think he bought the car like that so not much of a choice besides choosing another build evo

 

I'm glad to see someone else with a BBY and stock taillights.

Not for long! Hopefully 9 tails coming soon!

 

Got car tuned!

 

Car then broke wrist pin, motor will be pulled this weekend and going to do new pistons and probably change compression ratio.

more power to come

 

Any idea why? Faulty install, parts failure?

 

Well it has wossner pistons, I am thinking they are just junk. I am going to go with je pistons and bit higher compression ratio than 8:0:1 and with my spoolin up cop I don't think I will have any problem breaking 500 wheel on pump gas

 

update: The pistons and wrist pin are fine, It ended up being a rod bearing! No major damage and should have motor back together this weekend. Also I am getting a shep trans while it's apart and new act clutch

 

Update: Got a new act hd sitting here, and my trans is currently getting built out at shep's going with the ultimate ratio trans, then plan on going to stm to get tuned!

 

Doing evo vii tails this weekend, and also got my ams header ceramic coated silver.

 

honestly 35R is not meant for the 4cyl 2.0 ltr engine, the turbo looks laggy on your graph, there is no usable power and torque down low, this is where the V8 shines.

that's why in Japan you won't see tuner put 35R or bigger turbo into evo, it's not meant to be

 

i rmember back in tha day where we were using 42R and 40R all day long, cars making 1000 hp plus, but i do agree with you on the late spool i like my power and tq to hit now not at 5k, that is where the 6262 and FP black will give you an edge on any V8 or big turbo evo, plus a bit more of compresion, and even better a strocked engine will help that laggyness.

 

Looking forward to seeing you at STM! Nice car aswell.

 

Yes I can't wait, they do awesome work up there. I am a big fan for sure
Your car is sick btw

 

I don't mind the lag, it's like giving everybody else a head start
