Thanks guys...

So this "big body" evo responds well to mods. We found the correct wheel/tire combo to work well with the stock gearset. Trapping 129-131 consistently at 28psi means that phase 1 of the package is complete.

We will now move forward to "phase 2", where a gear/tire change and more boost will produce 140mph+ traps with-out using 5th gear. A little better 60ft and 9's should be achievable.

This is the same combination that we've been producing for evo x's one after another. This car made 580 or so on our dynodynamics and is still on a journal bearing 6262.

Hopefully more guys from our camp will take a swing at the track, this is the combination that we move most of our power-hungry customers towards. These cars feel the way mitsubishi should have produced them in the first place.

Nice work. You guys were parked across from our my shop assist booth at the shoot out and we watched several of your passes. Definitely the fastest X out there!
