Don't know. I can tell you about an H-beam 2.3 Evo with a lightened and balanced crank here in the next few months

I stopped at an FP Red because of my 6 speed...even though it's a Shep 6 speed.

It's either rebuild my exedy twin or go to this, I just need to know which one shifts better at high rpms... I wait for feedback!

PM me with any questions. The single should not exhibit high-speed lock out issues. THe owner of SpeedSport assured me of this, and a local Time Attack winner in Modified AWD has the single carbon/carbon on his car.

I daily drive mine, making 500whp on a built motor and FP red. Only running e85. Its my only car right now, I am looking into getting a side car. Whats not so convenient about driving this thing is oil changes need to be done every 1500-2000 miles and running on only e85 gets me about 140-150 miles a tank. Coilovers also make it a bumpy ride, but other than that, the comfort from the recaros and the space it provides still makes the car a daily.

I am interested to know if other evo owners dailying 500+ have other issues like certain parts or sensors failing.

Yea that's what I'm really interested in cause if the tune is awesome than internals should be ok for awhile! But I'm wondering what really goes wrong and what to look forward to!
