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

I spoke to Shane/Danny and Michael at ETS and they all said the Evo heads in general didn't really have the lifting head problems the DSM's did...I am not saying the Evo X is better than the 8/9's at that but for sure the DSM's.

Also, AFAIK, the stock X has COP, the 8/9's don't so I guess I assumed it was better I could be wrong...

But Shane said high boost on E85 requires some pretty crazy ignition, he said it won't necessarily break up but boost might go up and power won't he said.

No one on the X has done super high HP on E85 aside from Gates. I wonder if he is on the stock ignition still. He has slowly gotten rid of most stock stuff.
