I was gonna say *cough* *Ben* *cough* as far as the intake mani and tb, but I don't wanna be a parts pusher like Chu.
How about you Pete? I'm sure they would like a near stock Evo to test!

Yeah. Lets see, 9.8t with a modest 20lbs of boost. that would be interesting... If we (not I, cause I don't have the faith in myself to do it alone, yeah Marc I know.. ) can get my 10.5t and intercooler installed I may be interested. I has money issues though...

If Petey would like to do the pulls @ Krazy house that would be awesome. We can setup 1 day to go do it.

If your interested PM Me. This would be a very very good deal.

we could bang that out in a couple hours. I already told you, you paint the new babies room and I'll work on your car for you.

How big is the room? Does it need to be primered first? Just an fyi, I'm not very good at cutting in, the wife usually takes care of that.


Also, i think going to an intake mani and tb like that would destroy the low-end on these cars, that would not make for a very good auto-x set-up.

I think Petey should get involved in the testing since he also has a new setup. Looks like Ben (3065), Jim (black), Ivan (ams), and Petey (80mm red) would make a nice range in turbos...all thats needed is a stock turbo car.

Marc,

There was no need to include me in those results, lets try again this weekend.....

Pete,
I have an intake and honed-enlarged whatever TB, my lower end is just fine. I think it is how the car is tuned and what parts are being used. I agree though the initial assumption would be a loss in bottom end and increase in top end power, but you can tune around it. If you add in cams it probably would mean bottom end loss but nice gains in mid and top end. I am sure either way cams or not it could be tuned for an Autox car. Honestly it may not be worth the $ to do all that unless you were running more than a stock turbo, I am living proof of that. Cy and Corey run stock intake and TB with a ported stock exhaust manifold and they seem to be just doing fine against me , granted they have MIVEC and I do not.

no primer needed. room size is maybe 12x14, but its got a vaulted ceiling that goes from 8' to like 14' and there are two skylights... there will be cutting in needed. Shelly is welcome to join the party, Karen is always looking for new friends.

I'm not really interested in it to be honest. It would be cool to just throw it on and see what kind of power it would make but I wouldn't want to keep it/pay for it. I have a set of 264's in my car btw, but it might as well be stock as the cams are so mild.

Def would not be doing the ceiling, thats all you brother. Besides, the baby won't know the difference. I can't even get Shel to come out to an autox, yet alone get her to come help me paint at a friends house. We still have friggen painting to do around ours. I may try to get our bathroom done this weekend, its the last room that needs it, after that its just trim and molding (which is worse I feel).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfCZ_iAdH3M

I still have a bunch of other videos to compile. There was an STi there launching the hell out of it every chance it got that got me some sweet vids. He told me he was on a oem stock clutch (2nd one, as well as 2nd motor for the car). I was shocked it was taking the abuse hot lapping.

I tried telling Karen that the baby ain't gonna know the difference either, but she wasn't buying it.
