So your 5.7 60-130 was at 590awhp on a mustang dyno in a full weight Evo? I know a local Camaro with a 88mm turbo that ran 9.39@144mph did a 60-130 in 4.9. If he is running 4.59, that is one fast *** Evo at just 14psi and a 72mm T3 turbo...

Yes full weight I don't drag so not sure what the 1/4 mile time would be this is on a 2.4 with a 3586 we r gonna turn up the boost and go back at it it was allot hotter in Florida at that time my guess is I will get close to 5.2

Extreme tuners has some quality parts that neither you, nor buschur has built. If you could see past the twinkie in front of your face and would stop playing teeter totter on David Buschurs nut sack then you would see that Extreme tuners has produced some quality parts that will be needed to power a 4g63 faster than 7.7. It is obvious that ET hasn't built cars to go down the quarter mile. The world isn't flat Mike and Drag racing/Road racing isn't the only way to measure a pp.

Bahaha Win.

I think it's hilarious to hear AWD talking about customer service LOL

What about all those people you ripped off back in the day, when you where a honda shop........

This will get deleted by the MODS quick LOL

Also I was wondering when the backwards piston thing was gonna come up TROLLA TROLLO TRA

I do the same "ooooh, aaaah wow" when you a "master" with 20 years in the game installs pistons backwards....

Absolutely, I agree with what you said 100%. I have zero problem with being questioned. Calling me a liar I have problems with as I feel I have earned a place in this industry as someone with above stellar honesty. I'm not some "God" as you said earlier Acree, nobody is suppose to follow me blindly and I certainly don't expect it.

Why is it that other vendors have posted in spyros thread amazed at the quality of their manifolds? It very well could be smoke and mirrors, but ET manifolds are on their way to the states, and an Us car ET car is being built. Why not sit back and relax and wait to see what those parts can do? Rather than waste your time posting random pictures, making yourself look like an ***, and losing business.
Jonzie, you are missing the point completely. I have been working with and holding in my hands the Burns Stainless collectors for over 10 years. The second I saw the pictures posted I said, "That's a Burns Stainless collector, I wonder what the point of posting that is." Then I read on, no mention of Burns. I posted the pictures so people can see who I believe (and would bet big money on) is making them. Look at the third picture and the additional double slip tubing pieces. You really want to try and convince me that another random company built an identical length/welding/weld flange area and slip connectors just randomly as Burns? I'm not that stupid and this is what I am saying.........smoke a mirrors.

I have seen more and more threads complaining about AWD customer service, missing parts, there was even in town named Jimi that paid for a $5000 tilton twin carbon and they stuck it in their racecar and put the burnt out tilton from their drag car in the customer car instead. Needless to say he didnt even make it home before the discs started slipping. Of course Mike blamed it on the installer Anthony at his shop after he quit due to too much shadiness ? What?

It isn't said what dyno this was on, if it was a engine dyno, which he uses often, or a dynopack/dynojet/mustang, or any proof that it did make this power.

He is after 60-130 times and if he gets anywhere near the low 3 second times as he claims, that puts him in the 1200-1500awhp range of the TT Lambos and AMS/Switzer GTRs, especially at 3300lbs. I don't see it happening with anything short of a 285 tire if he plans on using a "street" tire. I would be interested in what it takes to get our cars to do a 4.59 60-130 in a full weight car. After all, all the other car platforms use the 60-130 times as records, why don't we? If you look up 60-130 times and on dragtimes it shows the MPH and they are 140+ in the 1/4 mile and other sites cars in that range are in the 900hp area. Of course these are different cars but it takes real power, or good power and traction, to do it. How many of you guys run 140+ at just 14psi? Then how many of you weigh 3300lbs? But then again there is no proof of the weight of his vehicle or if these times were actually accomplished or just claimed, so my argument might be bad in the first place.

The traction issue might be solved by the stand alone he runs that has traction control by boost/rpm/gear. The size of the tire/compound was never disclosed.

His gear ratios look really short and very similar to stock gearing besides the RPMs.

The Subaru running 9.2@162 when no one state side has ran that, in a Subaru, short of a drag car. That's impressive for a Subaru and faster, not quicker but the 1.76 60' can't help the cause, than every "street" Evo on here.

I just wish he would have some updates soon to either prove that he knows what he is doing or to stop this debate.

Also, who cares what he was doing 20 years ago, he was probably doing 1/4 of million dollar engines for Formula 1, Indy, WRC etc. How many shops here can say that they have 2 million dollars in CNC machines in their shop? Besides AMS and they hold a couple records of their own on multiple platforms.

To end this rant, all this is about is a new guy with a lot of claimed experience in other platforms and tons and tons of money. 99% of his builds are not for the general public, who would run 13:1 compression on 91-93 octane? He is a claiming a lot with little proof and doesn't care to give proof to everyone about it, dynos have been proven to be manipulated for years, ask DG Motors or TTP about it. If his statements are true about his background and everything, he is probably in an income level that we all wish we were at. How many people can say they BUILT an engine/ECM for a Formula 1, Indy, WRC? He has people on here with years of experience in other fields, engineers and such, impressed with his parts, technical talk and knowledge. Again, there is just way too much left off that everyone can argue about and there is no proof of anything, all claims. Until there is proof, there is a reason to be skeptical and question his motives. He also isn't interested in making tons of money off of people or his site would be functional, not that most of us could afford a billet block or titanium valves, crank or cams. I will stick to my Buschur Racing parts for proven performance.

jasn21,

870 hp..........did you really-really watch the video? Did you see the sand/dirt all over the roads? Do you think that is good for traction? Did you notice the complete LACK of wheel spin, not once at any point is there any wheel spin at all...

Subaru, IDRC Street Class cars on radials have gone in the 8's actually. Both cars from Easy Street Ali Afshar, YEARS ago.

I'm glad you will stick with our parts, I appreciate that

Also, please keep in mind, everyone, that he is using KM's not MPH. Watch the video. So that 100-200 km run that took 4.59 seconds is actually a 60.93 mph to 121.86 mph run. The 60-100 km run is 36.56 mph to 60.93 mph 1.4 seconds.

Changing to MPH takes some of the aww out of it. Comparing the MPH to RPM really takes it out for me because it doesn't add up. Also put the bad *** (yes, giving credit on this) shifting and trans into the equation because short of a dog box those shifts aren't being made like that typically on an EVO.

Also, let me add this little tidbit. My EVO has run from 0-128 mph in 5.85 seconds, no dog box. Yes, slicks were required to do so because a car making that much power is not hooking up on a street tire, especially not on a dirty road.
