Not sure on miles but not many lol. The game plan is to hit 550+whp and have the transmission stay together so he can road race it. The current highest horsepower MR is just over 400whp in Singapore as the transmissions have issues beyond that...

You guys should really get in touch with Kiggly about some good advice about how to keep that trans together. The amount of info i've seen him produce on the dsm autos is nothing short of amazing. Where he has found weaknesses he has made new parts.

It probably helps that he's a mech engineer with an automotive background.

So is this thing going to be set up for drag or auto-x?

Re: MAPerformance Evo X MR Project / Goal: World's Most Powerful Evo X MR

Well, it's an evo, so it can probably do both fairly well.

Re: MAPerformance Evo X MR Project / Goal: World's Most Powerful Evo X MR

It will be more for Road Race / Auto-X but will hold its own on the drag strip I'm sure ;)

We've had great luck with BC in our DSM applications and although their Evo 8/9 applications have received some negative reviews we are confident that these camshafts will help us obtain our goals :)

See you there saturday. If you PM slowbubblecar we may be able to get a discount if we show up as a group. More that 5 cars is 10% off, we may have 5 or more going. Not sure what has to happen for the discount though. Look forward to seeing it in action. Any idea on what HP range it will have?

I really dig the valve cover. That cover is a real weak spot for the underhood cosmetics on the X. I bought a new engine cover but then you can't see anything.

We ran into yet another snag that requires a special order OEM part lol, we should hopefully have some results soon though as it has fired up and runs great!
