Default My EVO X daily driver

Not Honda related, but still fun

I drove my big fat daily driver 125 miles to Edgewater in Cincinnati last Friday for a few passes. I think the previous best for a stock turbo car was 11.81 and 114.xx....I did this with my daughters Recaro baby seat in back and Michael Jackson playing on the DVD player

11.72 @ 116.4
11.94 @ 119.5

Nice garage!
That Evo sure does look intimidating...
Is this on a stock engine with the boost turned up?

I'm not real impressed with the red. A lot of guys are picking up about 30hp and losing quite a bit of torque. On some good gas, the red can make decent power, but you are still maxing out under 500hp.

Thanks 4piston for telling me about this forum. After talking with you last night I talked to the guys at Wilson Manifolds this morning about the billet Honda intake. If there is enough interest they will do a run of those manifolds at a reduced cost.

The X is really flying now, good luck with the mext round of mods.

Sorry for the thread jack 4piston, but I have one more thing I'd like to put out there, I need to get rid of some misl Swift spring sets for various models and years, would this be something the community would be interested in? Once their gone thats it. I'm willing to blow them out.
