I wouldnt do that.. Keeping the car legal for sanctioned street classes is more fun IMO..

Yeah i did the 45r but did the Tial housing 1.00 and the 42r compressor housing. The compressor housing was machined to fit the 45r wheel.

I just find it odd that a tuner would ever bother with a "glory" pull just to put up a number, and it seemed stranger to me to post about it. Just my opinon. I appreciate your replies back to me.

Regarding my track records and videos, if this is how you judge the merit of peoples feedback, I don't think you are much of an Evo enthusiast.

24" tire would make for a 9500-9800 rpm trap at about 700+ whp. What tire are you running now?

I think if Al wanted to get into more detail on his car he'd do it himself ifarted........Don't spread rumors about what he has or doesn't have as you have no clue what he is running.

I don't get people..........I really don't.

Nice job on the power Al. Also for those of you reading, I did speak with Al today and I wasn't aware that he had actually taken the SMC kit completely off the car, so it was 100% pump gas.
