STM finished this car up over the summer and the owner didn't need the local world knowing just how much power his "stock appearing" Evo was really making, but summer is sadly over, and the locals figured it out the hard way.

Brandon also has a full leather interior swap now, I'll have to get some new pictures. This car has all the comforts, A/C, Brembos, no cutting, no sound-deadening removal, or weight reduction and this car drives to events, runs low 10's, wins... and drives home with plenty enough street manners to cruise Sunday nights.

I envy your Evo Brandon.

Is this a BB red? I'm assuming it's not considering the build date. What do you guys think this car could achieve with a Black in it?

EDIT: Peak torque around 4500rpm and 30-40 more HP out the top? Or would the BB black spool about the same?

 

Its a journal bearing turbo. I have no idea what it will do with a black on it. I am not a fan so we rarely see them here. the red on the other hand, Is really nice. By far my favorite bolt on turbo.

Forgot to add, this car's best time is a 10.2@135

 

Beauty.... I loved that second launch!!!!! Nice driving!

Mind giving me that launch map lol , love the fire canon

 

^^ wow nuts for a full weight car.

 

Beautiful build and impressive result, congrats! Was that pull done in 4th gear? Wish we had E85 in Peru.

 

Thats in 3rd gear.

Love this car! Saw it at the shootout tearing up stock appearing class congrats.

 

He did really well at that event. I think he won his class actually. Best part was he drove the car there with his AC on and drove home.

wow, power comes in pretty early for a red on a 2.0 that graph is just beautiful ha. How come you're only revving it out to 7000 rpm? and as usual any car that you guys post is SPOTLESS!
