Congrat's. Your car is moving. Awesome setup.

 

Welcome to the 10sec stock engine club man

 

Thanks guys, I cant wait till I get the motor built and get even faster.

 

great set up

 

Good job!

 

Congrads.......

Ever think of running more boost?

 

Not really, when I started I deemed 500whp as the goal. I figured that the motor would last long enough at that hp level for me to get the funds together for the full motor build. To have a 10sec. stock bottom end, stock head ( minus cams ), and stock intake mani + TB 4 banger is just proof that the evo 9 is to date the best 4 cyl import ever made. 29.5 lbs is just what it took to get me there, and asking anymore right now wold just be greedy and asking for trouble. Besides the main thing holding me back now is the gearing in the tranny, cause I'm still bangin the rev limit at 8,500 like 75ft from the end of the track. Thanks again evrybody for your coments, questions and feedback. Jeff

 

Congrats man. I hope to be in the 10's one day.

 

8500 rpm....do you have you valvetrain upgraded as well? if so what brand.

 

No springs or retainers, all stock. I shift at 8k to 8,200 in all gears except 4th and wind it out to the rev limiter at 8,500 just before the traps. The only thing I did do was switch to Mobil 1 15w/ 50 oil to help in the higher revs. The car has 5100 miles on it now and the car has had about 500whp for 3,500 of those miles, and I beat the crap out of it evry time I get behind the wheel.

 

Are you running the M2's? Stock lifters?
Very nice times on a stock motor. Who's going to build your new motor?

 

Thats sound goo. You said you have roughly 500hp is that guessing or you dynod. I'll have somewhat the same setup. Did you do that on one pump. Holley walbro?

 

you did this staying in 4th with that tire set up?

 

Good stuff! I love to see guys going 10's on the stock motor.

that's crazy...so thicker oil adds protection at higher rpms? would you elaborate?
