I still want to get an evo to do auto-x, ice racing, and anything for turning.
It sounds like you have realistic, achieveable goals.

Are you sticking to pump gas?

I gotcah, and that makes sense! They are pretty fun cars for a daily driver with 4 doors.

It is actually already tuned on e85 from the previous owner. It gets absolute shit for mileage at like 11-13 so I'm hoping that'll get a little bit better once I get a tune from Shane.

That's gross, since its your daily maybe a lean burn tune is in order?

We should dyno the car before you do the cams so we can see what it's making now.

Shane sounds bored. I say go for it.

^I was there yesterday, I don't think he board and by the barrage of people trying to bring cars in doesn't look like he will be for a while.

Get a baseline! Its awesome to have, i need to get one soon on my POS.

Re: '03 BBY Evo
 
Car looks good man! I say definitely do a baseline dyno @ DB, would be very interesting to see what a red makes on stock 8 cams, and what the curve looks like!

C3L1CA 02-25-2011 01:48 PM

Re: '03 BBY Evo
 
That'd be awesome if I could get a baseline on the car. Shane is the man!

I only have a stock evo8 turbo though Scheides, I think you're thinking of hill. Maybe he has the red?

Re: '03 BBY Evo
 
I was about to say, WTF you got a red!

Hill has one.

My bad, so many old guys with new evo projects, I can't keep them straight! Still worthwhile IMHO.

The cams probably won't do as much on a stock turbo E85 car as it does on a pump gas stock turbo car though.

Enough to make it worth it?

What he means is, you guys are getting evo 8s and they are lame now so he doesn't care to keep track of who has what. lol :2strangle: :beer::loser::draught2:

Not at all! I love all of these cars and hold them near and dear to my heart. The details just get fuzzy sometimes, even if I have personally wrenched on them.

Hopefully. It will help more though if you get a bigger turbo.

I was up in Rogers for work and stopped by DB. Car made 336 which was the best out of 3 pulls. Car was saying the timing wasn't super conservative and it was running 32 peak psi falling to 24. Shane was able to show me a little bit and was able to turn off my bad 02 sensors so I actually see a crusing afr of 14.5ish instead of the 10.8 i was used to. Shane is the man! Can't wait to install the cams and go back and see if it makes much of a difference. I forgot the dyno sheets at the shop i think though so this video will have to do ;)

Thanks again for taking time out of your busy day to help explain things to me Shane!

Badass! Cams should get you to 350whp pretty easy, which is IMHO right around the most fun power level in these cars per dollar spent. I ran my evo8 for a looong time right around there and it was a freaking blast!

seen, yes I chris I SEEN this car on the rollers today and sure does look good!

Those sound like some healthy numbers for a stock turbo/cams/intercooler VIII. Very nice!

Yea I'm hoping I can be happy with it after the cams. After being at DB for a while I start to get bad ideas in my head on what I should do to the car:nod: I'm hoping the cams maybe bring up the top end a bit so it doesn't feel like it just falls on its face.

Thanks Nate! Can't wait to see what your car does next year.
