Yes, some are only trapping 125 on EvoRed turbos and meth.

Nice work Chris. We are proud of your dedication and choice to stick it out another trip to the strip to achieve your goals.

Will see you soon on your EvoRed venture. This way you'll have enough power to put your 32lb seat back in and still reach 125mph.

I forsee about 130mph on the stock block.

Thanks again for all your support. This goal was most definitely a team effort.

The Devo driveshaft is 14.5LBS lighter then stock and I believe 12.5LBS of that is rotational mass.


Devo Tuning is no longer in bussiness. I think Adam closed the doors




Congrats that is awesome you hit 10 sec

Sorry to say I'm not surprised. The quality of the driveshaft is great but the customer service I blew up his phone calling constantly just to place my order for the driveshaft. Oh well.

Great times, as far as the driveshaft you can source the same one through AMS now.

Once you start modifying your Evo it is no longer FULL WEIGHT FROM THE FACTORY. Aftermarket o2 housings, exhausts, etc... all weigh less then the factory parts. So even your own Evo is not FULL WEIGHT.

As for your comment about the using meth just to cool your cylinders I suggest you stop wasting your money on it then and just use water injection. If you are not using methanol for higher octane tuning then you are not using it correctly.

As for how many Evo's TTP has tune on the red trapping over 125mph, there will definitely be one more by mid February.
