Tiny turbo ? HKS 3037 ... FYI that is bigger then we are running ...



Our evo has stock interior, stock radio , rear seats, drivers seat... Stock carpet.. HID headlights , brakes work , horn works blinkers ect. Didnt you borrow carpet from ESX's car last weekend to make your car legal ? How ridiculous is not running a/c ? Do we need that while we're waiting to run the car ?? or to cool jeff off in the lanes ?



Dont break anything ...Al c'mon .. lets be fair here. Your on your 3rd motor , dropped valves, bent wrist pins, numerous rod bearings... The list is endless. Dont come off like your car is perfect and never breaks....

You did not invent the wheel, we knew when we built the car that it wouldnt take us 2 seasons to run 10's. We did it on our first pass, no tach and conservative. I think we've accomplished alot. I am scanning the timeslips for all the na-sayers .. See you next weekend al

That TT car has a higher trap in the 1/8 than I'm running in the 1/4 mile!!

How about moving this thread to drag....wouldn't that make more sense? I'd like to see some pics of the actual car posted up too!

What's the estimated on $$ in mods? An actual list of mods?? Is this street legal??

Congratulations TurboTrix for being the first USDM evo into the 10s! I'm sure that time is going to come down a lot too. For all the people who haven't seen the TurboTrix drag car, look at the evoM homepage. There is a link for the TurboTrix event at Englishtown from a few weekends ago with tons of pics of the car. You can see the water-air intercooler, drag tranny, huge slicks, etc. in the pics.

The tranny is actually stock but Keith put a LSD in our transfer case to help it hook a bit better. We're running Hoosier Quick Time tires which are actually DOT legal but I wouldn't trust them for daily driving. I also have a set of Toyo RA1s that we might try. A set of real slicks might be an option in the future but these are fine for now.

Any chance you'll be producing this LSD for sale on our cars?

I'm saving my pennies for a clutch install, upgraded T-Case... and maybe LSD front diff at Turbo trix =P
