So, each person has different needs and method to modify whose car for specific purpose. Right?
I'm not challenging anyone, but HKS V-Pro and the guy who does the tuning for my evo, they gave me what I want. And hopes my English language is correct
And also hope to see you around too, nice to meet you=)

I was at PR the day you raced, and no offensive but your car sounded like complete ****. SO much turbo surge and fluttering with that HKS bov. I would highly recommend you consider getting a different bov, and a tune by English Racing. I guarantee you will notice a difference in the way your car runs.
Other than that, sick car man. You were hitting those corners pretty hard, it was fun to watch. Good luck with your future racing and welcome.

well, in my opinion for my situation, I don't need so much horsepower at the track because i believe balance, response, reliability are very important at Pacific Raceways. I satisfy my laptime as a first time solo experience. I know a guy who drive 300hp with good suspension setting and over ten years track experience, he can make 1:34 at Pacific Raceways(SCCA official proved)

Nice car man and good looking lap video...I was almost at the track day but I got suckered into working that day by a dumb*ss chevy service writer that couldn't sell sh*t to a sewer haha (Pardon My French) 
...I wish I had made it out there with you guys though cuz I was curious to see if I could hit my summer track day lap time and to see how much of a difference my tires made from the warm summer track days compared to the cold winter track days...I'm sure I'll see you out there this spring/summer though...I do a lot of the Corvette Club track days and we need more Evo's to come out there and smoke the vettes around the corners!

My Advan A048 equaled to street tire and didn't get enough traction I want! But it was a good moment to feel differently and learn how to use my driving ability to make consistent laptime. And I'm still a new guy on the track.
Alright, I haven't been to Corvette Club, is it fun? Hit me up when you guys go to PR. I went to Alfa Club and Proformance, both solo. I tried to chase down those GT3 and R8, that was a very fun experience and I realize I need to focus on reliability, because finially my car was overheated and couldn't do anymore lap which is suck and so angry
gotta make a air duct for my stock oil cooler
Must get a different BOV. Any suggestion?

). I would suggest a Tial hands down. It would be the last BOV you'd need to buy.

gotta make a air duct for my stock oil cooler All the guys are cool and really open to other cars running with them...A few years ago there was a couple Ferrari's, an Ariel Atom and a Lingenfelter 427 Twin Turbo Vette running with us...And last year there was a V10 R8 running with us...That was fun to keep up with, me and him were shooting identical lap times all day long...He would maybe pull a foot or two on me in the straight but I would pull him through the corners it was a lot of fun! The C6 Z06's are fun to run with too except A LOT of them run slicks and if the driver is even a reasonably good track driver they pull pretty hard on that track even in stock form

This story told me that I have to quit smoking cigarette so I can smoke him in the future but I am addicted to smoke cigarette~ After the section, he came to talk to me, he said when I exit the corner with accelerating, there was CLEAR FOUR tire marks on the road and huge fire ball from my exhaust
I was so happy~ What about HKS Racing Blow Off Valve? Anyone familiar with it?
