If the evo punched it, it woulda dropped in the rear a bit.

Zero chance that evo was pushing hard.

im sure the evo missed a gear in the first race, you see him look down!

my mate in NZ had a VTi-R with every bolt on imaginable, with 100hp hit of nos, there wasnt much that could catch it on the fly. He also had a stock ecu and stock internals, and that was only a 1.8.

Probably not bs. Those K-swapped EG's are really quick, especially from a roll. I believe that with the swap alone that car should be low 13s, and that's fwd mind you! From a roll they're even nastier, which of course would be to the Evo's disadvantage. The first race however didn't even look like the evo was trying though, the second time from a roll was a bit more realistic. I'm not sure if the Evo indeed was racing on 22psi though, but even if it were it would be pretty close. I mean look at it for what it is!!! A light as hell old Honda with a big-buck motor swap racing what appears to be a stock Evo from a roll... I think I'm gonna go Honda hunting pretty soon :twisted:

That EVO's not running 21 PSI, thats 1.5 Bar, which mine runs, that EVO doesn't even look if it's on boost, & from a roll that would want to be one very quick Honda, if the EVO was in fact running 21 PSI its about a mid to high 12 sec car.

the evo was prolly stock vs that eg..

but those civics are quick!.. around 1000kg... and with that engine the power to weight ratio would be insane!

i think 22psi on an evo would be at least a 12 low to flat time.. i did power to weight ratio on a stock evo and the eg civic with the k20 and the honda has the better ratio.. but once you put in the 22psi doesn't look possible..

Heh, I'm not sure upping the boost to 22psi would drop a whole second plus off an Evo's 1/4 :?

I'd have to agree with you there SS, dont E8's run 19psi stock anyway?

Couldnt see 3psi bringing then down a second

there's one eg in NSW.. with the k20A swap.. and it ran 12's with only intake and exhuast.
