If the car was T-Boned and the owner is with State Farm then I would know about it, plus it has to be a CVT configured transmission and engine unharmed by the write off. It must also be considered unroad worthy, like with a bent or broken frame,

then i get to lock it up in a garage and torture it todeath with a high boost setup.

 

i dont know if it was state farm.. but that car is not going to be on the road any time soon.. all the airbags deployed..and when i say all...i mean EVERYTHING...knee bag, side curtain... also they took the two right side door off b/c they couldn't open it... hopefully he has state farm... *crosses finger*

 

What the Hell are you talking about? He's not a race shop. He's not "releasing" his exhaust or "products". He's custom making his own axleback setup. Maybe you can talk him into buying that, but why are you talking like he's a vendor?

 

well i thank you for your positive feed back on this issue. i have talked to him before through emails and he has mention may times that this item will be up for retial but has not really said to much about a date or anything of that matter. he has just claimed that it will be done when he feels its to its perfect to his specifications. if u also look at evol souls cardomain account he has links to his ebay account where he is selling his plate relocator and it also states that the exhaust will be for retail sale. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2957708 heres his link. also i felt this was a quetion tht might have been on other minds so rather then me email him privately and him responding for only me to see i thought eveyone could have some insight on the matter. besides even if i was completely wrong for asking him a question like this dont u think ur alittle over the top and putting me on the spot for no reason. i know there are may other stupid things being said in other parts of this forum please address those properly before attacking me. but please correct me if i am wrong maybe i misunderstood his views and ideas.

 

LOL Let me jump in there and answer this before Blacksheep has a chance to pick up the saber. This is the problem with the internet, the project and what I am doing works in real time, if I make comment somewhere, it may be taken out of contexted or it maybe read in the wrong light. You will look at the car domain reference, I havent updated that since mid December, other place maybe different. One thing is for sure ,most of the accurate details I have mentioned about any of my projects have been mentioned here, recently I have started a blog but generally thats the only thing I have put the time and effort to provide active updates.

The term retail, I should make it clear, I guess is a bit nebulous or at least it can be, and context is everything these days. I mentioned this to I think BLUEGTS when he posted a comment ealier in this thread, my response was Feb 10, 2008, 12:56 PM
I mentioned it then and in more frank private emails before to many who have asked where can I get this or will you sell it. I am not selling anything in the traditional sense, I am not out for profit or to establish a fixed brick or morter business. If I make anything beyond break even its either donated or rolled over into another project. If its at a dyno day or If I have 5 CAI custom intakes around and slap something together that works, I sell it and move on, get feedback and move on, I have done something similar with friends and allies who have maybe allowed me to mess with their car, or maybe utitlizing a special tool or resource, or maybe a dyno machine.
If the product catches on , I revisit it which is what I am doing now. Now I am in a position to line something up so that I can connect the people who are interested with those who can provide the service or the product. I dont put myself in as a middle man, but more as a conduit. I dont want people to argue about this nore do i want to give anyone a wrong impression of whats going on. What can I say I am a guy who is starting to live and sleep out of his lancers

I mentioned before, its a more personal connection for me, I wouldnt let anything go unless it is exactly what I am looking for, or in some cases I see something that can be made better. I have contacted many vendors already to provide ideas, or solutions, because I try to help make things better, in some cases I get the chance to use the product and even modify it. The vendors here on evom and i guess who service the lancer / evo community, I envy them, its alot of hardwork that goes into running an tuner retail operation. And keeping something like that together and working like a well tuned evo engine takes experience and heart too.

So I would blame this little dust up on myself, for not unifying my message. In the future, message me here, and or post here. What ever is going down it will be mentioned here. I guess you could call me a lazy *** for just not editing all the other places I may have posted.

As Blacksheep has pointed out, I need an editor my writing/spelling/grammer is dogSh!t,

 

The current update is that on Tuesday which is tomorrow we are going for fitting for the rear section bodykit and we are going to take some pictures, I will so my shop guy and ask some questions about working with the fiberglass, and what his take is as we work thru the process.

I am currently speaking with John at Rally Innovations about some of the products they have in the works and possibly something that may compliment this dual exhaust project
, I will keep everyone up to date as things evolve.


So as you can see, being one guy, I got a million things going on at one time.

 

sweet cant wait to help u out!

 

LOL I might be coming down to Florida for spring break lol but not sure if i am going to drive down there, but hey who knows

 

first question I asked my bodyshop boys about the bodykit, is this gonna be a walk in the park or what? lol then they threw fiberglass peices at me. (i take that as a no) I will talk tomorrow with Rob the head guy about how hard its gonna be. THey were able to take a picture for me.

 

that is going to look sweet when it's done!

 

that looks really good man, how much of a power increase does this thing produce

 

I dont want to toot my own horn or anything at this point, I have modified this exhaust more times then I can count with different piping sizes and versions. As it sends now the power levels are can separated into three areas.

Max Torque
Max Horse Power
Overall power band increase , looking at the curve from the low end up.

My Performance goals favor Max TQ and Overall powerband increases over pushing for a Max HP. Its very hard to achieve both with the type of piping configuration I have. A straight pipe will yield more Max HP.
The final configuration I have selected produces the most TQ I have seen so far on the dyno vs. other custom job.

In terms of dyno sheets, the dyno day I am organzing in Toronto well allow for a better look at all the products out there. I am talking to vendors now to ensure that there are going to be a few pieces of donated hardware floating around.



Getting back to what is on the burner now, working with fiberglass is not fun, alot of work has to be done to get this on there, its not gonna be a plug and play operation that i prayed for. Here is a small video of us looking over what needs to be done.... sorry no sound, to much swearing by the bodyshop guys.

MOre updates as they come

 

that video was frustrating to watch, mostly cause of the no sound thing... but w.e., but it looks good

 

anyone live near Marietta, GA For a related dual exhaust and single exhaust situation.

 

cool!
