Makeing da evo a 10 sec car?
Hey whats up peepz. Oh yeah... cant wait until the evo 7 comes to the states. See the thing is most of my car crew buddys drive a wrx. They hate the fact the the evil evo 7 is comeing to town. The fastest runner right now is my friend Ricky who runs 11 sec through the 1/4 with his Wrx. I told him that i'll be runing tens with the 10k i have saved up for the evo. Of course i was Bs'ing. So, my evilevo friends i need your help.!!! Am i right? Oh and my motto....."Drive a wrx and get no sex" "Drive a evo and you'll be the cunevil"
put a 20G turbo no problem you would kill them all

It will take a lot more than $10,000 to make an Evo run the quarter mile in under 11 seconds.
You'll have to buy and install (incomplete list)
- tires
- suspension
- twin or triple plate clutch
- stroker kit
- big turbo kit
- fuel pump and lines
- injectors
- intake manifold
- complete exhaust system
- big multilayer I/C
- multilayer radiator
- ECU
With that setup and a lot more (diffs, custom parts, etc.), our Swedish friend Jocce runs something like 10.9s.
You may want to think about nitrous oxide or propane or whatever injection to make it seriously fast.
Having said that, I think you can make any POS car go fast with enough mods and money. The purpose of an Evo is to go fast around corners, not fast in straight lines, if you know what I mean. Which does in no way mean you shouldnt mod it, well on the contrary, but I personally like to keep cars within their intended purpose (rally, autoX)

That and we're almost definitely not getting the VII. Nothing personal, but I don't think you're gonna catch your friend's rex without a good bit more money invested if he's as fast as you say. And as Claud said...It's not really built to be a straight line car. If the wheel ain't turned then you're not seeing the car's potential.

Or you can just do what super street did to a Sentra SE-R. they made it run 13.4 with only an intake. want to know how?....
no doors, no seats except the drivers seat, no trunk lid, no carpet, no A/C, no stereo, no vents, no console, no dash, no airbags, well...you get the idea?? they made it like 1,200 pounds compared to the stock weight of i dunno what..but its like 3,400. taking everying off the evo should produce the same results, and it doesn't cost anything
so then people can ask what you got in your 10 sec evo ...and you say nothing!
i also think the trap speed was like around 80 mph or something really slow, because it was just sooo light.

i can't wait to see some one do that to an Evo.

If you set-up a EVO for drag then you are gonna miss the real fun of the car!! Drag is fun...don't get me wrong but circuit or even off-road dirt track racing is where you really get see the car awesome potential!! Remember in a straight line nothing can replace displacement but add few hairpins, decline turns thats when the plams really begin to sweat

An EVO specialist here tuned their drag race-spec EVO6 to a 10 something car. 469HP and 387lb/ft at the wheels
Best time (quarter mile): 10.97 secs at 125.90 MPH
Top Speed: 304Km/h at 9200rpm - THESE ARE OLD STATS, THE LAST TIME I CHECKED, THE POWER INCREASED TO 523HP AT THE WHEELS.

So yea... 10k worth of stuff
Except for maybe the ECU, not sure of the differences between the evo and dsm ecu, but most people dont ever change the ECU.

most people use an apexi S-AFC to tune a car (DSM) here in america... i cant name any people that have done an ecu swap... but i'm sure there is...
I guess people use the ecu upgrade to get rid of fuel cut on evos?

You need an ECU to precisely adjust the fuelling and ignition advance. An S-AFC can help adjust the fuelling, but only every 1000 rpms. A good ECU can do that every 300 - 100 rpms.
You can do without internal engine mods, but you wont be able to put out over 380 bhp with a standard turbo. There are people running much more power with bigger turbos without internal mods. And there are people breaking rods and throwing pistons...
You can get rid of fuel cuts on an Evo by increasing the base fuel pressure and lowering the S-AFC values. You HAVE TO monitor your lambda with a wideband lambda sensor when you do that.

Claudius is right...1G DSM engines are plentiful...do you really want run higher boost without internal mods...especially with EVO engine???... you blow 1G engine..it shouldn't be that hard to find a replacement block....you blow EVO engine...how easy it is gonna be to find another replacment?? Building a10-sec takes time, patience, dedication and money...if wanna do right Short cuts save you time and money yes...but 9 times out 10...you end up paying for in the long run
Try sticking to Auto-x (I think that's what you call it in US) run a EVO w/ 330~370bhp (achievable with min. costs) it's fun, challeging, and doesn't hit the pocket as hard Besides, like I said before use EVO as drag car is fun...but you gonna miss over half of what the car is REALLY capable of 
PEACE

ishi - my thoughts exactly
Evos, WRX, Supras, RX7s, 300ZXs, 350Zs, MR2s, etc etc etc - these cars where not built for the drag strip, yet that is the first test, and most important figure everyone seems to talk about. all of these cars are excellent, world class road and track cars. sure they can be made to do 12s, 11s and lower, but that is only part of the equasion.
my fd isn't the fastest thing on the block, but anytime anyone gives me **** about running low 13s/high 12s is "lets do some twisties" - argument is over.
if you want a drag car, get yourself a 89 mustang LX 5.0 - put in a windsor 5.8 (or big block) and 9" rear. you can go as fast as you can get fuel & air into the motor, and you can do it on a small budget.
my 2 cents
