I don't know when it comes to the Evo 9 turbo. As for the Evo 8 turbo, Curt Brown ran a 10 second 1/4 mile, but that's with every single possible mod under the sun and his car is gutted.

Here's a link.http://cbevo.com/

The car is always running 11.5s so the car is consistent

great results,


but is it considered a "Stock evo 8 turbo" if you take the stock turbo off and put a bigger one on?

The comment saying "Puerto Rico does it better" comes from an old campaign to promote tourism in PR, in which they were trying to imply that Puerto Rico "does it better" when it comes to the beaches and the surroundings...

He's not implying that he's better than you all!! At least is it not meant to be read that way... I think...
