Wow.Thats alot of power on the stock turbo. I would be a little concerned personally of rod/rod bolt strength at such high torque/low rpm. Its not the torque capacity of the stock rods its the way it comes in that can break stuff. Alot of people make a ton of power on the stock block but the torque is later in the powerband.
Hopefully on the drag strip it won't matter . Those are some good trap speeds!

Sorry for the newb question but what is recommended to get more torque out of these cars? Is it stronger internals or do you need a stronger aftermarket block?
I love me some Evo IX. That's what I'm hoping to pick up. Your car is really nice!
