Vishnu Evo X acceleration tests
Hi folks,
The Inside Line (Edmunds.com on-line performance magazine) just tested our tuned Evo X. Probably shouldn't reveal all the testing numbers. But it's probably okay to spill the beans on acceleration. I don't have the the atmospheric corrected numbers, but according to memory, the quickest it actually ran was a 12.6@109.9mph. Best trap was just over 111mph. But the launch was weaker so the ET was slower.
Just a few things... launching this car was a problem. The factory ECU not only looks at clutch position but also vehicle speed to determine whether to active the 5000rpm launch limit. So there wasn't any quick and dirty fix at the time of testing. Disconnecting the clutch switch (a la Evo IX) didn't work. So it would bog off the line regardless of how it was driven. As a result, the best 0-60mph it could muster was a 4.7s. Once we defeat the launch nanny, we should be able to knock 0.3-0.4s off of that time and bring 1/4 mile ETA down to 12.2-12.3s range.
Still, as is, our ET and trap speed are still approximately 1sec and 10mph better than the last stock Evo X gsr they tested. So this gives a good idea of what kind of power the car is making with just our PROcede engine computer and 3" exhaust. More info to come but we'll probably just wait for the review to hit the net first. As always, the guys at The Inside Line/Edmunds were great to work with. They take their jobs very seriously. Also tested that same very day was the new v8 M3, 135i, Audi S6, and Mini Clubman. The M3 testing results are already up at (http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...pageId=136231). Everything else should follow soon
Regards,
Dustin

It made 310-315whp on a Mustang Dyno. Which would probably be around 350-360whp on an AWD dynojet. But this is also on 91oct, not 93oct. Just a basic solid tune. Looks 100% stock under the hood.
