ways to go fast. And none of them involve 4 cylinders or transversely mounted engines.

He kinda sounds like the ricer making excuses and pulling crap out of his *** about engine longevity. There is a right way to build up those evo's to perform for a long time. Hell, how many fbody trannies hold up after 450rwhp? Every car has it's limitations and those usually can be overcome.
You're just like the retard boy who bought his evo into the shop to fix his charge piping, yet totally ignored the fact that the oil was completely watered down with fuel. Running 30PSI will do that, but he wasn't worried. He said when it blows up, his dad will just buy him another one. Just like you.
and half retarded
Enough said.
