OK guys, I need some help.......
Today my cousin met up with some guy that owns an Evo VIII. This guy in this Evo VIII came speeding by the Baskin Robbins that his girl friend works at. So what does my cousin do???????? He calls him over. And what does he do, He tells him his car is slow and that he has a cousin (Me) that has a Eclipse GSX that will own his ass. The guy and his passenger laugh it off and begin to talk massive shit on my car, and saying about how he would smoke ANY GSX! So my cousin calls me on the phone.
ME: Whats up Brandon Brandon: Hey Red(it's what he calls me), There's this Evo up here that thinks he's fast. ME: Ok......... Brandon: And he's talking mad shit on your car man. He's saying that he'll smoke the shit of you! ME: (thinking to myself, what the hell? how did I get into any of this?) Oh He does, whats he running? Brandon: I dont know, he won't pop his hood. But he says he's stock with 30psi behind him. ME: WHAT THE FUCK! He's running 30psi on the stock turbo and fuel setup. AND ON THE STOCK AIR FLOW SYSTEM?? Brandon: He still has the stock Front Mount, but he's not popping his hood. Me: Ok, ask him what turbo setup he's running. I hear Brandon and the guy talking in the background. The guy sounds like a Idiot. Brandon: He says he's running a Turbonetics Stage 3 turbo. ME: WTF? What size turbo is he running Brandon: (asks the guy) He said Stage 3. ME: I hate when people dont know what turbo there running, ok well what else can you see in the car? Look in the car, do you see a boost controller? Brandon: Nope don't see a boost controller, Guy with Evo: I dont run the mechanical boost controllers, they're not accurate. ME: Ok so he's on a manual boost controller under his hood.... Brandon: Oh yeah, and he has a modified exhaust. Guy with Evo: Tell him that it runs 11.2's ME: I heard him brandon...... hmmmm. well I took my car into the body shop to get that scratch they made fixed. I get it back tomarrow so I can't come down today. Brandon: Oh I see, (talks to the guys) Well they said they can come back up here tomarrow to meet you and race. ME: Hmmmmm ok, We'll see tomarrow, I'll talk to you tomarrow Brandon: Ok, They pulled out cash man, I think they wanna run for money. ME: Oh they do huh? Well if so, I'm gonna have to look under there hood before I run for money. Brandon: Ok, But I saw him pushing it, and it didn't see to move that fast, About as fast as that one EVO you killed on Baker street. ME: Damn, really? I killed his ass and I only had exhaust and a downpipe (he couldn't launch.... never was able to catch up) Brandon: Yeah man, it didn't even seem fast at all. ME: OK, talk to you later man: Brandon: OK see you tomarrow Ok so now my cousin has set me up with a race..... like he ALWAYS DOES! First thing I did after I talked to Brandon, was got on the internet to find some information on the "Stage 3" turbonetics turbo......... Searched and searched...... no information found. Well I need you guy's help before I go race this guy. Do you think this is possible? What the hell is this STAGE 3 TURBO? and is 30psi possible on it? And what about on stock fuel, airflow, and ecu. And remember we're in california, is this possible on puny 91 octane gasoline? And what about this 11.2 run......? What do you guys think about this supposed EVO?

the record for the highest output for a stock turbo was 437whp. it had larger injectors, a safc II, they had a custom ecu reflash ( which also raises boost ) turbo back exhuast, and with a mix of c16 and 93 octane fuel running 28 psi. this is with the stock air flow meter, plus stock EVO's comes with pretty decent size injectors, they come with 550cc's so they don't run out of fuel until 350whp.

well its pointless for him to run the stock fuel system if he is runng the "stage 3 turbo" since the stock turbo is as i have shown is sufficient enough to max out the stock fuel system. if he had that turbo he wouldn't gain much. since power is only relavent to air flow and fuel. without enough fuel he will run dangerously lean and cause alot of heat and have potential knocking problems. however there is a quick fix for that. its called alcohol injection. by doing a alcohol injection kit, it will effectivly cool off all your intake charge and raise your octane level to that near c16 race gas. this will allow him to temporary run 30 psi. but the thing is 30 psi on a "stage 3 turbo" is not the same as 30 psi on the stock 16G. it will flow a whole shit load more air, plus it would have to be a pretty damn big turbo to be able to hold 30 psi effectivly to redline without droping.
the story sounds fishy but you will never know. he's either not telling you the whole story or is telling you bullshit storys or his car is just pure bullshit all together and that you gotta tell your cousin to stop getting you into these situations.

Re: OK guys, I need some help.......
tell him you will race him for $20 without lookin under his hood. kinda half ass race him and see if you can beat him. If u can, up it to $200 and make your money back. If not it cost you $20 to see how he runs.

IMO, the Evo guy sounds fishy as previously stated. But definitely sounds like a good match up...

90% of time in a "race" neither car is real and in that 10% of time they are the race doesn't happen for some stupid reason. Isn't this the racing story area then question is where is the race or anything about a race that occured ? there is no race! Post sucks if you guys want to suck an E stranger off and send mad E props to his misplaced and crap post be my guest just stop gettting your panites bunched up when someone doesn't want this forum being more lax and sucky then its currently allowed. It's pretty sad when "regs" get bitched at for trying to keep the peace and ironic as you can't take a little egging from making a mistake yet cry how its no fun to post when your the one bringing it on yourself. |
