well I went to RnR a couple of days ago, the race was post poned because the SUPRA there are going to race needs more time or somthing like that, I saw there setup and I can say is that AMS and Buschur need to look out, that is one mean car.

^^ Well then I guess the Supra will probably break. RnR just needs their car to hold together and they'll get it

That's all fine and dandy but I think spending $200 on a boost controller is a waste anyways. My $100 manual boost controller works just as good. All I was saying is that any "serious" EVO is going to have a standalone engine management and anybody on this forum knows that the stock ECU is limited. This car is not an EVO that an average joe would have in their garage. I mean honestly, how many 500whp+ EVO's do you see with the stock ECU? The stock ECU doesnt do a good job at controlling injectors larger than 770cc. Im not just talking out of my ***, either. Dave Buschur has mentioned this a few times on here. Maybe the guy was new to the forums so I guess I shouldnt have been so critical but that comment just made me laugh, im sorry.

Good luck guys.

I just hope you don't get screwed by the "negotiations". They have used a lot more peer pressure in them in seasons 2 and 3.

<Rich>Oh, COME ON. The fans want to see heads up. COME ON! PLEASE?!?</Rich>

I'd love to see a Subie on there, but an Evo is almost as good

There are lots of 500whp+ cars on the stock ECU. There aren't many over 600 but they are out there. A properly setup EBC will always hold boost better than a MBC. Not sure where you got your info but EBC > MBC.

We still don't know who we are racing. It could very well be an STI.

I take no part in this, mind you.

I'm not going to bash the Subaru community but they're saying its sooo easy to build a 9 second subaru like as if they're pumping them out over night...look how long it took Gadiel to perfect his setup and break 9's. He was stuck in the 10's for awhile. Not taking anything away from Gadiel cause its a nice car, full interior, driven to the track etc but its not like there are 8 or 9 STi's running the same times as him.
