A X MR to be reckon'd with, a VIII RS reborn!!
 
Me and Keith aka RoninVIIIRS went down to English Racing to pick up Keith's Evo 8 after waiting for almost 4 months. and I gotta tell you, it's a beast! As for the Evo X MR that we drove down in, it was Igor's aka amsevoixmrse Evo, it was my first time driving a X MR, and for an auto, ita very fast!
Here are some pics of the day.

:lol:

542 whp at 22 psi. Drove back on 19psi at 490 whp. After a little break in period, we will be doing a dyno queen session. Aaron thinks it will break 600 pretty easily. He will be doing a write up shortly. {thumbup}

$h!t Keith, congrats on having the car back. Can't wait to see it in person!

If you don't mind me asking what turbo do you have?

RoninVIIIRS Aug 11, 2011 02:14 PM

Thanks Shane. Next meet for sure!

I have a regular FP Black 84mm ported. Nothing like Mikey's. :lol:

TravEvoIsBeast Aug 11, 2011 02:18 PM

That's a serious 8 seems like a little weight reduction in the interior as well.

RoninVIIIRS Aug 11, 2011 02:22 PM

Yeah. I wanted to make the lightest version of the evo even lighter. I just pulled the carpet, console, trims, back seats out. It's loud but loads more fun.

mclaren Aug 11, 2011 02:24 PM

So I assume this will be full-time E85?

Its a good thing you went and bought a truck since we have no E85 stations near us{thumbdwn}

RoninVIIIRS Aug 11, 2011 02:26 PM

It's on E. I work 6 or 7 miles from the Shell in Snoqualmie. If they stop selling it, I'm gonna start hauling it home. Haha.

idrink_v8 Aug 11, 2011 03:39 PM

Hell yea, Keith! Finally you got to take your beast home. Can't wait to hear how it sound in person. Haha. Car looks clean, too. What? You and Tony wash it before you guys came back up or something? Lol! Congrats, man!

dscevo8 Aug 11, 2011 05:36 PM

You will definately be making over 600 if you're making 542 @ only 22psi lol put that puppy at 35 psi and you're gonna need a neck brace...

droppinbottom Aug 11, 2011 08:24 PM

Sweet rides.

You guys suck with your cheap ass E prices. They rape us on the east side.

edogg23 Aug 11, 2011 08:51 PM

Keith I got to check that thing out! Let me know next time our hanging out somewhere and I'll stop by.
