first time at the track.

Well i finally got to the track tonight with my bone stock 05' evo.

My best run
R/T .203
60' 1.854
330' 5.490
1/8 8.546
MPH 80.86
1000' 11.199
1/4 13.448@100.26


On my last run i was on my way to a 13.2-13.3 because my 60' dropped to a 1.71 but i mis shifted into 3rd gear. i still ran a 13.8@100.12.

i do have my launch rev limiter removed.

That's not too bad, your EVO can definitly hit 13.2 with a better 60ft and I think you can get a little better mph out of your EVO too. So I believe your EVO has the potential to run a 13.2@101mph. So I would guestimate your making anywhere between 230-240WHP, who needs a dyno , joking.

Word, I havent got to track my 05 EVO, but am very glad seeing all these fast times with the stock 05, makes me glad I got an 05. Also, didn't you just get your 05 like last week. What kinda gas did you use (cant tell where you live)??

I was curious to see if you changed your launch technique from the STi to the evo8? Good times for your first outing.

I kept them pretty much the same. i blipped the throttle between 5-5.5k rpm's and when the last yellow on the tree goes off i slip the clutch very quickly and mash the gas.
