No races yet. I have asked a guy running 2.3L Full race 35R setup. He lost to me previously, that I told u. I again asked him. Now he's putting HTA 37R and AMS VSR then will race me. By the time he's ready my DI manifold will be up running too. Just waiting for courier company then you'll be working on it

Btw, I asked a Carrera 911 TT guy to race me but he isn't as he got beaten by another evo last week. Here's the video

YouTube - yasir evo vs. 911 turbo

It was a 3~4 cars gap in 1/4m
This evo is running BR 35R w/ cast mani, BR race fmic, Power FC, HKS 280s & built 2.0L block. Turbo is a non-hta version.

nah, had room to go faster but not to slow down in time so I had to let up. It wasn't really a top speed run.

Ran that Dynolicious program on a friends iPhone and it told me I ran a 11.6@129 LMAO. Hopefully the 11 part is right.

Hopefully I'll have my cams and Red by then.

wow a track rental would be great. 11's would be sweet, you're going to have to drive your ass off

LOL @ that iphone program it thinks you've already got the red/cams/race gas in! speaking of the red, I just got started on tuning one last night, can't wait to see what we can get out of it.

way to go Khalid, sounds like you've convinced the other evo to upgrade just to keep up with your car

I hope we can get some nice gains with the DI manifold, that's a very nice piece, are you doing the TB too?

I believe so

Yes, DI manifold with Hypertune 75mm TB

Mellon · August 26th, 2008

very nice...I'm jealous! I just have the stock ported intake and 65mm tb. I might give the Wilson/Indy Evo V2 a try some day.

Khalid · August 26th, 2008

lol!
y jealous..? infact i'm jealous that everything that reaches us gets doubled otherwise i'd have got double parts from the amount v pay here in shipping & taxes

never mind, in the end it brings a big wide smile when v see big horses running under the hood

anyway, indy v2 is a great option but u know I cant send my core from here. With BR core it was costing me over $3000 & I know it's not worth it to spend that much money to gain another 10~15whp. I think i'm happy with this DI & HT option. That'll give me good number, InshAllah!

I ain't sure yet but I may be racing this silver evo this weekend. He's 4 hrs away from my place so one of us has to get to other's place to race

Let's see

Mellon · August 26th, 2008

yeah it's a shame parts get so expensive for you guys in Pakistan, that would slow anyone down.

I think you made a wise decision on the DI setup and you'll be able to sell your old bits to help offset the price. I'd like to see your car crack the 500awhp barrier.
