....Not trying to cause a fight, i'm just getting frustrated with people's ignorace.

Like I said in that thread, if someone post a 500whp Supra, their gettin in freakin line to suck the guy off. Of course for an evo it's impossible to make that kinda power, therefore it MUST be BS.

I'm sure AMS has seen this kind of doubt from the otherside before. =/

the difference there is that 500 hp supras are all over the place!

They weren't in 94.. By 99 Everyone was careful around a Supra.. What might it have.. I suspect Evos are going to become know for their all to common 375 awhp - 450awhp daily drivers over the next 2 years or so..

Found out the AEM EMS can do the dual injectors...it can fire one set than another as it has the ability to time up to 10 (I think that was the number) injectors independently. Thanks to Chuntington on the H2O injection info...that's useful as the water injector would be much easier to operate before the rest of the Christmas tree...you often have some really good info.

i had a supra with 548whp before, there are tons of them making over 700whp+,
i did sell it for my evo 8, because i need a daily drive instead of one sitting on the garage for summer only, i am living in midwest, snow and rain is not fun for supra.
the truth is that the supra is so easy to get more hp, but for daily drive and city/highway or street racing, evo is more fun, supra is fun on drag racing.

also, you can't really tell if they make how much hp by looking the video, AMS spent lots of time to develop performance parts for evo, USDM evo only a year's old, already break over 550whp, if you want to wait for another 10 years for same amount of money, i am sure there are tons of evo with over 600whp or more like 93~98 mkiv supra turbo today.

Thanks MyCre8n=Evlshn. It’s good to know that some of the **** that I come out with makes sense. Glad to hear that the AEM can handle it. I thought I heard that it could handle up to 10 injectors to. How about triple injectors per cylinder (hehe)? Hope your project goes well and keep us informed.

Chris.
