Exclamation How can I get my evo to runs mid 11's

Well that is my goal for my car, and at the same time I want the car to be my daily.

I already have hks288 cams on it, so please let me know what you guys think.

Sorry for the stupid question but all I know is rotary, this is my first piston sports car..

Thank you

-John

I think the stock fmic is good for 400hp but you start to heat soak it. So yea you'll need a fmic, uicp & licp to fully benefit a fp (forced performance) Red turbo charger

& replace all your stock clamps with T Bolt clamps. That will save you from major boost leak headaches. Sorry I just keep thinking of stuff I did lol

I think you need to stick to the Newbie forums until you can learn more about your vehicle before jumping to questions like "whats an FP Red" or state that you have "288" cams. You should definitely take some time to learn a lot about Evolutions before you decide to modify further.

So a GT35r turbo would help also or is it to big for what I want to do?

Cmon on man, all I al trying to do is get some knowledge ok, If you dont agree with what I wrote, I would appreciate keeping your comments to yourself ok. Like I said before, Never had a piston car for racing, so relax...

The GT35r may be a little laggy for a street car, but thats all a matter of opinion. A GT30r would get you there, and not be as laggy; but the FP Red (FP = Forced Performance) will get you there cheaper.
