Unless you plan to make it a drag only car, I think you should consider a stroker instead of the built 2.0. Otherwise, everything looks great.

That helps, but my sentiment still remains. If you only plan to drive it in the 7k-9k powerband, then I think it's a perfect setup, but if you want to do more with it (cruising, road racing, autocrossing, etc.), then a stroker might be better. Either way, the car will make great power - just in different RPM ranges.

Who are you to say you dont even have a 35r or a built 2.0 motor.

Dont think you know everything about his setup from just reading post that where posted about this topic in the past. You have no clue. Like i said before stick to what you know.




Staying on topic are you going to reflash the stock ecu or go with a aem.

Not sure why you're freaking out. My comments are on par with what is common knowledge. To say I have no clue is just an insult that does nothing to help this thread. I have complimented him on his choices and am just providing him food for thought. No idea why all you want to do is insult me instead of help the situation. If you think a GT35R on a built 2.0 is very useful for things other than drag racing, then provide that information instead of just trying to bash my helpful comments. Is there something wrong with suggesting a stroker motor from the same company for relatively the same price? I don't understand your animosity.

Cuban Evo, you haven't answered yet on what you intend to do with the car...

He probably intends to drive it. Most likely on some kind of road.

Ok, well at least consider it. I think with the stroker, it will be MUCH more fun for street driving. For drag, the 2.0 will give the most potential.

LP, your comment wasn't helpful either.

I surprised that you wouldn't go with the AEM EMS since:

1. It appears you are willing to spend a good amount of money and the EMS would allow you to maximize your setup.

2. Multiple maps for pump, alky+pump, and race gas. I'm not to familiar with the Jestr flash, but with the AEM all you would need to do is upload you particular map.

3. While I have heard people complain about having the AEM on a daily driven car; you clearly state that your Evo is not daily driven.

I agree with Warrtalon.

For an extra $500.00 you'd be getting much quicker spool and more torque = much more comfortable to drive on the street.
