sh*t i would say do a search but that normally dont help. most of the time u get pointless threads. just make a thread asking about the benefits. better yet ill do it for u. cuz i wanna know myself. i want 280s and i know ill need cams for these.

The SAFC needs to go and u guys need to get his car in the 11s with some competent tooning. I have heard many excuse about we were only boostin 19 psi etc and it made all this power. It appears that you have found out that boostin higher than that brings other extraneous tuning variables into play that causes unforseen issues. U need more timing control IMO and someone that can tune your choice of engine management. For Jame's sake get that car in the 11s; he has spent enough coin and it should be doing at least 11.8 at 118 mph even in the heat/altitude of Vegas. I will give u the title of "BEST TOONER" but not best tuner. Get jame's car in the mid 11s and get a lil respect from the Evo cmmunity.

He needs those to make this turbo he has work well. He still accomplished a 12.1@117 with 18 psi on this turbo, not 25+ like it takes average EVOs tuned by chumps. This is a 700+ whp turbo that needs more RPMs and compression to work well. Once we build the motor, then an EMS will let us run the car the way it should, 9000+ RPMs, 35 psi, and some practice behind the wheel and it will be deap in the 10s at over 135 mph. Its just a 4G63, I have 10+ years experience with them. As far as respect, all I need is James respect, haters are always gonna be haters, and haters will always be left behind.

Headstuds can be had for like 100 bucks. Try lancershop. That price on the twindisk is cheap as f uck. DO IT. I dont know what the benefits of cam gears are, but I know that Buschur refuses to use them. Take that for what it is.

Simple physics. I know plenty of stock turbos running 11s and low 12s. Ill say this, drag racing isnt the end all of tuning accomplishment. No one is "hating" you , its just a matter of some of these members feel as though you are talking down to them and bragging a little much when nothing amazing has been accomplished. If James' respect is all you need then obviously you dont want the business of the many Evo owners here in vegas. These guys want to see accomplishment and concrete evidence of how competant you are.
