Question Terre Haute, IN

Anyone besides me in the Terre Haute, IN area? I feel all alone thanks to the local dealership (Dorsette Mitsubishi) being unable to sell an EVO if their life depended on it.

Thanks,

Keith

Keith,

Why don't you make the trip over for the Dyno day on Nov 1? I have made the trip from St.Louis to Indy and back in one day many times. We would love to have you join us. Let us know, the event is actually going to be held at Axis Racings new dyno shop located in Belleville Il.

I am working on that day or I would make my way over, it is only a 3 hour drive and it would be worth it to meet some more EVO owners. Oh well.

What kind of dyno do they have out there? I dynoed on a "dynapack evolution 5000" dyno up in Novi Michigan (I have lots of family in Michigan that I visit).

Stock I made 232 HP. With an air filter, boost controler, and SAFC II, I made 269 HP at 20 psi of boost on 93 octane. After pouring in some 100 octane and bumping the boost up to 23 psi we made 303 HP. My next part I want to add is this:

Than I will need to dyno again and see if I can get over 300 HP to the wheels on 93 octane

Later,

Keith

Nice numbers Keith! Looks like the combo of air filter, fuel management, and boost control netted you 37 whp over your stock run. Obviously pumping-up the boost on 100 octane had some interestig results eh?

Btw- The Axis Racing dyno is a Dyno Dynamics which tend to read low.... and I think the numbers for a stock Evo tend to be in the 200-210 range if I remember correctly.

Man, its a wonder you could keep from hitting fuel cut at 23 psi!!

Sorry you can't make it, but if anything changes let us know!

I think I avoided fuel cut because it was a hot day (around 80 deg) so the air was not very dense..... that and the fuel tunning telling the ECU that less air was entering then really was did the trick! I think with the cutout style downpipe (or anyone running a full 3" turbo back) wouldn't be able to run that kind of boost and avoid fuel cut though.

Later,

Keith

The Southern IN Region of the SCCA is hosting their first rallycross in Owensboro, KY on Nov 1 (Sat). More info at http://www.rallycabal.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=771

I'm involved in the St Louis region's rallycross program and I'm sure you'd have a LOT of fun going sideways in the dirt
