BTW - teh teksid block was used up to 01.........that was the same casting as the 98. The problem with the 98s are they heads. they dont' flow as nice, and the cams as well....and, yep..they love boost.

Why are you only running 20psi?

You should say that they can be "mid to low 12 second cars" with a "full exhaust, tune, and a substantial increase in boost pressure via a boost controller".

What you neglect to mention is that the boost controller substantially ups the boost pressure, which is obviously going to make more power. How much more power depends on how much you up the boost.

Its funny how ricers think you can crank up the boost as much as you want as long as its not detonating, however, its still taking its toll on the motor. Good luck having highly boosted motor last 75K or 100K miles, regardless of whether the motor is built for boost or not, its rough on everything.

A stock IX runs almost 21psi stock. Most raise it to 23-24psi depending on octane gas and that is still very reliable. I know its hard for people like TransAnimal to understand but 23psi isnt "ungodly" high. A TBE, MBC, and tune will yeild 320+whp and can dip in the low low 12's. Some IX's have run 12's stock so thats not a full second difference. Will all drivers be able to pull those times? Of course not, but it is capable.
BTW the biggest advantage of a boost controller is to keep the boost from tapering at higher rpm's which stock Evo's do quite abit.

Just do this... the 5 second rule. Before you type something, think about it for 5 seconds and ask yourself is this logical? It never is, so stop wasting everyones time by making us read your replies which are completely off cue, senseless and offensive. Thanks!@
I never said the stock 4G63 can't handle 550WHP. I said it can't handle that kind of power in the long run. You obviously have no comprehension of the stresses that boost puts on the internals of the engine. Did you even finish high school, or did you drop out so you could save up to buy your shitty Evo?? I'm guessing the latter, because you're a straight up retard if you can't understand that.
You aren't going to get over 100K miles reliably out of a highly boosted and modified 4G63. The rings will be more than shot by then, and the motor in general will be ready for an overhaul. Your precious Mitsubitchi engines aren't as great as you think they are riceboy.
Heres a 5 second rule for you...take 5 seconds and look at your car. If you don't start laughing at it, then you're a true moron riceboy.

Get a life dude, seriously, it was funny before, but now you're just retarded
Do everyone a favor and "Go home", back to where people might actually like you and your shitty car.
