nice setup. looking good.

Not to sound like a jerk or anything, but do you think that it can actually beat an EVO? Those things are quick with no wheel hop.

Not from a dead stop, but probably from a roll.

Well Let see I am pushing 15 psi which is well over 400hp and EVO 285 hp I have no wheel hop since I have solid motor mounts. I have a 2.1 60 ft which may be .3 sec slower than EVO and not to mention after first gear he gains no more ground The last EVO I raced in the qaurter he ran a 13.6 at 101mph I ran a 13.2 at 107mph with only 12 psi and I had 110mph with bad launches resulting in 13.5's so let try to figure that out on which one faster and on autocross we are very even on shorter track but the longer ones Hands down are not close.

what solid motor mount are you using. Do you have pics?

I took 3/8 thick steel plate that was 3 inches wide and placed it between the mount and the frame. I drilled two holes in the plate and bent the metal strip down to the bolt running through the bushing and drilled a hole there. I passed the bolt through the the bar making the the rear motor mount solid and eliminated my wheel hop. I have the poly insert in the front too. I have no worries of breaking the shafts as much as I use too. I still have tractions problem because the last time I just went full throttle on first gear with my Azenis on the track I smapped the stage2 shaft on boost. So I am still scared of breaking another shaft but the wheels are now smooth when they are burning rubber. Wait till you get your going strong if you are near me which you should you should be able to spin both tires on boost in third gear when it hits boost at 65 mph and gain grip at 75 mph......

real nice engine bay.....hope to see that magic number 12!
