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

Woot! Although it looks like its hovering about 1.5" over it's rightful resting place? :) :). Pleeease ask for springs for Xmas, we'll put them in at my place.

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

The 4x4 is home!

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

Ummm, yes? ;)
I went offroading last night!

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

How's it feel to be back in it? Does it run fairly smooth or is the base tune pretty rough?

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

Well emotionally it feels unbelievable!

Driving wise, pretty surprising actually. It is very smooth. The new CMC seems to engage the clutch awfully high right now, taking some getting used to for sure and Danny was trying to adjust it when i picked it up yesterday as he noticed something similar i assume. The tranny is super precise and I would venture that is because of the AMS front motor mount...it just seems to lock into gear now perfectly...at low rpm easy shifting anyway.

However if you don't give enough gas or miss shift even a little the car will let you know (again because of the AMS i assume)...it is a pretty violent shutter, lol.

Idle is pretty crazy right now with the cams and the new intake...Shane said the intake wasn't scaled perfect just yet. But just cruising around it feels amazing.

Congrats, I'll be looking out for you now since you don't drive something that everyone else has, like a honda. lol

Get springs in due time, screw scheides and his never ending pit of modding. :wink:

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

Did you get the AMS 70A? I'm in the process of trying to find someone to make me a 60A.

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

Yes, the 70A one.

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

I got a flu shot today and have run a fever since. Maybe you could try that one. Lol

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

I swear flu shots make more people sick than they prevent from getting sick...hence why I don't get them. Great excuse though, use it!

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

Just called in sick :( I really feel like poo now and didn't get my flu shot yet, thats next week at work, they bring someone in to do it. But now i get to hang out on the dyno all day feeling like shet but maybe some good numbers will make me all better.

I think i got sick from traveling...air planes suck for getting sick.

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

^ good luck on the dyno! There is a bad cold going around it seems, I had one last week. They bring someone in to give us flu shots as well its really nice to not have to go out and get one. I havent gotten sick from one yet!

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

Keep us updated as progress is made today!

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

Actually if I can fight it...this one stays under wraps until after tomorrow's dyno day at MAP :)

I may post a few teasers though. :D

But just in case the chance in hell happens tomorrow where I get to be name dat power I can't release numbers.

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

You won't be so just post the numbers good luck today.

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

Not with that attitude I won't:)
