On a side note, a stock c6 zo6 just went 11.2 @ 127.
That's not too shabby when you can bolt on 100 whp with headers, intake and a cam. 540+ whp.
640whp w/ an agressive cam and porting work.

C6 ZO6 FTW!!
I think the evo, ways a little more than 3200lbs, maybe someone with an EVO or that knows can help?
My car weighs 3280 with me in it and there is no reduction done, 1/2 tank, no spare.

An Evo weighs in at about 3250ish pounds.

crap couplers
Is Bushnuts still supplying that crap truck hose instead of nice silicone couplers? Thats the one thing I hated about my Buschur FMIC. I really dislike how he (his shop/company) charges premium prices and supplies inferior quality. This also relates to the goofy slip flanges on the EVO exhaust system. It doesn't use U-clamps too does it? Thats a semi-joke, I doubt he'd go down to Midas quality ;) My AHP exhaust came with one of those (slip-flanges with the wierd wrap-clamp thing...also designed for semitrucks) and of course it leaked so I drove out to Eau Claire and made Chris Anderson put real flanges on instead.

I wouldn't have bought shit from them if it would have been crap quality. My only complaint is that they supplied worm-drive clamps instead of t-bolt clamps (my buschur 2g fmic came with t-bolts). But so far, everything is holding up just dandy, 22.5 psi pushes daily.

I know their stuff works as proven by 90% (probably an exageration, but lots of people using their stuff) of modded EVO's in this country being outfitted with their products, I just think they could do more in terms of quality considering the price(s) being charged.
When you said "crap couplers" I was just wondering what you meant by that since I too referred to my Bushcur couplers as "crap". I was in no way trying to insult your, or anyone elses, EVO.

I think he is refering to the stock rubber couplers. Not the ones he got with his IC kit.

Oh ok, yeah I think I am understanding that now. I must have misread his post at first.

You bastard! Who would insult the all-mighty evo!?!?! ;)
Yea, I was referring to the stock shit.
Anyone else seen any GT500's around? I wanna hear/see some kill/killed-by stories!
