Default I used to own an ITR, so it's type r related

But now I have an EVO

mods:

Full TBE
MBC
Intake
LICP
Ported EXH manifold
3" O2 housing
Tune

320whp/302wtq.

These aren't dyno numbers as it was a street tune so they're just calculated by load, rpm, gear and some other factors. But no knocking, A/F is good throughout the rpm range, and peak boost is 23.2 psi tapering to 19 psi.

There is a new AWD dyno getting installed here in DFW, so hopefully when it gets done i'll get some real Dyno numbers.

And the butt dyno tells me this bitch is WAYYY faster. In 6th gear at 3000rpm it used to take a long time to get up to boost and accelerate on the highway. After the tune the thing hits boost instantly and accelerates like a bat out of hell.

First gear is practically not useable hahah.

Power Ganador replicas.

As for the wheels, these are 3lbs lighter and 1/2 inch wider than the BBS wheels so they hold a 255 tire perfectly and are only 15.5lbs.

sorry if this is a newbie question, but is that underneath your hood? to cool down the turbo?

The hood scoop directs air directly to the intake filter. I think that's what you're refering to. The thing literally ON the underside of the hood?

i understand rotational weight.....

but w/ the power potential of that car...... 3 lbs would not make that big of a difference for me to change the wheels.....

now, on a torqueless Honda, that is a different story......

yeah, width was the biggest factor. You CAN squeeze a 255 on the stock 8" wide wheels but it's not super safe.

That's because 99 percent of women think the EVO is horribly ugly..
