That's my plan, but after all these years I've learned that a 1G is a drag car nothing else, I'll throw a rear sway bar because it made the car a million times better but only brought it up to a level where most stock cars are.
I still want to get an evo to do auto-x, ice racing, and anything for turning.
It sounds like you have realistic, achieveable goals.
Car looks good man! I say definitely do a baseline dyno @ DB, would be very interesting to see what a red makes on stock 8 cams, and what the curve looks like!

What he means is, you guys are getting evo 8s and they are lame now so he doesn't care to keep track of who has what. lol
Not at all! I love all of these cars and hold them near and dear to my heart. The details just get fuzzy sometimes, even if I have personally wrenched on them.

I was up in Rogers for work and stopped by DB. Car made 336 which was the best out of 3 pulls. Car was saying the timing wasn't super conservative and it was running 32 peak psi falling to 24. Shane was able to show me a little bit and was able to turn off my bad 02 sensors so I actually see a crusing afr of 14.5ish instead of the 10.8 i was used to. Shane is the man! Can't wait to install the cams and go back and see if it makes much of a difference. I forgot the dyno sheets at the shop i think though so this video will have to do
Thanks again for taking time out of your busy day to help explain things to me Shane!
Badass! Cams should get you to 350whp pretty easy, which is IMHO right around the most fun power level in these cars per dollar spent. I ran my evo8 for a looong time right around there and it was a freaking blast!

Yea I'm hoping I can be happy with it after the cams. After being at DB for a while I start to get bad ideas in my head on what I should do to the car I'm hoping the cams maybe bring up the top end a bit so it doesn't feel like it just falls on its face.
