You will be fine carlos.


Now heads cam cars here are running bottom 11's and high 10's easy. Houston is populated with 10.8 second h/c cars like TxcamnSS who is a lady here on the board.

Shows how much DA at the track kills you. But i cant help Carlos with his ****-tastic driving skills. Get some MT/ET streets before that intake, and see what that car can really do!!


BTW that fstrthnU guy really was not worth the time, but then again most cant stand **** against STF!

When all a guy (me) can muster is a high 1.8 60', stellar times will never be had. But hey, my goal is mid/high 11's, daily driven, on the tires commute to work in. It's finally gonna happen.

I saw an A4 black WS6 Firechicken with similar mods to yours and DRs run an 11.70 at Beech Bend. Pretty freaking nuts.





where are you from???

We might beat him in a race, but he'll still have enough gas to drive to argentina!

And he makes more hp/liter too

hp/liter is a worthless number. who cares? if you wanna stick a 7 liter engine in my car that weighs the same as my 5.7, and only makes 100 extra hp, i'll still take it. my hp/liter will have gone down, yet my hp/lb ratio would have gone up.

as for going fast in a straight line... EVERYBODY likes going fast in a straight line. don't pretend you don't (unless you've got a phobia about speed or something, in which case what are you doing in an automobile with more than 100hp anyway?). That being said, I really would like to race my t/a on some road courses... you know, like something out of GT3 or PGR2... although I reckon the t/a wouldn't handle nearly as well in the curves on the stock suspension as those evos would.

I could care less about driving around orange cones in a parking lot though.

That wasn't very cool.


And your point is???? i changed your post because you are the immature person that is coming on the board and trolling. please clean up your act and make a good showing for the other EVO guys on the board. when we get people like you that pull this on the board, it puts a sour taste in all of the other guys mouths about that type of vehicle owner. Im sure you will enjoy the technical info on the site, and the kill stories, and we do not mind you being here. Just quit acting like you are 10, grow up and post something that is worth the boards time and bandwith. Thanks

Still quite interested in this.
