Agreed, He is a freakin moron when it comes to driving. He rests his foot on the clutch pedal. It doesn't matter if he is racing or just cruising around town!! I don't think the clutches he has had in his car have ever been fully engaged while driving. I'm not sure what the car is really putting down cause it's never been on a dyno but the stage 1 evo9-20g is rated at 450whp so who knows. He's got intake, exhast, tubular mani, o2 housing, hard piping (lower and upper), fuel pump, MBC, and 264/272 cams

I personally think he's right around 350 on pump and 380ish on c16. The car still hasn;t been professionally tuned. this nut is "doing it himself". I only chill with this guy cause he's the only other evo owner in the Great Falls, MT area.

<<yes i ment to put ACT 2900 and not ACT 2600>>
Did you get a lightend flywheel as well? Thats what I did. I'm so curious on how its going to be, there has been a few ppl here that were saying its a noisy bish for the break in

This coming form a guy that doesn't even drive his own car at the tracks!!!

Seth... Who really cares!?! I'm not out to beat anyone!! Besides, My 20g still isn't tuned. I JUST PUT IT ON TWO (2) DAYS AGO!!


AS for the question about the lightened Flywheel....

We did install a lightend flywheel on my buddies car with the ACT2900sd. I installed whatever came with the clutch that i got from Eloy who is the reaginal rep fro Exedy. The exedy twin has been louder for me after break-in than it was durring break-in.


ANd for the guy with the "rated hp" comment. I never said he was running 450+hp. I simpole implied that whatever this guy is making the ACT 2900 single street disk clutch is holding.

Sorry about your wheels. That sucks.

Jake has an extra set of stock Evo 8 wheels in the garage. Nice set of Kumho 710s for the track mounted on 'em. He needs to sell 'em. You can paypal me and pick 'em up today. I need them out of the garage!

Time to move my RPF1's into the basement. Also has anyone done a boost leak test on there Evo. I think I may have a leak or my gauge is bad. I’m only reading 12 -15 psi.
