nice man...u know who this is right? Im the one that we tried to get that locked tune off my car at AWD when the other Chris was getting his car tuned by Crisspeed.

But yea man I need to launch it alittle better. Only owned the car a month and a week. I couldnt avoid the water box, and im scared of the clutch going out if i launch any harder. Ill just go back next week ro something and let tire pressure out and really launch the car. We shall see.

diiirk has evo 8 3rd and 4th and his 4th could go up to 130 i think but i have stock valvesprings and retainers so i kept the rev limiter at 7800 but im goin t raise it to 8200 so i can get a decent pass. diiir's computer died the night at the track so i couldnt do anything hopefully next time!
