Hmmm I think I've seen close to that with an evo 8 16g like 270's.
I am shooting for 300 whp with the new tune as well or atleast as close to it as I can get. I am optimistic about the motor holding up, but I am not so sure about the trans.
You're doing big things bra. I cant wait to see the dyno numbers with the 5-speed.
Ree-donk-U-lous!
Seen your post on IG and was like what!? This thing is making power fast!

Did some tuning to get the torque up. LOL
This where she will stay for now. Going to enjoy driving the car at its current level

did you spray your moonroof as well?
congrats those are some nice numbers.
Yep I sprayed the roof as well. I like it. I can pop it up without getting roasted by the sun. My friends and I joke about it "Pay for tint? Nah I got bedlined windows" HAHA!
Thanks sir! The car feels great, the tranny is definitely sucking up all that wheel spinning torque though :( I cant wait to ditch the damn thing.
Serious power!! I'm jealous. Congrats. One day I will have a powerful G!! ;)
That second topside pis is sick! Tint the rest of the windows and it would be perfect.
i dont know man i get pissed just trying to add screen protector to my cell phone cause I get a bubble on it lol.
I worked for AT&T and Verizon and always put on screen protectors. I ain't scared!
Man the car looks tough in the first pic! Like how under the hood looks too
I've watched the guys put tint on my cars twice. They use a clear plastic film and put it on the outside of the windows and cut to get the window's shape, then they lay the cut clear over the roll of tint and cut the tint to shape. They use a large piece of lexan on a stand to cut the shape out. The tint isn't sticky, and they spray the windows with a soapy solution to be able to move the tint into place and squeegee the bubbles out. Then they hit it with a heat gun and then it sticks. It looks simple. It took two guys about 30 minutes at a relaxed pace to do all my windows.
Tinting is cake. Back window is a bitch. I did it myself.
First pic is my favorite too. Love this angle of my car. So stout looking!
Yup! Exactly how I saw to do it. Good memory lol. I'm thinking about getting pre cut pieces.
The back window is the one that scares me a little. That is going to have to be spotless.
So because I am OCD I adjusted timing today ever so slightly to maintain consistency under WOT. 13-15* nice smooth climb everytime. If anyone is still on the older version of evoscan and hasnt updated. you need to update! It's sooo sick!

I then finally did the first full 3rd gear pull all the way up to 6k. Freaking glorious! As you can see on the graph. At 4250 rpm the car is just GONE!

Then I took my buddy Mondo for a ride LOL!
edit: also forgot to say that I installed the turbo blanket I found from Ivory today haha
Something cool that was in my plans for this car's build.
My power to weight ratio in my evo x

LEGIT!
I just realized I won car of the month in Ivory Feb 2011......and I'm in the running for car of the month for Feb in The Tumbler. Awww! That's super special to me!

Damn! Almost forgot how sexy Ivory was! lol
Haha thanks brother! I have the calendar up in my man cave and her old license plate right next it so I don't forget
So I'm not the only one who mourns the loss of their first G...I get mushy whenever I see a Titanium Pearl 8G.
Hell no youre not! I saw a clean dover white 8gb the other day and I forgot I was driving for a sec LOL. Its the memories tied to the car that make it hard.
update of the day.....
So today I decided I was going to go take some photos of the car in its current state with the slr and tune fuel trims.

All dialed in.
Went and washed the car and was on the way to one of my favorite shooting spots. All of a sudden on the highway a hawkeye sti and a bugeye wrx pull up super hard on either side of me. wtf?! They wont look at me but I see them starting to brake boost LOL. Took the car from 3k - 4.5k and blew their doors right off LMAO!!!!! I've never let the car rip on the highway. Keep in mind max torque in my car is @4250. I barely got into it LMAO. For the next 10 minutes I was on the highway they stayed about 10 cars back and wouldnt pull up. Tumbler feels amazing on the highway!
Made it to the spot right as it started DUMPING snow. I was going to shoot the exhaust video but it was horrible at the spot :( Decided to wait another day.
^^That is exactly how BabyG acts on the highway. It is such an awesome feeling. I usually dont even to drop down a gear about half throttle in fifth from 60 and she pulls HARD.
Seriously I can see that happening now for real. Less drivetrain loss and boost comes on way faster in higher gears, let alone if you are in peak torque rpm range. Absolutely RIPS!
i know what this needs now: straight cut 1st-4th.
dat colour
dat motor
dat spool
dat whine
would be epic
You and Jigz talking really makes me miss the ole girl and regretting not finishing her out
Matt I'll sell you mine lol. hurry up and 5spd swap marc
Omg I would probably kill that car from the boredom.
Lol oh you dont know how BADLY I want to rev match downshift and go! Auto SUXXXX!
MOAR calculations! We'll see how my elevations and other factors play into this.

First calculate my bhp per tonne.
