The Weight and performance numbers are from the owner direct in Denmark. This is what he told me. He is a pretty smart guy and has been great to work with so I would assume all of this is correct.

I will talk to him today and try to get him to come on here and talk a little bit about his car for you

As per popular demand would you elaborate what is the word on those brakes? It is inversally logical to mod a car to such power and under mod the brakes.

Pretty sure the AMS drag car is one of the most powerful EVOs in the world, and it has smaller brakes than 90% of the EVOs out there. . .

If you strip the car for every thing and i mean EVERY THING you can get it down there, but only if it is a "EU" EVO IX RS.....

considering that this motor has a 9K rpm limit?

Doesn't seem suited to a 42R...Am I missing something here?

I have full boost at 5400 rpm and no lag between gearshift. the engine is 10-1

very very nice job indeed guys BUT i honestly dont believe the weight of that car in a million years to put it bluntly !!!

he has no carbon doors very very little metal taken out of the inside of that shell and many other areas from what i can see - i honestly cant believe that weight - i have an evo 7rs down to 1093kgwith no fuel fully fia caged but we have gone a lot lot further than that one to get the weight down .

Tell that to almost everybody running 9's..... People sacrifice being able to turn and stop to go fast in a straight line sadly.
