This isnt my car either, its James car and I can only make him as fast as he can afford to, and trust me, you will not find a faster EVO for what he has invested.
damn man. r u really stuck up that much on urself. dont u know that a lot of those evos running 11 sec are doin it on stock turbos or turbos half the size of the one that on james car. so what does that say about ur tuning abilities buddy.

lets bring up the case of ie evo (ron) his turbo that he had when he raced james was smaller than the turbo that james had at the time and is still smaller then the turbo james has now. but he was still running 11 secs in the west coast wit that turbo. not to mention a severely f*cked up tranny. sh*t im surprised he could even drive wit that sh*t. trust me i know i drove it the day that he and james first raced. and just to let u know a lil bit of info. his car was more powerful than james car at the time. he actually took it easy during those races. he told me this. and i also experienced it first hand when i was driving it, when me and james were doin pulls after the races. now u may say "ron was using more boost." ok maybe he was. but dont forget that his turbo was smaller than james turbo. so even wit more boost he probably was pushing the same amount of air as james on lower boost.

ok now u really are a dumbass. so ur only using 22 psi. how big is ur f*cking turbo ur using. aint it bigger than a GT35r??? so that damn comment dont make no f*cking sense. how much lag does that turbo have? ur not dealing wit a bunch of newbie here. i rode in james's car. and yes it is a beast, but the car has way too much lag. a good tuner could use a smaller turbo and better built-up engine and make it into the 11 easily. sh*t ie evo (ron) is a good example of this. sh*t look at joe. on a stock turbo wit about 3k in parts and tuning ran a 12.3 on a STOCK TURBO ON 24 psi. didnt it take an upgraded turbo for u to break into the 12's trevor???? ur such a f*cking tool. its rediculous.

also so what if a cover shot of an evo say 675hp @40 psi. i bet anything that the turbo on james is bigger than the turbo on that evo. the fact of the matter is the majority of 600hp+ evos run GT35r turbos. which is smaller than ur turbo, right? and spool quicker too. so the fact that ur turbo is bigger would cuz u not to have to run high psi. get over urself trevor. if u were so damn great, everyone would be buyin ur parts and not AMS, Buschur, RRE, Vishnu, etc etc....

fact of the matter is james car is f*cking fast. maybe not the fastest evo in vegas (sam), but is the faster tracked car. we Lv Evos love and respect james. even if u and james dont actually believe it. but honestly man, as a tuner. u should have been had that car on a standalone or some better tuning device than a SAFC by now wit that big turbo. u should have already rebuilt the valvetrain and raised the rev limiter a long time ago. and u should be looking into rebuild the bottom end if u guys are pushing that much hp and torque as a safety measure. i understand that all that happens to james's car is all james choice. and all of us evo owners have suggested a few things to him. but in the end he listens to u more than us. as a tuner u suggest a better buildup. that fact alone is the biggest reason why most of us dont believe in u.

Its not your fault you guys are behind, the whole Vegas race scene is behind because there are not enough shops like mine where you can go, spend a little bit of money and come out with big results. James took a risk with me because of the way you talk about me and what other people say. But, his risk payed off and for Just under $7000, he has over 500 whp and tons of respect from different people, mostly the Vipers, Ferraris, Corvettes, Lambos ect. Not as soon as Corey can build a motor, fabricate a turbo kit/ intercooler kit, tune an engine and use his overall experience to decide whats best for a car and not just rely on surfing the net for the answer then he is gonna be one hell of a tuner. Till then, James will be the fastest EVO and everyone else will spend big bucks to chase behind him.


And those EVOs in the magazines have 25-50 k invested, Ive talked to many of them, just ask Sam.
ok 25k. but i guarantee their bottom ends as well as the rest of their cars way more reliable than james car right now. u pushing the limits of an evos stock bottom end. its a known fact the evos bottom is not as strong as the 4g63 in the old eclipses. what else they got a standalone to make better and more usable power. better fuel systems and strong differientals and trannys. so where is ur case at. any moron can slap on a bigger turbo and tune it. if i didnt wanna make sure i had the right supporting mods for my car, i would have done that. so whats ur point trevor???? so james put in 7k. well lets do the math here. ill use joe and jesse as an example. they invested about 3k in their cars some far. and their cars are easily 12s on a STOCK TURBO. so what would happen if they decided to upgrade and invest the other 4k to match james's investment. they would be at least as fast (if not faster) and probably more reliable.

SO SOMETHING NOW

Then the other smart guy said "Well you should have gone to Corey", and then Lost sol said "yeah, should have gone to Corey". This is why Vegas's EVO croud is so far behind the rest of the Country because of people like you. I'll be at the meet tuff guy to see what you can misunderstand about there.
you have to be the dumbest person on this thread and let me tell you that is a great achivement why wouldn't we tell a member about a way to get the same quality of work done for cheaper. THINK before you type it seems to be a issue on this board

edit: and yes this still goes even if she was told after the work was done, that way next time she can save some cash on the next install.

did I read somewhere that TREVTEC thinks james car is the fastest evo on the west coast??? please tell me I'm seeing things because that would be some funny $hit

james no offense to your car because it's a nice ride, but it's far from the fastest.

I might be interested. I've been needing to get my car tuned for months now. I was going to go the Dynoflash route (I know, I know) but that fell through. I don't have a ton of stuff done, but I definitely need a tune for what I got. I just think my car needs some going through at this point. Jeremy installed everything and I don't think I'm getting the full boost potential that the car should have.

Anyway, now that I'm getting divorced, I'm not sure how long I'm going to keep my car. I LOVE this car, it's paid for and don't want to give it up but the upkeep is so damn expensive. I guess I'll at least keep it until I need to do something major to it and see where the funds are at the time.

I'll keep a look our for more info about the tune as it gets closer.

You're the guy that Jeremy was talking to that day we were at our new house we WERE having built, right?

I don't know if he's selling it now or not. He can't make up his damn mind. I don't think your friend would want it anyway. Jeremy has been complaining about the rotors lately. He also just told me on Mon that he thinks something is now wrong with the turbo. On top of that, back in Aug his car was overdue for an oil change. He's made 2 trips to Cali in that time and the car STILL needs one at this point.

I'm not trying to knock the car because of what's going on between us. I'm just being straight up about it.

Here's his cell if you want to call him anyway 580-8413

first off this is ******* for this post
where in hell do you get that james t3t4 50 trim was and is bigger than a gt35r, are you ****ing retarded, gt35r is way bigger and ie will tell you, he was at TT with us and he tried his hardest to argue with that untill alfred and the other guy were like STOP and told him exactly how much bigger ie's was than james, so get over that **** just because ie ****ed you so good that night. and even now jame's turbo is about the same size as a gt35r, but is a little bigger but jame's does not spool as quick, he does not have a standalone because right now he cant afford it, same with building his motor.
homeboy with the stock turbo here went 12.3 but he did it when it was 50 to 60 degrees out and when he ran in the heat he found out that even running 12.7s was hard in the vegas heat.
BY ONE GUY TELLING SOMEONE THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE GONE TO COREY AFTER THE JOB IS DONE IS KINDA ****ED UP, IT IS SAYING DONT GO TO TREVOR EVEN THOUGH SHE JUST SAID SHE LIKED THE SERVICE AND THE WORK SHE HAD DONE.
I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF COREY FORGOT TO FILL THE TRANSFER CASE OR THE SEAL ON IT BROKE AND THE TRANSFER CASE BROKE, WOULD HE REPLACE IT. ****, LDL FORGOT AND THE RUMOR WAS THEY DID NOT COVER THE WHOLE THING, BUT BUT BUT I COULD BE WRONG!!!!

and i dont see where u get off sayin that the vegas evos are for behind other evos in the country. where u get the sh*t from. r u judging us by the fact that were not all 11 sec cars. have u not realized that the majority of us arent looking to upgrade to big *** turbos right now. if ur so great put a stock turbo back on james car and race it. and lets see how great almighty king of 4g63 TREVOR is. ur such a damn lame ***.

o by the way thanks for making james feel like we are against him. fact of the matter is we just dont like U
YOu are against James, you guys try to get him smoked all the time. You set him up with a new race all the time with people you are sure will beat him because of the 1/4 mile numbers you always believed to be real. And I think we just might slap his stock turbo back on just for fun, I bet it will go just as quick because of the quick spool. We might have to run hi boost but Im sure it will go mid to hi 11s. Trust me, if you guys didnt have to pay 50k to be as fast as James you would all do it. You guys have been driving down to cali to get tuned and come back with like 15 hp somewhere in the mid range you dont even use and spending hundreds for it.
