DSport Issue 52: April 2007 - How does that evo get in there?

Ok some question for every one, how does this evo on page65 get in there?

Does he get in for his 600$ harness, and Cracked Lip. i dont understand it. and then look at the engine bay it looks like mix match. just not flowing with me.

But then again i dont have much room to talk since my car is semi gutted. but my car is wicked power on a DD and i hold some records.

ahh maybe you guys can fill me in with whats up with this.

Link to PDF for the write up in the mag
SCAN PDF B&W

hey whats up man, i think dsport needs to get more hard core people in there, i mean dont get me wrong he has some what nice stuff in the evo but its just nothing spieical.286hp lol

its just that they titled it wrong they said back to basics: optimizing performance in a stock turbo evo.

lol dont get me wrong but 286hp is not doing **** lol

I don't think I've seen it. The last two previous issues had some simple Evo's as well if I remember correctly. Both were GT35 powered but seemed less like show cars and more like daily drivers.

Personally, I like the fact that they are putting cars that actually get tracked - or at least driven - in car magazines besides some tired 15-year-old CRX or an Integra with a turbo and the wastegate set at 7 PSI. Less bling is always good, and I absolutely can't stand the promotional cars. You know, the ones that are rolling billboards and the only reason they are in the magazine is because the shop that built them probably called and said "Hi, how much would it cost to buy a 4 page advertisement in your magazine? Oh, and we want it to look like an article covering our car, not an actual advertisement."

for some people its good enough the factory performance. What is wrong with that? I didn't see the article,so i'm talking about general. I don't think you should make jokes about guys who runs stock or little mod's. Because the end of the day, they all have Evo's.
