get a flash fool...your car is probably running like peanuts...if anything get a mail in...don't waste your time trying to break records on a ecu thats probably correcting the hell out of itself rendering your car ...average.
60's are appauling...u gotta practice launching on back roads 1st ...harder to learn at track...especially when u have a set amount of time to get your rpms up focus and not dump and bog your launch...practice practice practice...let us know when you get tuned.

you are not exaggerating, you might have the slowest evo in the whole southeast. But with a GOOD driver, based on these runs you should be trapping 106-107. Don't expect too much more without cams. You should try to let someone else drive the car, just a pass or 2 to see what the car can do. Even with that 60ft, you should be trapping 105, stop granny shiftin'.this might help- http://www.10w40.com/individual/100186.asp

Granny shifting is when you take a slight pause in neutral between gears when shifting. So instead of going smoothly from 2nd to 3rd, you pull out of 2nd, stop for a moment in neutral along the way, then go into 3rd, and let the clutch out again. Very slow.
