No, but at least it's indoors right now. Ordered a starter from mitsubishiparts.net, but they won't receive until Wednesday, once they ship it I should get it by next weekend at the earliest. NAPA, Schucks have them as a special order part as well so I decided to just buy OEM.

Ruptured a power steering hose in my jeep so I'm driving the evo! battery needed to be charged but she started right up. Steering line has a nasty sharp bend in it so I'm ordering the factory molded hose instead of risking it with bulk hosing. Hopefully have it fixed by the end of the week.

It won't. He said the dyno sheet was somewhere around 390-400HP, it went 11.8 at 116 for the Super 4 Shootout. Not sure what Richard added to it after he bought it though.

I think WRCRS should/will go 10s on race gas, but he told me he's only running pump 90 at the track just to **** off Rusty.

^LOL

I've driven the HKS Evo. Its definitely pretty nasty. Highly responsive with the 2.3 stroker. It was because of that car that I decided to go with a stroker over a long rod 2.0 motor. If you haven't driven a stroker car I highly recommend it. There is no replacement for displacement.

But in fairness, the newer setups produce quite a bit of power. We've all seen that the small 30r turbo's have been kinda phased out with the Red's/Black's and the BBK-B's coming out.

I have a maganaflow muffler on my car which is the quieter option from buschur if your interested in hearing that. I think there is a white evo running around with a bullet exhaust I saw it at the track last year but can't recall if they are on the boards or not.

Supposingly during that test they only ran 93 pump, I used to love that issue because of that car when it came out. Talking with Richard a while ago he said he tuned it on 109 race gas which I'm sure the new owner won't be running that all the time. Anyways it's not my car but too bad it's gone to someone as dumb as him. A piece of history gone down the drain lol.

Called mitsubishiparts.net, they have yet to receive the starter and don't know where it is, blaming it on the heavy snow fall in Washington. Having a used one shipped out tomorrow.
