I have an EVO MR with HKS Hi-Power exhaust and HKS BOV and about to get a 3" JIC downpipe and this kid i was talkin to was like u better be careful because since you have a catback exhuast and downpipe and BOV you cant push ur car because u might blow ur clutch or ur internals...i was liek are u serious, thats bullcrap??? what is this guy talking about??? thats bogus what he is saying, do u guys agree?

 

LOL aslong as you arent doing insane launches I dont see how anything he is saying is true..well clutch might wear a tad faster because of the added power( not much power) but the stock clutch is s*it anyway. Never heard anything about blowing internals, 4g63t engines are strong and proven.

 

internals, wtf is that guy smoking... clutch, he's right, if you drive like an *** and try to burn out all the time and launch like crazy and stuff... grandma it (the clutch) and you can be like me up at 20k miles with track days on the car and the stock drivetrain and clutch

 

So if I dont launch i will be fine right???? but i can still push my car hard but wihtout launching??

 

Is that BOV any good??? Hows it sound???

 

Lesson I (for Newbies)

1. If you want reliable, sound information regarding your EVO, neither consult nor listen to 'kids'.

 

stock internals are good for 600 at the crank

 

I certainly hope that statement is correct...

 

Just curious but have this been proven and for how long will the motor last? Are you on stock head studs with the mods you have?

thnks

 

well that was in an artile this month in superstreet.. about the 4G's and how over the years how much stronger they have gotten.. they stated that the new 4G's can handle 600 crank

 

do u guys agree?-----NO I don't agree.

If you drop the clutch above 5k (300+hp) many times you may risk breaking something or burning your clutch out. Damn use you head with your car and it will last a long time. I have 44k on the stock clutch, mods r in my sig.

Stock internals good to 600hp? I question this, Maybe 500. I don't think the valves or retainers would hold up thus trashing your motor.

It may hold 600 crank but for how long?

 

well lets see there are guys putting down high 400's so thas pretty damn close to 600 crank.. on stock internals...
