Nice cars! I somehow missed this thread the first time. That Camaro looks beastly. What are your future plans for the Evo?

[STGIIITsi]

I wish my dad was not as old and into cars like me and had a freaking quick turbo car of some type damn that would be SWEET!! Lucky guy you your dad understands having a car that is force fed.

In the future I plan on rebuilding the motor and putting a big turbo on it but thats down the road aways, the port & polish and rebuilding the head took a lot out of the wallet, it needs time to replenish

[turbo dragon]

[Apex i ITR]

Love the progress. Looks great. Wheels def changed the entire look of the car. Still missing a lip of any kind (preferably carbon fiber).

What turbo setup is on it right now?

[turbo dragon]

Thanks, still has a factory IX turbo, and I agree it does need a CF lip, that will come in the near future I hope

[turbo dragon]

Ive been looking at the Rexpeed CF lips, sides, rear, do you think they are a good deal

[turbo dragon]

two from last sundays auto x

[Mr Wong]

your car looks great.

[wanttoevolve]

what size wheel and tire setup is that?

[Sil'vr-boi6]

Ive been looking at the Rexpeed CF lips, sides, rear, do you think they are a good deal

I haven't tried any of the above: however I've taking noticed that most folks who buy sideskirts and rears and up getting rid of them.

Chad had some nice pieces on VIII

airducts on VIII/ IX are always a WIN in my book

**CHIME IN PEOPLE**

[chameleon]

Redridingboost has some CF air ducts for sale I think. That's all I've got .... Can't point you in the direction of any decent priced rexpeed stuff.

[turbo dragon]

I most say, I am very impressed with my Evo and my abilitys to drive it and knowing that I have built it by myself, except for the clutch install and the port & polish work that I had done, I have met all my goals Ive set for myself and the car for this year, I have won a few drag races, auto x's, car shows, and yesterday I ran a 12.7 with a full tank of gas, and today I won this

http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t45/turbodragon/2011-11-20_20-08-21_687.jpg

for all that I have put the Evo through this year and it still be running says a lot, I will never get rid of her, but after this weekend Im putting her down for some upgrades and much needed RnR, maybe she will be ready for IS next year lol

[evo_xtatic]

Gratz man! Definitely making the best outta what you've been given! Way to go in making your goals, then taking the effort to meet them. Job well done.

[redridingboost]

Great Man !!!

[turbo dragon]

Thanks guys, next year im going to push for 10s in the 1/4 lol

[kaquino]

Thanks guys, next year im going to push for 10s in the 1/4 lol

[BlewByYouEvoVIII]

Awesome! Way to go dude. Car looks great :)

[turbo dragon]

thanks Blew

heres a few vids of the dec, 18 2011 auto x, one of them the rear started to get away from me and I knew I couldnt get it back on course, and since I had my friends girl friend riding with me I decided to play a little lol. the other I tried to drift the turn and keep going but I was going to hit another cone so I let out of it, trying to practice up so I can give ken block a run for his money lol

[Sil'vr-boi6]

Awesome vid. Keep it up. I did some drifting myself this weekend.

[turbo dragon]

Awesome, did you get some Vids of it

[GoBoost]

What's the blue car behind yours at the start of the videos?

[turbo dragon]

thats a WRX, but it didnt run, it belongs to a guy name Jay that usually wins time of day in anything he races in lol

[Chemwarrior]

Are you talking about Jay Parcon? If so then yes he is fast as shit. I would suggest the Evolution Driving School if they ever make it down your way.

[Apex i ITR]

Suhwheet. LOL. Looked like a blast.

[turbo dragon]

Suhwheet. LOL. Looked like a blast.

thanks, it was, last month I did a perfect drift on one of the long sweeping turns and no one got any pics or vids, so this months event I figured I would got out a play a little and have a friend video it lol
