sadly the stealth laid down the night before the 3000/Stealth nationals after making some 127mph passes on 93 octane. I suspect it dropped a valve but haven't taken the head off yet...I'm a bit disgusted with it at the moment and have turned my attention back to the EVO. I ended up taking the EVO to the 3/S nationals instead and had the fastest car there even with the bum exedy twin HD that was dragging making shifts terribly slow lol

Just finished reading all 38 pages...WOW...awesome build/write-up. I have a BMW135i with mods and reading this makes me want an Evo so bad.  A quick question though...how many miles from start to current on her? About how many miles for each "stage"? Overall thoughts and would you have changed anything if you could? Thanks and look forward to checking back for updates.

I'm glad you found it helpful.
I bought it with 14k miles and now it has 44k
no idea about miles at each stage...I didn't spend much time at each because I was constantly improving the car. You could probably figure it out by looking at post dates.
regrets:
1) start with 1000cc or 1200cc injectors instead of the various sizes
2) skip the green, it was a 30-35hp gain over stock, the red wasn't available back then. I'd go with the 35R again but .82 instead of .63
that's all I can think of, I've been happy with my other choices.

oops, totally forgot to order a replacment oil pump to go with the new waterpump, timing tensioner and kevlar timing belt so I've got that on the way from mentor mitsu 194 shipped and in stock.
I called BR for an update on the shorty/head and spoke with Jarrod, he said they refuse to sell it to me.... I'm kidding, he's checking on it and will call me back.
