if anyone is intersted in watching the video of me racing it on youtube type in:

Evo ix "5LEEPER" vs Porsche Turbo S

cant post due to Evom Rules and we did another pull from a lower mph but my friend did not vid tape it. I beat it by a 1 car about that race then we Video Taped the Porsche MPH choice not mine in the vid shown in that youtube vid

 

heres the graph i wanted to share before i finished the tune off.



the car was falling on its face at higher rpm due to the stock cams.. its clear as day in this graph. after we cranked the boost up the car semi gained its power back, but still no where near its true capabilities with a proper set of cams under the hood.

dont expect the cam swap anytime soon, Steve is going to enjoy his car as is. if you guys want to see a kelford 272 vs gsc s3 shootout i have one of Scott's car

and also doing one on my car very soon!

 

Nice results Tom. I can only imagine how nutty my car would be at 32psi on the top end. Only seeing 26psi now.

 

any chance of throwing a adjustable cam gear on the exhaust cam?

on my evo8, stock cams @ -4/-4 didnt give up much down low, but just carried the power out another 800 rpm!

since he has the mivec, he will get back most of what would be lost down low.

if he is doing the mechanical work, it should be ~60-75 minutes to swap the gear out. Thats from hood up - hood down!

I can send him a spare adjustable gear if he wants to just to test!

 

Hi Aby, that's not something he can do really. I did all the mechanical work on his evo over the winter and partial spring. i basically built the car from ground up.

Its using the stock cam gears right now with the stock kevlar 9 belt then i believe the intake/exhaust are both a half tooth retard.

Im not exactly sure when he wants to do the gsc s3 install, but ill probably install the cams for him and maybe at that time we can test things.

 

the GSC S3's will be installed late fall early winter. i want in enjoy the car how it is and hope the tran's holds up threw theses events im doing coming up.

and the only people that touch my car are you and me

 

you helped build it with me, so you can say you built it as well. although i may of been the teacher, you still assisted.

trans should be ok i think hopefully. the torque isnt all that high, the timing isnt all that high downlow.. the car is conservative.

 

Yeah the evo trannys are pretty beefy from the factory he should be ok. He has a real nice tq curve so it should be ok.

 

Sick video

 

thanks!

 

Awesome results! Get that beast over to Etown so we can see some 1/4 fun.

 

128+ for this car or ill be dissapointed. it already beat that porsche that traps 130.

heres a cool pic he took of his car.

 

this car went 127mph. whats even more impressive is we got almost 300MPG on e85 on the way back i will share pics of the gas gauges progress.. i didn't even know that kind of MPG was even possible on e85. i will also show the slips and video footage also. i will share tomorrow.

 

So are you dissapointed or impress ?

 

impressed because his crappy 5 spd 9 gear box made him go into 5th gear every time just to pass..

plus the last pass he did went 11.22 @ 121 missing 5th gear like 4 times.. so its a 10 second car with a perfect pass. we will make it run a 10 at a closer local track to us on my slicks. he was on $70 tires.

i am gonna get the videos together and pictures now of the slip and the gas gauge..

id like to know how he got 300MPG on e85 though when my personal car was only getting 180-200MPG..

is it the stock cams doing it or what? that is just ridiculous MPG for e85.

car is cruising with o2 sensor feedback, its not open loop either.. so im baffled.

plus we drove 7-8 hrs to the event raced, then drove back 100% true street car.. nothing broke, and everything went great. he even lasted till 4th in ESA.

I got to meet alot of very cool evom guys that i never met before.. i had a complete blast there.. by far the best event ive ever attended to date automobile wise.. this years shootout was the best one yet.
