The motor is gorgeous, but you are crazy for ditching the full race kit!

The car made 77 more awhp and 136 more awtq on the same 35r with the Virtual Works IC, Intake, Turbo manifold and piping. I'd have been crazy to KEEP the Full Race kit.

wow...what a car, you should have robispec do the suspension settings(his work is impeccable or so I have read)

how is it having a fast awd car vs a faster rwd car that doesn't get traction as easily? which is more fun for you?


endless bbk is sooo baller, I wonder how it compares in performance to apracing/brembo/alcon/stoptech


that is crazy about how much power was picked up from switching to vw parts vs fullrace, that is some overpriced stuff imho..it's good but not worth NEARLY the money fanbois pay for it

I hear nothing but great things about Robispec that's for sure. I'm not sure I really need that type of suspension though. I've had the car scaled and dialed in as it sits and it's really 99.9% a street car.

I have a twin turbo Gallardo as well that makes 1300awhp so I'm somewhat used to the all wheel drive cars with power. The Evo however, may be THE most fun little car to drive I've ever owned. It's a freakin blast.

As for the Endless kit, I got a deal I couldn't refuse and jumped all over it. I'll let you know the performance of them once I actually drive the car with them on it.

Speaking of Virtual Works, I'm sure you've heard of them from the Supra's they build. The VWR intake manifold and header make the most power, period. Dana took the same principals into making my Evo set up and BOY did it deliver. I forgot to add it made 689awhp and 661awtq with too soft of a gate spring. It's been changed now, and the car hits the dyno again Friday with 3-4 more PSI coming.

Thank you gentlemen. I'll be posting pics of the OTHER Chargespeed bodied blue Evo later this week. Also working on finishing up this silver car. I think it needs a Motec M800, all the Cusco braces, and a MUCH better stereo than it's pretty much done in my opinion. I will also take some much better pictures of this car.
