What does a stock 05 evo 8 do in a mile?
well thats the problem i dont know were one is, but the other night i tryed it out lol but i got out of hand and like befor mile i was at rev limiter and just sat on it for almost 3 miles, with the windows down i count help my self. lol, and rev limiter was at 8300 ahh hahahah.
on a 1.5 mile runway without a hard launch i think i made about 160 mph. i have it on video with my cell phone while i was driving (i know, maybe a little crazy)... with stock limiter 170ish is top speed (i've hit that), so with an extra 700 rpm you should be nearly 180. with pump gas and stock turbo evo8 i would question hitting the rev limiter in one mile, but it is totally possible as i was reasonably close (although that last 10mph goes REAAAAAAAlLY slow, and sense it only takes 20 seconds to do a mile when going that fast, you need to be pulling hard to get that last 10mph in the mile.
i had no limiter on my, with 8300 rev limit only, and i hit it very easy, i will one night make a high gear pull i will go to like 2nd gear and rall it. my friend with a blown mach 1 didnt belive that my car gets to 8300 in 5th so fast, and he was like holy **** after. my car no lie really rips throw the rpm with no problem
You guys are retarded. "Frum Taxas" was in reference to the old saying that "everything is bigger in Texas"...Instead of 1/4 mile, they use the full mile. More appropriately, it was implying that all Texans imbreed, which is shown by the lack of comprehension displayed here.

1. Purchase a stock 2005 Evo 8.
2. Find a nice, flat, straight strip of road with no obstructions.
3. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
4. Reset the trip odometer to 0.0 miles.
5. Press the clutch in.
6. Put the gear selector in 1st gear.
7. Press the gas pedal down to the floorboard.
8. Once you're bouncing off the rev limiter, let the clutch out.
9. Once the car redlines in 1st gear, press in on the clutch.
10. Put the gear selector in 2nd gear.
11. Let the clutch out.
12. Once the car redlines in 2nd gear, press in on the clutch.
13. Put the gear selector in 3rd gear.
14. Let the clutch out.
15. Once the car redlines in 3rd gear, press in on the clutch.
16. Put the gear selector in 4th gear.
14. Let the clutch out.
15. Once the car redlines in 4th gear, press in on the clutch.
16. Put the gear selector in 5th gear.
17. Let the clutch out.
18. Note the speed indicated when the trip odometer registers 1.0 mile.
19. Let off of the gas pedal.
20. Brake and downshift as needed.
21. Post your findings in this thread.

actually we in "Texas" do have a mile competition, every year, at an airstrip in Goliad. Makes most of the Magazines.

I had no clue!Would that be the one that Mike Riechen's Evo 2 was at?
I don't really know much about how you guys do things in Taxas. I'm not frum around them there parts.
Mike1023,
Me and Sergio(Evofunk) have been collecting European car magazines since early 80's. There are a few European(Spanish magazine and others) that test the cars in a 1km, 2km mark and total top speed.
It might be hard for me to retrieve the 1 mile mark but I can certainly get you the info on the Evo on the 1km, 2km and top speed.
If you want you can go ahead and send a PM to Sergio(Evofunk) he has a database that he created that it took him about 2 full years to accomplish, this data base is the abrevation of the dynos,top speeds,acceleration,roll acceleration and a huge amount of other test.
These are the type of info I get to see and that otherwise goes unnoticed to Evo m. This Evo 8 MR does the 1000 meters at 134mph (.63 of a mile) and it takes 24.7 secs to cover that distance

That is the kind of $hit I read in other forums in my primary language, the real test with real top speed and dynos. The second link I psoted shows you speed at the 1kilometer mark, speed at the 2kilometer mark and real top speed.
You guys gotta love me..
