Interesting program there Justin

I have over 680cc injectors. Think it will still work with my ECU?

whats up guys,

for those of you who have driven the new evo X MR, what are your thoughts and opinions? I am considering the X, but want to get some opinions first on the different models/options.

thanks in advance,

Collin

Obviously you cant have a ton of duration if your pushing the valve deep into the cylinder with a ton of lift. I am just curious what that cam design is built with in mind of. Peak power / drag. ????

Oh and nice pup by the way!!!!

get bored with the audi already?

have you driven an X GSR yet? i was impressed with the ease of handling and responsiveness but was far less impressed by the power.

yes it will. but only if you switch to a JDM muffler bearing. the us spec muffler bearing doesn't have the travel required to accurately tune your injection pulse for the nawz system.

I went out and used your prog this morning. I had to slam my laptop shut and yell "shutup!!!" for some reason. Other than that, it worked well.

The Audi is really nice, but not nearly enough performance. I haven't driven either the MR or GSR yet, but am more interested in the MR. I have heard some good things about the trans and suspension and heard they have quite a bit of potential for serious power (as does the GSR). Unfortunately, Baierl apparently wont let anyone touch their MR, which is fine, cause I wouldnt buy it from them anyhow. Either way, Im just trying to feel around for some reviews/opinions before making a decision either way.

Idk who told you about serious power in the mr but there wrong.... it cant hold over 400whp or you will burn out the tranny and have to pay around 5-10g for a whole new tranny. I dont like the MR cause its not a clutch but the interior is nicer. i would still take my gsr over the mr

Idk who mike is, but the tranny overheating and not being able to hold over 400whp is 1 of the main problems with the MR other than that the suspension is a little better than the gsr and like i said the interior is nicer

Well guys after many (back and forth thoughts) on what turbo setup to get for hillclimbing i've finally pulled the trigger. Now i think i got a good deal, and that made the choice alittle easier, but here it is. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sa...-kit-sale.html. Its won't be a drag monster bye any means but it will be a good "decent" power turbo setup. Now i only need injectors and i'm ready for a tune. SO do i run E85 or just stick with 100 octane fuel. I'm alittle worried about not being able to find E85 in some cases and race gas is much easier to find at a race. Now what size injectors?

its still a great car and i know some companies are looking into making either a whole new tranny or just some upgraded parts that eliminate the over heating and so it will be able to hold more power. AMS, Xtremeboost, and couple other companies are looking into it but are taking a long time about it..
