Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

I should go back to my crazy idea I had like two years ago..Nitrous wet kit the evo!

I have always wanted to try a 50 shot on the evo, that on top of this would make this car really fun on the street haha.

You've got a built motor, throw a 100 shot at that bitch!

[Murlo26]

I am more worried about breaking the trans/diffs than anything haha. another 100 torks would be ouch time I think for rear diff. Unless I just leave these tires on there and spin them and smoke show that shit.

I need a mullet, so I can do that.

On bikes guys use controllers to progressively up the shot as they go down the track. Bet you could use a controller to progressively up the shot to start at a 50 shot then progress to a 100 shot once that power/tq starts dropping off. Just throwing ideas out there.

Nitrous is fun and can be pretty safe when setup right.

I am moving to an exedy triple clutch this year hopefully, then a surge tank then I will look at possible power adders. I was considering just a window switch as Shane and I discussed way back when which seemed like it made sense.

I doubt I will get to adding it this year, maybe next year though.

I'd also like to get track wheels/tires and move to smaller brakes to fit slicks.

I want this thing in the 10's and it has been done on a stock turbo with less power/torque than I have on the stock motor, so time to try :)

April 18. First track day at Rock Falls if the weather cooperates. Get-r-done!

I am not sure how my ACT 6 puck will hold up but I'd be willing to try! Lately mine feels very "chunky", trying to feather and all and it almost shakes and goes crazy sometimes. It's very inconsistent right now, guessing its time for a new clutch. But again, I would certainly try and launch it still and see what happens.

*Insert $.0005 accountants thought* Maybe try bleeding it? Seems weird to me to have inconsistent clutch like that unless the pressure plate is fucked up. Would think if the disc is fucked it'd more consistently inconsistent

[Murlo26]

It's extremely consistent except if I try to feather uphill from a stop, then it almost shakes.

Otherwise if it doesn't see that much load and its more of a just go thing it is fine.

I guess I was thinking its probably just uneven wear on teh disc that is causing it.
