Norris Designs evo 7 = 608hp!

If you haven't already, go to your local store and grab the July edition of Sports Compact Car. There is a bad *** Norris Designs evo 7 with an HKS GT 3240 turbo and much more ... car is supposedly worth $110,000.00 and does 0-60 in 2.9 tics on race gas.

There is also a very cool faceoff between Vishnu's WRX, other tuners' WRX vs. the STI! Very nice toilet reading material people.

Sorry no pics ...

Hasn't Norris Designs been making and tuning Evos for a decade now? If only they would open a shop here in the US. Them and the guys from G-Force in Aomori Japan. I've seen a few of their cars first hand and couldn't believe how fast they were and still passed the vehicle inspection (JCI) there.

Yea I noticed that too ... then again, aren't the Altezzas more expensive? If so, that may be why ... they wanted to jack the value up as much as possible

I'm curious about their custom turbo setups. According to the article, they're interested in penetrating the US aftermarket so I might shoot them an e-mail when I'm ready to go bigger.

If I'm not mistaken Simon Norris is only in his early twenties, so if he was into tuning a decade ago he must've started in his early teens?

I must be thinking of the entire decade range of Evos then. They used to make parts for the GTI-R Pulsar I owned.

I say we should all send them an E-mail in order to show them how interested we are..

Good idea.

I'll send one out later with a link to this site/thread.

I wonder if the fact that their Evos are right-hand drive will effect the fitment/install of their headers/turbos.

The car makes an estimated 771 bhp (estimated from the power at the wheels) at 2.5 bars boost and it's about as fast as a McLaren F1 ... in a straight line

The above is with only 1.55 bars boost, it has another 2 programs, one with 2.1 bars and 1 with 2.5 bars (relative!) boost pressure and then does 2.85 or 2.9 seconds to 60 and God knows what sort of other unreal times.
