Yellow Evo In Wayzata Area

[slowbubblecar]

Anyone know of a yellow evo that cruises around wayzata Mitsu? On the way home, the Hopkins organized street racing clan ,HOSRC,(remy, Iceman, 92gstex, 92tsiawd84 and I) found an evo on 12 heading towards 494. We tryed racing him but it didn't seem like he wanted to race. All of a sudden, he floors it. Remy and I, driving next to him, took off after. He pulled ahead a little until my turbo started spooling and I started pulling on him. Once noticing, he grabbed the brakes. He slowed down to 40 on 12/394 (speed limit 65) and pulled over quickly behind the montero. Todd, standing out the Montero's moonroof, was trying to waive him over to race us as we were going slow also. Instead, he remained on the bumper of the montero going 40 and exited a few blocks after.
Cant wait until I get a logger and can tune this car, I am running rich.

Which turbo are you running? 20G or 60trim?

20g. His car is a laggy bitch now. Now his car is a top end car. Boost doesn't build till over 5000.

i bet the evo owner was just driving home from work only to have you guys confuse him/scare him... lol, i think him flooring it was an act of desperation. lol, i dont know

I walked an EVO about a month ago pretty well. running 17psi

I matched his acceleration with the car in 5th and then we went at it again and I put it in 3rd and that's when I walked him.

both were from a 55mph roll.

Either he has a 1.6l Honda or he has a serious problem if he is not building boost until 5k with a 20g! He should see full boost by 3800. Does he have a major exhaust leak before the turbo or is his wastegate stuck partially open?

when I get a logger and can tune, I will up the boost and lean it out more. I should have no problem walking him than. Looking at bartons old setings, he was running 3 more psi and was leaner than I am.

there is defenitly an exhaust leak but I think it is after the turbo. Mike adjusted the wastegate before I put it on. It has a 10 cm housing though. THe exhaust leak makes it sound completely different than before.

[SlowWhite]

what did he have to adjust to the waiste gate?

I got full spool at 4100rpms (but I have HKS Cams) so figure on stock cams that should be a few 100 rpms less.

Definetely do a boost leak test - car was dyno'd and then drove for 2-3 days when my rear diff seal failed. And then the turbo was taken off. And if I remember correctly even on the dyno full spool was around 4100rpms?

he thought the wastegate was out/in to far I think. I don't remember though.
