Big Al's Car
 

:mitsu: For those of us looking to follow in Al's foot steps and get to 500+ HP can you tell us what mods you have? Also for those of us working towards a 10 to 11 second Evo daily driver what upgrade paths would be best and most cost effective?

possible ?
 

Is there really any such thing as a 10 second daily driver? I played this game years back and always ended up with a big pain in my ass... hehe

Re: Big Al's Car
 

Pretty easy really its just takes $$,$$$.$$+ 10 second cars are expensive and there is no cost effectiveness to it. Buschur and Vishnu can get you into the 11s for $,$$$.$$. And N2O even cheeper.

good point, if you throw enough $$ at anything, you can make it work

ok I am telling everyone... and I know some of you have said it already... wait till all the tracks open back up. a lot of companies have upgrades that they havent been able to test since the tracks are closed. I have no doubt what so ever that we will see a 10 second evo when all the tracks open up.

as for your upgrade path I woul just hold for a little bit. wait and see what all the companies are doing with their cars. If you want to start I think you can go with the generic stuff you will always need such as turboback, intercooler, hard pipes, clutch, and even Engine management. but on the EM and Clutch make sure you have an idea of where you are going and that your choices have all the capabilities to get you there.(obviously do not buy an exedy single plate if you want a 10 second evo) as MP5 said buschur can get you deep into the 11's (with a stock turbo) with some of the stuff thats coming out and some tuning and a DRIVER I dont think 10's will be that far off.

10 seconds for under $10k, daily driver - seems like a fun challenge. feasible?

crazy ass! I think you need to take the daily driver part out

I don't know why you posted this on the Dynoflash forum. But there are alot of vendors (including Al) who could help you build a 10 second vehicle. Keep in mind, its going to take luck and finesse to keep the stock drivetrain intact. To be more reliable, you need to spend more money. To run a 10 your going to need a rollcage also. So call you local DSM shop and spec things out.

Al's Upgrades
 

If you look at the thread topic I was tring to find out what upgrades the Al has on his car (he runs in the 11's)......I have his fireball 2 on my can and wanted to see what other hard ware I would need... I also know that I will need a roll cage.... And that it will take a fair amount of $ but how much really? I think some where around 5 to 10 K is what I am looking at. And as for it being a daily driver you can do that by truning down the boost when your on the street.

You know what the main thing to understand is...
1. Having a FAST car on demand
2. Having a car that can be switched into FAST DRAG car, and then switched into everday car in matter of seconds is really important!!!

Still waiting for Al to give us that list of mods......

I will post up a list of mods soon - iyts a lot of typing !
