Dear Evo, We will go fast

Long story short this is my 4th motor Ill be putting into the car. We have had some ups and downs, been BFFs and wanted to kill each other.. All said and done I still have my Evo "Lady Darwin" or "LD", and decided to make this build different.

Here is a link to check out my previous build threads:

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/pr...age-build.html

I wanted to try something I've not seen much of.. try something to stand out a bit .. so F!! it why not .. its either going to work or break .. and after it being down this entire past year while Ive gathered parts, waited on crappy machine shops and back ordered parts.. so what if it breaks again .. Ive realized ... Ill just end up doing this all over again ... so why not have some fun and do something to stir the pot a bit

So basically its a street car, full interior VIII MR, leather, radio, no intentional weight reduction etc etc... and i like it that way .. that car is stupid fast and i enjoy not driving a POS .. if I wanted a gutted tin can id buy a honda.. they are cheaper and can weight alot less, I digress....

This build is something of an experiment, and something I think is pretty neat regardless of the outcome.. So I decided I wanted a high revving, high boost, high compression 2.0L with a stupid massive turbo .. coming from 900hp and a 6466 set-up that turned 9500 .. this was something of a challenge to top ...






































Thanks for checking out the build .. I have some big plans for this .. and excited for the outcome!!

More updates as progress continues.. motor install this weekend
