No progress, just his graph and thoughts so far

I know someone who ran 13.5 in his evo this weekend. Serious, and no BS
Can you give any details on the runs? Trap speed, etc?

Exactly, so why post on a public forum and quote incorrect figures (IMO), when others with similar resources are doing the same amount of work if not more and yielding way more power. A lot of people are visiting this site as we type all this, some post, most will not.

99.8mph? I guess R&T had a slippery track for tire spin or not great at launching? With that trap speed it shows that we indeed have 271hp on the spot. I had high hoped with thier 101.5mph. If 103+mph then we're close to JDM power level

I can't give that information out, but it was on pump gas and the MPH was 99.8.

There is no need to lie, and Batman is not lying. Its not my car or batmans. I can prove myself anytime if you like. Its not my car (EVO) to give more information is what i am trying to say, so me saying the ET and MPH is already waaaay to much information. Since he just bought the car, he will probably post here soon.

People have been making bit power with the 4g63 for YEARS now. The EVO is in essence a 16g powered DSM with a decent FMIC. 16gs can make big power even on pump gas and this has been proven time and again. Even if the EVO did dyno low at Vishnu’s shop 1. It isn’t very conclusive and 2. Its nothing that a SAFC and a boost controller cant fix.

My guess is that you will see people making HUGE numbers in the EVO right out of the box. Evos wont have anywhere near the learning curve that the WRX kids had. The paths to big power are already well laid out. There is no need to reinvent the wheel.

Well said! Mitsu/DSM guys have been doing this since 1990.

yea damn, i can't beleive there is so much BS going on this board right now. Shiv is a great guy who offers great products at reasonable prices, he has already said with a lil bit of tuning he has gained 30 hp. big deal if the evo only has 20 more whp than the wrx. it is still going to be faster stock to stock, it is still a great car, and can still be modded to make huge power. stop comparing to other cars, this is getting ridiculous, just be happy you got a new evo and go have fun driving in it.
