yeah, I'm pretty happy with that considering the miserable weather out there.

I can't wait to install the EVOgreen! I'm hoping it'll run 11's in this heat.

doubtful for a few reasons:

1) it's my daily driver and once it starts getting 11's on the g-tech I've met my goal

2) I've taken my g-tech pro ss to the track and it's always within 1 tenth and 1mph of the actual.

3) I don't want it to dead hook and burn up the clutch or worse, bust the tranfer case

my stealth is my street trimmed drag car and my evo is my daily driving with the occasional *gasp* street race or autox trip.

However, I might take the evo to the track at some point when I upgrade the clutch so I can slip it and not break anything.

I'm looking forward to seeing your dragstrip times if you make it down there. In the meantime, I'm especially curious on how the Evogreen performs. I'm always thinking about that turbo but am not sure how it will perform on our California 91 octane.

So Mellon, about what are you putting down now?

Or for reference, what did your g-tech say you put down at the beginning, and what are you at now?

I just recently went to the dyno and here are my results

304 whp and 287 tq
- 3'' megan dp and test pipe (stock catback)
- k&n panel filter
- walbro 255 fuel pump
- boost controller: 23psi tapering down to 19 by redline
- 4 wheel slide Custom Tune

I don't use the g-tech for hp figures anymore, it's way off.. I use data log lab.

it's showing ~ 375awhp in DLL and the 116.5mph traps suggest ~399awhp

Just curious, how far off are the g-tech HP figures compared to DLL?

I haven't done a proper 2nd gear rolling dyno pull for the g-tech but during a 1/4 mile run it's saying ~ 305awhp roughly whereas DLL says ~ 370

also you can try http://www.dsm.org/tools/calchp.htm

fill in 3400lbs race weight
12.10 et
116.5 mph trap speed

and you'll get 420awhp and I always subtract 5% to make it more conservative and that equates to 399awhp (based on weight/mph) e.t. just gives you a good idea about how well you're driving.

none of these tools should be used to quote actual hp numbers, it's just a reference.
