Any how tos on how to get an evo that light?

 

Post like this make me feel stupid for ordering an FP red when I already had a perfectly good 9 second capable turbo that came with the car....

 

Look on the bright side. Where ever the stock turbo can take you the red will take it even further!

 

WOW, missed this thread. Thanks guys for the compliments. The car is amazing to drive. Lots of good things to come...

 

Congrats, great times. I see some people asking about the weight and it has been avoided. In another post the car was said to weigh 24xx lbs.

 

Congrats mate, awesome accomplishment with the vehicle build, tune & driving skill. Just incredible, well done Most Wanted & Mike plus the crew at AWD Motorsports.

Cheers Steve

 

A regular full weighted evo stock turbo'd cannot compete with a car like most @ 2500lbs. If you think your evo is fast at 3300+(w/driver)...imagine losing 800lbs! Feel like a rocket. Not taking away from "Most" ..this car has been built VERY well.

 

Thanks guys. Weight ? hasn't been avoided. I just haven't weighed it lately. It was in the 2500# range, but things have been added and a few things have been deleted. So I am guessing it was a wash. I still have all stock doors minus the lexan, stock steering wheel with airbag, headliner, door panels, taillights, etc. I could easily remove more weight, but it hasn't shown to be hurting us the way the car is. So I am leaving it alone for now.

 

I don't think i can do 9's it can mabey do 10's will a really nice launch

 

^ has a case of downs.

 

oh yeahhhhh..

 

So I would like to see the car break the 9's before you guys throw the red on it... you know you wont put the stock turbo on there once you run the red... who screws a fat chick after hooking up with a supermodel

 

excellent run! Any work done to the transmission?

 

Shep Ultimate Ratio Tranny is what is in the car..

Brian and Mike get a Wilson Manifolds v2.3. You just might find it will give you the edge to get you in the 9's and still be stock appearing. At the performance level that you are running at the v2.3 is the ticket. You are too close to give up on the IX turbo now.
