I got my 9 MR tuned at destination performance in Orlando last week, next up for 2022 is new clutch. Any recommendations on clutch replacement? I'm running 361/375 stock turbo with bolt ons

 

What's the plan for the car? Daily at roughly that power level, an ACT HDSS is tough to beat. Shooting for a turbo upgrade and more power, a twin disc like the Exedy or the new ACT one might be a good choice.

I personally ran the HDSS up to 500whp/400wftlbs and it was great. After a motor build and turbo upgrade, I smoked it at about 600whp/500wftlbs and moved to a Exedy twin and like it a lot as well.

 

Get the Evo2 bodywork all done and repainted/ carbon fiber roof installed by spring 2022. I will be happy.

 

Max out the stock turbo on E. then decide on a Turbo upgrade.

2022 Goals

1. Rebuild the OEM 5 speed to have as a spare.
2. Replace my FP Black with the fastest spooling turbo that will make 500hp on E85 with a 2.3L. (Anybody know if the FP54 GREEN, MHI TF06-18K, or the 71HTA Super Core has ever gotten there? Any other suggestions? Torque welcomed.)

3. Get a set of wheels and upgrade to Ohlins DFVs (probably not gonna happen)
4. Convert my three gauges into a single multigauge. Looking at options such as PLX and Zeitronix for a more subtle look than a three gauge A pillar pod.
5. Get a more stock feeling clutch so that my wife can drive my car too. She hates the ACT 6 puck sprung lol ( I don't blame her).

 

Get her running again, its been almost a year of me taking too long to get things done and changing my mind on stuff.

New Clutch i think is needed.

Start buying parts for an engine build ( maybe not)

 

1. Get my car back from Slowmotion with a full tune.
2. Make 1000whp on some sort of dyno.
3. 10.99 pass on street tires.
4. Install driveshaft and driveshaft loop.
5. Get t case upgraded.
6. Get trans upgraded.
7. Get to run test and tune at the shootout.
8. And last but not least and most importantly whoop XrogueXs *** at the shootout with his fp black setup. (Love ya buddy)

 

1) Go to TX2K and run the sequential car
2) Get the Paint corrected on the fp red car
3) Full engine catch pan
4) Road course with the fp red car

 

After going without a scratch from Hurricane Laura and Delta of 2020. My goal for my Evo for 2021-2022 has been building to be reliable 900whp.

New clutch

Brake upgrade

Tune

 

Bought a 2005 Evo 8 last week. Plan to restore it back to stock.

It was parked out in the sun for 7 years. The paint is absolutely ruined. Getting that fixed/repainted in November.

 

Alright Luis @LuisVPR Keep us posted on your project & great to have you on board w/us

Cheers, Joe

 

How is your engine holding? And what power are you making?

 

I have had a few setbacks and working out fresh build bugs, but it should finally be running soon.
