I thought Evos were quicker than this?

The AMS stroker kit is 3K...
http://www.amsperformance.com/store/...products_id=94
Not sure what kind of turbo they are using.. GT35R = 1200 dollars, Cams = 600+
4G63 is a VERY flexible engine platform.

So its safe to assume that you honestly think thats all he has invested in the car.

If you actually read the threads instead of just posting bullshit, you'd see I was working on an Evo the other day, which happened to fail a radiator pressure test, because the idiot owner was running 30PSI daily.
When you know something besides how to post on the internet, come back and start ****. Until then, shut the **** up.

Next, I am happy to hear that our military does this as procedure.
I can only hope it is the same for any/all other suppliers, for ALL of the other products that are needed (given that they are still available as sourced from U.S. manufacturers)!!

Here is a list I found of where suppliers get their oil:
These companies import Middle Eastern oil:
Shell......................... 205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco......... 144,332,000 barrels
Exxon/Mobil...... ....... 130,082,000 barrels
Marathon/Speedway... 117,740,000 barrels
Amoco..........................62,231,000 barrels
Citgo gas is from South America, from a Dictator who hates Americans. If
you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18 BILLION!
(oil is now $90 - $100 a barrel).
Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:
Sunoco.................0 barrels
Conoco.................0 barrels
Sinclair.................0 barrels
BP/Phillips.............0 barrels
BR Hess................0 barrels
ARC0....................0 barrels

I think the guy had more problems then just you working on it (although it seems you know more about Evo's than LS1's, which isn't much mind you). Especially if he was running 30psi of boost through his radiator.

That car has more money into it than the original cost of the car.
Lets get a Z06 with $35,000 into it and see who wins.
Ricers lose no matter how you look at it. One video of a one-of-a-kind car proves nothing except some ricers have a lot of money to waste making shitty cars fast.

Save it for someone who cares. You don't have to like every damn car on the planet to be a car enthusiast.
Thats like saying you're not a sports enthusiast if you don't like every team in the league. Use some common sense and stop trying to act like you're better than anyone else because we don't like a certain type or brand of car.
A sports enthusiast might not like all SPORTS, but would at least respect all sports and not constantly talk **** about the ones they do not like, or the people who like them; enless they are immature.

a friend beat a local decently modded evo that claimed to run high 11s in his 3rd gen with an lt1/t56 camaro with the lt4 hotcam (ran 13.0 flat at Tulsa on street tires with bad wheel hop)
it was great because he was a cocky little **** all the ricers at sonic praised...his response when my friend asked him to race was "you sure you want to go that route?"
then "i'm on race gas tonight" then "i dont want to waste my time on a camaro"
finally my buddy just followed him and egged him into running from 30 twice and 50, beat him bad the first 2 times and still by 2 cars from 50

Ever heard of a blown head gasket riceboy?? Thats what happens when you push 30PSI of boost through your stock engine. And blown head gaskets tend to fail cooling system pressure tests. Not that you would understand that in the first place, though.

You obviously know absolutely nothing about even your own piece of **** car.

No, I am not whomever Chrissy is.
I am a close friend of Robdevo and joined to look at the drama on the thread (I do almost nothing at work and am bored). I had to register to post, so I did. I asked some valid questions reguarding posts made by mr. banned.
Only response I get is him calling me a troll
