exedy twin hd lol. so far its held up to almost 600wtq. i will prob tune the car to not make a lot of torque but high hp so it holds up better. ill just be using street tires.

the suspension is

Megan Street coilovers
Whiteline Front Roll kit
Agency Power Front trans mount
Energy Suspension Bushings
SSR D5R 18x9 Custom Wheels
255/35R-18 Bridgestone Potenza RE-11

is it possible to trap that high without launching it or must the car be mildly launched at best in order to reach that high of traps? it will have approx 650-660whp

damn thats alot of power but im headed to your territory. and NO i have never been a track *****. The track is 1 hour from me and prices vary pending day you go for real. So if anything i go once or twice a year or something does not really interest me like you think. I dont mind going and watching others for sure. I guess it really depends on what crowd you hang with. IF there were more track junkies around me then maybe for real. Thats why im hoping to meet alot of evo guys in texas this next time i head down. Play nice and make some car friends that wanna roll. LOL hopifully we get some shops together to go to br shootout for first time next year with my built car

ya the shootouts good stuff.. just wear your suntan lotion or you will get super owned by the sun..

i will attend next year and actually run in it. and bring extra OIL with me just in case LOL.

im not a track person either, but as much as i beat the **** out of my car on road it sure as hell isn't gonna hurt tracking it lol.

i wanna get mine on a road course, i think that would be the ultimate rush.

It may be a little hard to trap 140 without having some kind of launch. Its possible, but it might barely touch 140. there is a 705hp evo that bogged the lauch and still trapped 143. The 18s are gonna hurt your trap as well

For sure... Rep the Evos in Tx...

To link up with Strictly Modified would be pretty huge, but i think we should wait till 2012 to do that lol...
