11.80 @118.57 - 1st Evo into 11's !

Went down to ATCO raceway today to try and break into 11's - finally! (Actually - it only took 3 months to do it so it wasn't that bad)!

The timeslip is posted below.

Today's mission was proving the Pruven Performance intercooler - - it was 95 degrees at the track and humid like crazy so I knew it was going to be real hard to bust out any good numbers in the middle of a heat wave! Amazingly - there was zero heat soak and the heat did not effect my car at all.

Also - today I was testing the Perrin Short Shifter kit - which is a true work of art and helped me bust out some serious quick shifts

My mods - for anyone intersted - are:

Pruven Intercooler kit
Pruven fuel pressure regulator kit
Perrin short shifter
RMR 3" turbo back - intake and intercooler pipe kit
Greddy emamage
HKS EVCV
Quantum Racing exhuast manifold
HKS 264 cams
Zex wet kit - 50 shot
Walbro fuel pump

Amazingly - many items are still stock - which really shows what an amazing car the evo is :

Stock turbo
Stock injectors
Stock block and heads
Stock wheels
Stock CLUTCH!

Big thanks to AMS for getting me the very hard to find HKS cams - super big thanks to Pruven for putting them in so quickly and for helping me out with a super tune - and thanks to Perrin for hooking me up for the biggest secret weapon of them all - the Perrin Short Shifter which I was able to fully adjust to fit my arm throw and which shaved a lot of time off my slow shifts !

BTW the same night I ran this time - which I think is the quickest 1/4 mile time in an Evo VIII in the US right now - my fellow Nanuet, NY Sunday night meet attender Tommy ran his red evo for what appears to be the fastest Evo VIII 1/4 mile time in the US with a trap speed slightly faster than mine in the higher 118's

I can't tell you all what an amazing feeling it is to feel that Evo hooked up on a rail like that - - we wanted to try a few more runs but they threw us off the track for not having a roll cage. I always wanted to go so fast they threw me off had to wait till I got an evo to have that happen!!!

See you all in Ohio - peace

You must be psychic ! Actually - Tommy and I both destroyed out clutches today. Its time for a clutch upgrade for sure. 2nd was slipping very bad and 3rd a bit also. 4th held 100% The smell was very very bad.

There was a video taken - I hope to get in touch tommrow with the guy who took it and get it up
