If I am not mistaken they would look exactly the same. The only difference is the wheel on the cold side. The inside of the cold side housing is also machined a bit to allow the wheel to fit. But as fas as the housings go, they are the same as stock.Originally Posted by smp3000
I seriously can't wait to start, it will take a while, but it'll be done right. Does anyone have any pics of the Green next to a stocker? I'd love to see the size difference.

Has Curt really ground off the excess of bolts on the car? I know that it saves a surprising amount of weight but its a ton of work.Originally Posted by 9sec9
I could be wrong, but it's my understanding that it was NOT full interior. I think most of the EVO community understands the difference between the term 'race prepped' and stock appearing. I would say when someone takes the time to begin cutting all bolts on the car that extend beyond the nuts and all interior pieces are removed and a normal stock car weighing 3200+ now weighs 2800 lbs or less and the engine is built (not stock) and it's running an AEM with C16 and slicks, it could be considered race prepped as opposed to stock. I don't think Curt would even question that fact, as a matter of fact, I'm sure of it. The only thing he would point out is the fact that he didn't fully take the time to tune the 20G-LT setup to it's maximum potential on his car. Those were his words when I spoke with him.

Sorry dudical26, I didn't realize that OKIX had run a 127.98 during the shootout. I thought that the et/mph needed to be during the same run. Here's the list of the runs. Top row is the 127.98. It won't change position any, but just needed to be corrected. Thanks

It was Firday night races, so no time slips. They were just anouncing the times. Originally Posted by dudical26

That was my second time ever running at the drag strip, and am still learning. Also everyone says add a full second to you state side time and that is what you'll run here, because of the temp and track conditions. So I am thinking I did not do too bad.
Next time I'll put on my R-compounds and lower the PSI. I hope to break into the 11's.
