Poor evo!!! I bet you feel like you are in a school bus pulling 5 tanks after getting out of one of those little speed demons!
Looks like you got something going for you, I wish you the best of luck!
Did i miss the post with the wheel specs though? 18X9.5 + 38 maybe? or can you restate with tire size thanks!

Sorry now saw this
. Software Engineer by degree/profession, but Mechanical Engineer/Aero at heart since both have always interested me. Basic approach to problems is all the same, just the speciality is different 
.I had lots of friends on our SAE car. So I was able to watch them build it up over their Junior and Senior year. Don't remember how it did in the competition in the end. I know I saw in on display a couple of times when I went back for college recruiting for my company.
I started (and more or less finished) my senior project my junior year so then I ended up helping out on a MUAV (Miniature Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) project. Wrote the code that would make a Sidewinder joystick control the craft from a laptop. Lots of fun. Enjoy college...work is overrated
.Good luck with your degree....that (ME) was my back up plan
.The sig was just in response to some responses I had been seeing under the ECUFlash forum. Someone would post a map asking for help, then other people would give them all kinds of "help" without even asking the OP important questions like I dunno, type of fuel, boost, mods to help them end up at a proper solution. Thats when I realised the big difference between engineers and everyone else
and thus the sig.

Sorry now saw this. Software Engineer by degree/profession, but Mechanical Engineer/Aero at heart since both have always interested me. Basic approach to problems is all the same, just the speciality is different .
I had lots of friends on our SAE car. So I was able to watch them build it up over their Junior and Senior year. Don't remember how it did in the competition in the end. I know I saw in on display a couple of times when I went back for college recruiting for my company.
I started (and more or less finished) my senior project my junior year so then I ended up helping out on a MUAV (Miniature Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) project. Wrote the code that would make a Sidewinder joystick control the craft from a laptop. Lots of fun. Enjoy college...work is overrated.
Good luck with your degree....that (ME) was my back up plan.
The sig was just in response to some responses I had been seeing under the ECUFlash forum. Someone would post a map asking for help, then other people would give them all kinds of "help" without even asking the OP important questions like I dunno, type of fuel, boost, mods to help them end up at a proper solution. Thats when I realised the big difference between engineers and everyone else and thus the sig.
