9.29 @ 152 mph - 64/66 Turbocharger- Street Car

This is Roman's Evo 8, we put the car together for him right before the DSM/Evo Shootout this past August, but we had issues with the clutch while we were in Ohio. I never made a post in the drag racing section about this build, and I thought you guys would like to see our results.

Before taking the car to the Shootout, we brought Roman's car out to a local track to dial the car in. We only made it to the track once before Shootout on this setup. Since the Shootout, Roman took the car apart and has decided that he wants to go bigger and faster. I think hes looking at the PTE 7175 for 2013!!

LOL, don't blame it on me!!

As far as the motor goes, we are leaving it alone and will be running the same motor from the year prior.

1/2 filled means that the block was filled with a cement like mixture to strengthen the cylinder walls. Also curious if this is ran on the street. I've never really researched filled blocks. Are they able to operate for long periods of time?

We have run half filled blocks on the street for years. You just need a good radiator and fan. A fully filled block would probably be a problem but not a half fill if done right.

The trick is not to fill it too much. We still use the factory water pump and you're only filling a couple of inches at the very bottom of the block. If done right, you can drive the car on the street without any issues. If you guys are interested in this service, shoot us a PM and we would be happy to help.
