Hi thought I'd take a look at site as was told about it on sunday night at mk cruise by david evo 6 mak edition owner.

As you can tell from my user name I'm kev and my daily driver is a 1992 evo 1,

Owned the car 18 months now and love it, can't upload any pic's at mo as only got the net on my phone but ill put a link up of my last run at pod lol

I'm on evo123 and mlr so your prob seen me before, look forward to meeting and talking to fellow evo owners

Hello people, I was wondering how long it would take for someone to ask specs lol

I got the car with the basics

Lighten flywheel
Uprated clutch
Tein coilovers
Larger rad
Full exhaust and decat
Bov to air
Itg aif filter
Running standard boost

First thing I did was

4 branch manifold
Cheap boost controller
Mines chip, bad move as I later found out.
Boost set to 1.2bar

I ran a 13 dead with theses mods but head gasket went later on so went full out as its my daily runner

Acl shells mains and big ends
Arp head stud conversion
Arp con bolts
Mls hg 1.6mm
Balancer shafts removed
Evo 9 mr 360 piston and rods
Forge adjustable actuator set to 1.1bar
Forge recir dump valve
Evo 8 560 injectors and hs engineering chip / socketed ecu
Evo 3 turbo and elbow.
Walbro 255 pump and afpr


After I rebuild the engine in my shed at home lol she pulled the 12.1

But now I just fitted

Hks 272 cams and pulleys
3mm lashers
Fic850cc injectors
Larger core intercooler
20g turbo
Hks panel filter in standard airbox with modifed cold feed.
Ostrich with anti lag, launch control and knock on cel,

So hopefully I should hit the 11's now just waiting for car to be mapped on 1.5 bar, running 1.1 at min and the car is a hand full since these last mods can't wait to give it another go down pod.


:twisted:
