The things you need to upgrade are some bigger injectors, new fuel filter (ours is paper and it goes bye bye) and possibly a new fuel pump. Of course you also need to get tuned... but thats a given.

I am not looking for a lot of HP but more for torque and a curve with HP on a wide spread rpm band not a huge number only from 5500 to 6500.
I also want reliability as pulling hard for 20mn is different that pulling 10''



I start to agree with you the window are not that heavy but the motor and the mecanism are. Also for the front window I need to be able to drop them . how?
As far as the rear window how much do you think is the weigh saving from glass to lexan?



The problem on this is not the weight saving but more that there is wires everywhere


what do you mean by this? is the under panel helping for cooling? or just because of air flowing better with the panel under the car


good point there thanks



I am really surprise about your remark here. On all the car I mods the sway bar was a huge improvement more than the schocks. The good thing about coil over is easy adjustement. On my vette I put T1 spring bilstein and T1 sway bar. the car turn 100% flat and a huge grip. But I have no adjustement to play with. Is it that bad?
Is the Evo really special as normaly you can stay with softer adjustement which help on grip as a stiff sway bar take care on the balance from side to side and helping both spring to work together. I know the sway bar are not that important at lower speed but for cornering at high speed they are very important.
Again this is my first AWD car and don't know them much so it could be different from what I experienced before



I need to go through this.. But so far it scares me.
I need to keep the heater to defrost the wind shield



Thanks you.
This is a lot of help. I was very frustrated at the beginning with the kind of answer I received. It has been much better recentley with real nice person and helpfull comments.
I am starting to find the help I received from the corvette community when I started to mods the car.

Aslo depends a lot on the tuner too. Do not over boost the car. You dont need over 24-25 PSi on stock turbo set up on circuit racing.:

As I am planning to sale the Evo interior with the recaro door panel as a whole package.
I will ask the buyer to trade me his door


more I listen to you and more I discovered it will have to stay like this.



thanks for all the help

Always check around before you make a bigger decision. Like a roll cage and so on. Also check the rule book the organization you want or might to want to run, about everything. Example NASA and SCCA. Safety systems , seat brackets , oil spill kit, etc.
