Turbo Ralliart Part Ii
believe he's went to 9.1:1 pistons and he's had a clutch made. With that setup he can do 20psi. Especially if he's running race gas.
TECH... are you running race gas... if not what octane fuel you running down there in PR? Did you also upgrade your headstuds? I know the stock ones are kind of small for that much boost. The stock gasket is great though, are you still using that? Are you getting the Limited Slip from RRM?

good work tho

TECH your car is awsome man im very jelious, im droolin gover your ride. But this questions keeps being asked. Since you are a talented tuner obviously are you going to make some sort of kit for the public to purchase from you? Well keep up the good work cant wait to see the track numbers.

What the f*ck does that post have to do with anything?!? Sounds like a teenager wanting to be part of something but without a clue to what is being discussed... I think my 4 years old has more articulated speech!

IS300's are fun cars and all but the thrill is this car cost 18k and yours probably close to 35-40k new.. so for a 18k car to have 400+ hp is pretty damn impressive in my book...especially being that you are in a 6 cylinder and ours a 4.

hahahahaha this is hilarious everyone is bustin on that kid haha. Personaly i think your story is total load of Bull**** but yeah. Does sound like a teenager wanting to beef up a race story that never happened
Now, imagine if the guy is in fact an adult driving a riced-up IS300 and was in fact implicated in a race where one car had an accident... and this is his first post and just happens to looks like a teenager wanting to beef up a race story that never happenned. How would that be for a pathetic post... 
Anyway, back to the topic at hand... we still want to know if this kit will be sold in North-America one day?!?!

that dude is just mixing some story, there was an sti that crashed a few weeks ago, real one, DUI i think, wasnt there but heard some guy telling about it, reliable source
wouldnt it be hard to race an Evo in Canada anyways?? Correct me if I am wrong, but they arent available in CANADA and if someone DID manage to get his/her hands on one, do we all think they would be dumb enough to do what this guy said he did. And one more thing, IF this Evo did have a turbo upgrade, than it probably had more than that also, and with just a few toys, your fake *** Twin Turbo charged IS300 STILL wont beat an AWD Evo! OK, off topic, back to TECH's RA!! When are u planning on track testing it? Before the magazine article?
