I pretty sure it was 116 octane. It was about 75 degrees with almost no humidity at sea level. The difference between corrected and not corrected were about 1 horsepower, so conditions were near perfect. I would imagine at 20 psi with pump gas he would have made somewhere in the mid 400's. The turbo kit made roughly 15 horsepower per pound of boost after 20 psi. We possibly could have made more but it was getting late and the tune was also conservative. It seems that could actually be a street turbo kit, however I have not driven it yet. I will let you know when we get a chance for a nice street drive. I'm also sure Al will post his 1/4 mile times as soon as he gets a chance to get to the track. For all those interested, I think that AMS has the same kit with a little bit bigger of a turbo, can't wait to test that one out. We might actually be putting an HKS V-pro on his car shortly. I'll keep you all updated on that too.

Were you running pump gas or race? Does the EVO have internals or major head work done? Also, why do you choose mph rather than rpm on the dyno?
BTW, I'm pretty jealous! Nice work!

Sorry, was that dyno run at only 20psi??? What internal mods were done to hold the engine together? Just wow, that is some unbeliveable power. Congrats!

It was a little more than 30 psi on 116 octane. The motor is completly built. So is the head. The reason we are using the dyno graph against mph is because we did not hook up our tach signal, it was late and we didn't want to make things more complicated. If we did, we would have been able to give you a torque number too. Oh well, next time.

Is the transmission and transfer case stock?

I'm wondering how they're holding up.

What clutch are you using?

Great numbers

Hey Jerastan, Since you had the BR kit and now the AMS kit, how do you compare them, spool, power etc. Sorry for the off topic...
