lol based on those #'s im going to assume you have about 210 whp. 10 whp (20 crank hp ) more than t-28. which is good. get better supporting mods for traction, and free up osme exhaust and im sure you will be close to 13's.

1500 miles and counting, no issues with the turbo running smooth , went to the track in gainsville last night, ran mid 15s all night, im missing 3rd and sometimes 4th gear it just wont go in, the funny part is that when im messing around with my buddies on the street it works like a charm, i think im trying to shift too quick at the track probably , i got lined up with an evo 9, brand new guy only had 5000 miles on it, beat him but only because he launched early and seemed like he bogged out. All other runs i was lined up with muscle cars and ofcourse got raped .

On another note, my buddy backed into my (parked!!!) car with his truck , put a hole on my bumper no damage to intercooler thankfully, thinking about getting a body kit for it but dont know which, i really didnt want to i wanted it stock looking but a front bumper cover from the dealer is $500!!!! not even painted! ROCK if your reaidng this how much is the shipping for your evo9 kit?

I didn't realize that the new turbo kits made more power than the T28 kits....... that may have suaded my ultimate decision on which direction I wanted to go.......

Anyway, congrats on the kit and glad to see you making some good numbers.

i was surprised myself, i figured he would pass me towards the end, he was pushing it too because it flew past me a litle after the 1/4 mile mark, he was a new driver to the evo9 so im not too excited about it, the lip i would get but the problem is the hole is in the upper part of the bumper right below the right side vent, got a falken tires sticker covering it and a bunch of dead bugs from the hour and a half trip to the track in gainsville. I love driving this thing on the highway! you puting along doing 75-80 and you push it and bam! youre at like 100+ and i love the sound of it in the car, always reminds me of a jet plane, combiantion of turbo spooling and air being sucked in the intake, i will try to record it for you guys i love driving by cars and hearing it, sounds like its going to take off lol. Gas is about the same as long as i dont boost it too much, takes me about half gas tank to get to my cousins place down in palm coast florida 2hour drive, same it took before the turbo, oh and btw $3.1xx for 93 gas in florida!!!!! its like $2.8xx up here wtf?!
Going to the track here in town sunday hopefully ill brake into mid 14s, yes we are addicted atleast i know our lancer can take some beating, i have done over 50 1/4 mile pulls on my lancer when it was prety stock, and the clutch was still good when we took it out, still keeping it just in case.
I want to do some auto x, but all the events are far away, im a scca member in the bucaneer region, anybody else? do you just show up and race? or do you have to take some kind of class?
Anyways enough chatter, sorry for the long post, gota get to work!

might not be but i assure you, you will fall in love with it, boosting for the first time on a lancer felt like the car was reborn, it was like HOLY S**T! even my buddy with the awd turbo talon was impresed.
good luck with your turbo install hope everything goes good
