That's what I like about John - always shooting for unrealistic goals!

If you wanted to get into the 11's on the stock turbo, then why'd you go out and buy that Apex'i turbo kit? Speaking of which, has it shipped yet?

We haven't count no one out, I can predict that we are going to have a huge contest and wave of Evo's running 11's on AZ. Lets see who does it first and best.

Done deal Housedj, I think people want to see our cars in the 11's and off course is going to be a great challenge. I am absolutely not in a ***** contest here, I am looking to met my goal which is a 11.99 or better, if I run faster then even better.

I want to say at this point that my goal is very realistic, I ran the 12.22 before but now I added a few things and I am getting retune.

I really wish you luck regardless of who is fastest or slower, I am just happy for you because we do have a common goal, to be in the 11's on AZ on stock Evo 8 turbo.

Carlos

John, I'm fast enough for now. I should have my racing suspension set up soon. I'll follow that up with a TBE, AVC-R, XEDE & Alchi kit. Then I may go with the 20g. We'll see who's fast. If you wanted something to just go straight - you should have bought a Camaro.

I did read that post a few days ago. The one thing he has that you don't - the Buschur Exhaust! Just ask Maxx what he thinks about it. He went from low 13's to 12.4. The only thing he changed as far as I'm aware of was that exhaust I sold him... which just happens to be a Buschur.

In all seriousness, if you can squeak out an 11 with your set up, then congrats! Just let it be known ... for the record ... that I'm retired from 1/4 mile racing. Let the record also show that I gave you a lesson the last time we raced. Too bad I'm retired, as you'll never be able to avenge the whuppin I gave you!

Just having a exhaust will not make you run from low 13's to almost low 12's. It's a tune, more boost in conjuction with the exhaust. John ran 12.7 with stock exhaust. So now he has exhaust now, so he should run the same or faster.

Update!!!

Project 11.49 (not done yet) is scheduled for a run against Carlos (fromwrxtoevo) fri 03/17 @ Firebird Raceway PHX, AZ.

our cars in their current state of tune have about the same power so it should be a good race. come one, come all. his clutch should be installed & broken in by that time...
