Ok,

So My evo.

evo 2

Purchased it off Evolutionary with a blown engine some time ago, just been saving and slowely tinkering with it as we get time.

So far we have:
Brand new 2nd hand crank
New clutch
H-Beams
Ross pistons
ARP screw in studs
whoop di doo bearings
pair of 264/272 ish cams (see how they go)
Had the lot balanced/tested etc
gt25 turbo
stainless manifold
3" exhaust
HKS pod-ish filter
new alternator
new starter motor
new water pump
new harmonic balancer (smaller better one apparently...)
there is more but i cant think at the moment.

Pretty mild setup really, should go ok though... Will chuck an aftermarket ecu in her mid next year when I have some more money again.

As of this weekend, we have an engine in the hole!
Hopefully wont be too long b4 she is back on the road.

[Entaran]

We've got a 91 TP Exec wagon! It's blue and auto!

I'll drag you

[WyDa]

hope ur stopwatch counts past a minute cos we wont be finishing the 1/4 far shy of that . Atleast we could do it on the street and not get done for speeding tho

[CLuTZ]

My one launches ok, i smoked a kia wagon....

lol

[WyDa]

hahah nah, mine has a mass flat spot just over idle, and being idle, it bogs down then slowly shudders off the line

[WyDa]

ITS ALIVE!
the evo is ALIVE!

But it is sleeping currently due to a hole in the radiator core.

Should see the road and re-registered this week

[bazeng]

haha
congrats bud

feels good to get it running hey?

[WyDa]

great feeling. Radiator is sorted, now just gotta sort her out, its running hell rich at idle.

just gotta have a bit of a play, and get the girl back on the road

[AUSVR4]

What are you using to run it?
I'm finding the opposite now. It wants to stay around 15:1 at idle! That's with a Walbro and standard EVO FPR (none of this AFPR crap)
