A new Evo member
I've had my evo for 2yrs but just learned of this sight the other day. Some of the evo guys know me, I'm on dcevoclub, evotuners.net and evom. I auto-x and drag race and take on the occasional street grudge. My car has been down for about 9mos now, but will hopefully be running by xmas. Instead of listing mods, I'll list whats still stock.
Intercooler, lower ic pipe, turbo, exhaust mani, intake mani, TB, suspension, rotors, calipers, wheels....that should be it.
I'm hopin after I pick up a buddy's r comps to do win a few more times this year in auto-x and run a very deep 11 on the stock turbo.

Hey Liam, welcome to the group! Sounds like a nice setup! It's amazing that you all can reach the 11's with the stock turbo. We definitely run out of steam before that, although water injection get's us closer
Definitely try to make it out to a meet sometime, it's always nice to be able to put a face with a profile online!

Will do my best Julian. I'm also a member of dcsportbikes.com and .net. Plus working two jobs.
FYI, Curt Brown went 10s on the 'stock' turbo. And I have the smaller of the stock turbo's. The 03's had a 9.8hotside while the 05s had the 10.5hotside and larger compressor nozzle

What do you do for a living? Working two jobs sucks donkey balls.
Very interesting about the differences in the two turbo's and it's still sick what you all are getting out of them!

I won't even go into it once the sport wheels/tires are back on then it's on. I think I'm going to order a set of blizzaks for next year (just have to remember to order them early, right Julian? )

yes, they are that bad.
after my NASA HPDE last year my instructor said I was smooth and consistent and that was the perfect base to build on. I haven't done any autoX and just one HPDE weekend, but this year I'm going back for another HPDE and would like to get involved in a little bit of autoX. I'm not ready for the craziness of a full blown SCCA event at FedEX Field, but with a small group of friends I'm all in.
