Default My fun dsm that I drag race.

11.2 @ 129ish mph 1.9 60ft (track prep very bad) 32psi
11.1 @ 125ish mph 1.6 60ft (good prep, earlier in season) 27psi

season is over up here, everything is cold.. makes 10 sec power but new setup in the works.


Well, I FINALLY got some pics. I literally have no pics, or vids of my car to date. Took some today.. I have a few build pics, but nothing serious.

The quality isn't the greatest, but it shows whats going on anyways.

Heres a bit about the car.

Stock 4G63, Arp Headstuds, MLS Mitsu gasket.
Stock Head w/topline revised lifters, FP2 cams.
SLS T3 Manifold, 44mm Tial WG
BW S258 ETT, 0.70 A/R 3" DP/Exhaust
2.5" IC pipes, PTE 750hp core
JM Fab SMIM 'Street Version', PTE 1000CC injectors
Stock Throttle body and Elbow.
-8 feed, -6 return, full blown dual walbro kit. Aeromotive FPR.
Shep Stage 4 trans, w/EVO III 1st, REM ISF, Welded Center Diff.
QM Twin Disc, DSS Driveshaft, 4 bolt rear end. Stock Axles.
AEM EMS, Apexi AVCR EBC, AEM 3.5bar, AEM Water/Meth

The car originally went high 12's on 20lbs, than I went out to sparta for CNN meet and ran 24lbs and did a 11.7 once I could finally get the car to leave half decent, than back to TMP (cayuga), and ran about 11.9's 12.0's on same setup (always slower by a couple tenths at TMP), I did a bit of tuning at 27lbs, and went back to TMP and managed a 11.4. This is with 94 pump, and meth. The car has full interior, full weight and runs EXACTLY how you see it in the pictures. Its such a fun car. The welded diff and QM twin isn't the greatest on the street, but I barley drive it.. maybe 2x a week, usually just to the track and back and very very local.

Im confident, that with some driving practice, a few more lbs of boost I can do 10's on stock motor and pump gas. I also have a better set of wheels/tires to use, these things are worn and so HEAVY.

Heres a brakedown of the 11.4 slip, I also backed it up with 2 11.5's right after that pass.. Heck I even hot lapped it.

60' - 1.831
330 - 4.945
1/8 - 7.462
MPH - 96.98
1000 - xxxx
1/4 - 11.464
MPH - 121.37

Car has gone 123mph, and 1.77 is my best sixty foot ever, I can't wait to get down to some 1.5's. I love these cars because you don't need huge MPH's to go really quick.























I have a motor at the machine shop right now.
20" over Weisco 9:1 pistons
Manley Turbo Tuff Rods
ACL bearings
Kiggly Gridle
ARP main studs.
Line Honed, and Bored with Torque Plate for perfect machining.
All new OEM Mitsu Everything else.

Its still a 2.0L and im undecided with the head just yet.. The machinist is just waiting for me to bring him the rest of the parts, Im waiting on the Torque plate thats it! He will be assembling the rotating assembly, I will be doing the rest.


Special thanks to my buddy Jordan for helping me put this together, WeirTech.ca (aaron) for some wicked aluminum welding, and John Shephard for giving me the tour of your shop, as well as the exception on the core exhange and pickup of my trans/clutch/driveshaft and The Shodan for helping me out with my turbo problems.

I don't really know. My transmission/clutch combo shifts like butter, my shifts are always dead nuts everytime. This might be his issue depending on his transmission. Im the first to admit, that im not the greatest driver in the world.

Thanks for the comments about the plate, It would be more realistic if it was a 7 bolt, but it is comical. I should put the plates on my 96 winter car haha.

you should have no trouble at all getting that thing into the tens with what you have if your running 11.4's with 1.8 60's . i now cut constant 1.65-1.67's after alot of practice in my evo9 MR on the Yokohamas that came stock . so drop that 60 down to the 1.6 range i dont see what you cant get 10's

I have some nice MT ET streets that will be going on the car next week, not to mention with the new wheel/tire combo, I will drop 25lbs between the 4 corners, so less rotational weight. I would have been dropping 44lbs if i would have gotten the volks from R&D Motorsports, but they stole my money so I just settled for some cheap 15x7.5 rota slipstreams.. OH WELL.

But thanks, I hope for 10's, Im hoping for 1.5 60's with lots of seat time. I still could set up a NLTS setup to help keep the turbo spooled too. 10.99 would be great, its just going to be hard since the car has no safety equipment, and to run faster than 11.49 or 125mph you need a '6 point cage'
