can't believe it about a month ago we installed a begi turbo on a customers mp3 came to the shop today with both 04 evo and the turbo mp3 and it went likt this:
i wanted to take the evo for a spin up the hwy so i did, really strong from the factory so anyways got back to the shop and my customer was taking another customer for a spin in the mp3 so i whipped it behind him so we pull out on the hwy a he take off and of corse so do i but one thing he pulls on me like you would't believe and i'm giving this evo every bit it has to offer and still the mp3 pulls on me i mean i'm takin this thing to 9 g's and all, so we slow down a bust a u in the other direction so i say to myself "self lets not redline this time lets take it to about 6800 and shift" so here we are againi'm behind him a he takes off and once again he pulls and pulls and pulls at this time he's a good 3 cars in front and stil pulling cars. got back to the shop and just had to praise the mp3 couldn.t believe it.

 

Damn thats crazy.. never would have thought!!

 

Going to 9000rpm= Wrecking the engine

 

I never would have thought either???? I mean... Evo8... really fast... oh well... probably not quite as fast from a roll as it would be from a stop.

 

hey jackass, you're full of ****

the evo redlines at 7000 rpm

9000rpm? this ain't no ******* honda.. if you tried that the motor would be in pieces right now

and why the **** did you go rag out a customer's car?

your *** should be fired

 

hahaha. comedy. yah redlines at 7000 ... I'm calling bullshit.

 

hey **** face was u there i didnt think so so shut the **** up!

 

ok so may i got a little excited about the 9g;s but the point of the matter is the the evo had no chance, so there is no need for the language.

ps the customer gave me permission any way idoit and about getting fired gues i'll have to fire myself.

 

where's the vidz... If you work at the shop and not just a bystander .... I would need to see proof ... some type of video ..

Hmmm, and what did the rev limiter sound like when you hit redline??

Big D

 

So I take it that the Pro with just a turbo is running 12s? Remember, EVOs run low 13s and can trap over 100. I call BS.

 

LMAO! But this sounds like some very good bullsht.

 

stock evo's run 13.7 to 13.9 ....
i saw them running 13.8 all day saturday at englishtown ...
except one running 12.0 flat consistent

What were the trap speeds? Bankie said above about the low 13 sec over 100 trap speed. Non-awd cars running in the low 14s can trap at 100mph, so that's showing the evo's lower top end power? I looked for some evo 8 timeslips today, but couldn't find any... They should have real low 2sec 60' times, maybe faster.

 

AWD has some pretty bad parasitic loss. That's why a SRT-4 (which can run high 13s at 103ish) can walk away from a WRX (14s at 96ish) relatively easily.

The EVO is one sweet car. Properly driven, people are getting low low 13s.
