10sec Evo VIII detail!

[tripperfx3]

This is my buddy's car that I did when I went back to GA. This is the 1st time using my UDM and Menz polishes EVER along with this being my highest paying job so far lol. I don't have any before pics and these were taken by him about a week to a week and a half after I detailed and he had just gotten his new Advan wheels! The car was a WRECK!!! It hadn't been detailed since I did it by hand over a year ago and had just seen coin-op washes.

The car is running heavy upgrades including a larger turbo. I won't give away the parts as im not sure if he wants me too or not, but it made over 400 AWHP on a DynoDynamics Dyno (equates to close to 475-500 AWHP on a Dynojet). Its also got a JDM Evo IX front bumper and JDM Evo IX rear bumper.

Process:
Coin-op wash (stupid water ban in GA...)
Simple Green on wheels and degrease engine (not the ones that are on there now)
Clay w/ Adams clay and Megs QD
Menz IP w/ UDM LC orange
Menz FP w/ UDM LC white
Menz FG w/ UDM LC black or blue (can't remember)
Collinite 845s

that is a nice blue... my fav color. looks like a pool, love the way collinite reflects light

[Smokindiesel]

Looks sick! ... But to pull those times with mid 400's ... He must be one hell of a driver ... or he didn't hit 10's

[tripperfx3]

Evo's will run high 11's all day long with what im putting down with a good launch. He's putting down close to 200hp more than me and well within the 10sec range and he's a hell of a good launcher. Let put it this way... He beat a 2.2 Kenne Bell Cobra by 2-3 cars :righton:

Thanks for the comments guys! I think im doing pretty good for only having done his car and my car. I'm hoping I can start a good part-time business to get though college. I've really only got one steady customer here and he's got his Evo and his SUV Benz that I do. Also whenever I go home (GA) I have a few cars I can do.

Beautiful color and real nice detail. Good luck with your new side career.

Car looks good. I'll keep my comments to myself about a 400hp car running 10's!

lol Its just because you don't like a 4 banger keeping up with/beating you :p jk! I know it seems crazy, but with the tires he's got and a good launch its more than possible. Also hes in the upper 400's. Most people like Dynojet numbers as they are higher, but he was tuned/dyno'd on a DynoDynamics which gives lower numbers. Like i said 400hp on a DynoDynamics is very close to 475hp on a dynojet. Its a 15-20% difference between the 2 dynos.

[Lasthope05]

Very nice work..but to those numbers are kinda weak.... and im not sure about those 10sec passes ....

Off topic but I know lots of people with those numbers only running mid 11s.

V8's ftw!...haha 4 bangers are cool too..

[zaxjax]

Details are great only with pics, and 1/4 mile claims are only good with time slips. There are many people here that have high horsepower cars, and know a thing about cars. Try not playing us like fools.


My 600 hp Whippled Cobra only sees 4 bangers in the rear view mirror!

The car is running heavy upgrades including a larger turbo. I won't give away the parts as im not sure if he wants me too or not, but it made over 400 AWHP on a DynoDynamics Dyno (equates to close to 475-500 AWHP on a Dynojet).

I would think he would be concerned with you revealing his power level versus his parts list! :D Either way, the car looks good.

[tripperfx3]

Thanks for all the comments guys. Unfortunately I don't have his time slips, but here is a review of the turbo from Buschur's website with the average quarter mile time with the 20G-9-LT turbo. :D

This is the NEWEST addition to the true bolt-on turbo upgrades for your Mitsubishi Evolution. After alot of time in R&D we are proud to release the 20G-9LT (aka: the Evo Green) turbo. With close to stock like spool up this turbo uses a 69mm 5-bladed compressor wheel and flows 47lbs. air per minute. This turbo has put down some impressive times already. On a full street trim Evolution with street tires it ran a best time of 10.8@128mph.

[Lasthope05]

He'll be hard pressed to make over 450whp with a 20g that only flows 47 lbs...

Ill smoke you ZAXJAX!!!:p....From a dig..:D.haha but you'll get me top end...maybe.

[zaxjax]

Racing from a dig is for girls! Line'em up and see if you can do wheel stands!

[lethalxls1]

I am no expert but those cars are pretty light right? I figured a little car like that might run high tens with 450 HP? I dunno. I think you guys are failing to recognize how much the wing adds to that.
hahahahha!

[tripperfx3]

Hey now! Don't be dissin the wing! lol The 03 Evos are pretty light and weigh around 3100-3200lbs. Hes already making over 450 (475 on a Dynojet). It just depends on the dyno. I think he's got a dyno graph posted on one of the Evo forums. Ill try to find it.
