send a PM to Rraulston. He was so fed up of the GT35 that he went back to stock turbo and currently is running even faster with stock turbo. Definately worth listening to his side of the history

Good luck!!

Running good ET's is all driver in a EVO or just about manual car...auto's are a different story. I will bet $500 that if you get the might hood up from AMS and go to the track and YOU drive you will not run 10's. You better have 5K or so saved up for a TC and front diff while your at it because they will break....it's not a if it's a when.

Chris's EVO ran a 7.30@101mph best pass at 30lbs of boost. Granted it was his first time at the track and the 2 step was maxed at 4800rpm's, but a 7.30 is good for 11.40's. His car is built at much as you can build it for the most part.

It's all driver Curt Brown 10.9@124mph great example.

The 35r is a bit laggy on a 2.0.
Its better with the strokers. Look at all the videos of chris evo. Its even a tad laggy on a 2.3. All the other cars get the jump, Chris plays catch-up.

I second that bump, stupid rumors need to be squashed, I would hate to see people always coming up to this guy and harrassing him to race.

Yea I will have to 3rd that bump and the funny thing is that the guy on this thread that said that came to us and wanted to run and not 1 person I have ran has been initiated by me yet I'm calling out the world or something LOL, also not to mention all the crap I could be talking about that whole night (including about the person on this thread that was talking trash) and have not said word 1, (but it is hard to contain myself sometimes LOL) yet once again I am this a-hole that is talking trash all over the internet and to the guy who posted this thread get used to alot of haters because that will be the biggest drivability issue that you will have.

If that's you..sorry to hear about your turbo...but at leaste it wasn't something wrong with the motor!

That was me, and yeah the feeling is the same here but I just lost it in 2nd. Unfortunately I won't be out this weekend since I still haven't got the turbo back from PTE. I wasn't really worried that it was the bottom end, I was thinking it was something in the head that let loose since I am still on the stock springs and retainers and with the new setup I was bumping off the 8500rpm limit. But gladly enough it was just the 6 hour old turbo.

When you guys come back into town let me know or if I happen to be up your way I will give you a buzz to meet up.

The 35r is an awesome turbo, but a bit laggy around town, but very mean on the highway
