Really, I don't know what to say. I'm quite speechless. Emery really surprised me with all this and the car came together in just a few days right down to the polished motor mounts being anodized purple same-day! Cory and Austin were going nuts welding and fabricating the dump tube, manifold, downpipe. Big thanks to CBRD for the overnighted radiator (which is gorgeous).

Before this 35r set-up, it ran a 11.3@123.60 (386 HP / 413 TQ) on the stock turbo (4th fastest on the list) still retaining the leather, A/C and navigation. This car is still my daily driver so Emery at STM wanted to make sure this Evo could do it all!

The car is strong, solid, quiet at idle and roars wot! Another stock motor out of STM making 450+. He says he could go higher, but just touching 27 psi... I have to drive to Ohio in a few days with a car load of girls... watch out!

I'll let the pictures do the rest of the talking.


...oh... and this motor has 138,000 and climbing!!

awesome congrats! purple looks hawt! 138,000!!!! thats amazing


EDIT: stock ECU or AEM?

 

thats a very pretty engine bay!

make sure you put a heatshield on the exhaust cam angle sensor

 

Your car, Its Hawt!
Very nice numbers! So is their a minimum amount of power your car needs to be on the stm team? lol

 

AEM series two. This car started out as a daily driver then We just kinda turned it into a test mule. In fact, It may have been the first Evo 8 series two box tuned in the US. The car just takes it and keeps going. At this point we are keeping the power where it is until after the shootout. Once we get back, a Buschur motor might find its way into the car then we can turn the up the wick and send her down the track.

lol, I wish they were km! We haven't had it a year yet and bought it with 116,000. Yeah.
