Shell 93 octane.

Shell is a good fuel. Has Ethanol and Extra Nitrogen that Shells puts in it. And the fuel has very good cleaning additives.

My favorite brand of fuel.

Thanks for the opportunity to work with you Manie. I hope this new setup brings you peace of mind everytime you start your car. If you need anything. You know how to reach us.

But the good news is that it is back on road again .

Some parts have been eliminated, changed, modified, etc. I think overall, the car has been improved.

A build motor is nice, but that only includes rods and pistons and machine work.

This time around, I did more things to the Evo than at any time before now.

So it is runing very good as a result.

Here are many pictures of the detail work that went into it, to make sure everything runs well. And some pictures of the car as it is now.


In Cabin Look. New addition of Oil Gauge


Re-doing some work on the inside and out


Paint Job of Bumper and Hood by Jeff and his Crew at The Recovery Room












Empty Engine Bay




The 80mm Red




Stock Block from TTP


Same Stock Block Bottom


Ported and Polished Intake Manifold, 950cc TTP Injectors


Ported Manifold Entry Port to near 70 mm


Ported and Polished Exhaust Manifold


ACT Clutch, Light Flywheel, and New Disk to handle tq.


Head Intake Side Ported and Polished. SI Stainless Steel Valves, Nitride Coated SBR


Exhaust Head Side, Ported and Polished. Supertec Dual Springs and Titanium Retainers


Turbo Exhaust Side, Ported and Polished on both, top and side.


Turbo Outlet side, Ported, Polished. Compare size of a stock bore turbo outlet Port


Scott changing my Timing Gears to a Higher Level


409 whp and 390 tq TTP Dyno May 2010


The entry into the Dyno at TTP, rain or shine


At TTP Dyno for a tune

Some other changes: Now using a single Walbro Hi Flow Pump, a thick Cossworth Head Gasket, New 950cc Injectors,
Transmission re-Done and Tranfer Case re-done by Pollo.

New ECU Tune by TTP Engineering for Pump Gas, now using Competition 272 Cams, Etc.

There is zero Lag on this set-up, and the boost does not drop much at all.
Over all, I am very happy with everything.

Here are 2 Dyno videos of the car:

That is one hogged out turbo outlet if I've ever seen one.


I didn't see you mention it, but why were your door panels removed?

That's what we're thinking. Manie had a rough year and we are glad he is enjoying his "up-time" daily driving a reliable car again.

I say enjoy it for a while and in due time, he can turn up the wick.

Thank you very much Scott.

I am really happy with the car and your ECU tune .

You did a fantastic job.

I received great personal service, and I am glad to have you as a friend and a Shop I can go to and feel right at home.

Veronica, the Cat and Sugar the Lab are also great to be around with .

BlueEvo61106, JJsEvo8, Lancerboy89,



Thank you very much guys, .

PS, Scott, I had Jeff paint the door handles of the car. So I had to tear down the interior door covers to take them off, and believe me, it was a pain and time consuming deal.

I much rather assemble the engine and work on the rest of the stuff than do this door handles, lol.

Feels like we're long lost brothers. I can remember us both putting the FP Green on around the same time, and then the Red around the same time. My car is a Silver SSL car as well lol. Glad to see you're still in the Evo game! Good luck with your car!

It's also good to see TTP back again and producing some good results!
