Great job guys!

This car reminds me of another PR red evo that was featured in a mag a couple years back (at least the twin bov and n20 set-up)

I saw that run in person and it was very impresive, they have pics of the build from start to finish, which is very impresive to considering that not most shop/ tunners from PR show their stuff!

True...

Most of PR Tuners don't even open their hoods at the race track, I made the build thread in GRS where it shows pictures of all the parts installed on the car. This is the first time Steven builds and Evo, He is also testing the Micro Tech ECU that there was a myth that it dosen't works on Evo's and the driver never drove a AWD car before. The car was dynoed on Friday 883 awhp on a dynojet on a very conservative tune and his first run ever was on saturday 9.80 lifting the throttle in 4th gear and the second run in sunday 9.31 and bogged the launch.

In that video you can see the left front fender liner and the alternator belt flying off the car the instant before he released the chute

i was wondering what that was as i'm sure others were too

Thought i also saw something similar on the silver pr evo that just went 8's the other day......wonder if that too was a fenderliner or undertray piece

Yes i dont remember if it was Chuco 8 sec Evo or Anibal 9.52 stock turbo app Evo they are both gray cars and improved their times last couple of weeks at the same race track. There should be 2 left front fenderliner's somewhere in Salinas Speedway grounds

It would have been very nice if chucos cars was there for the SSS3. I went on Sunday and could not see Proccos Evo in action. I think it blew a head gasket in the event.

Titan Mototsports Supra steal the show.
