shop that can fix manifold

[tez n u]

Does anybody know a good engineering shop that can grind turbo manifold flanges flat?? Mine is a bit not so flat (couple of mm's out)

[tez n u]

Lol its an evo bro ;D

[WRXONP]

anyone with a milling machine bro - engine rebuilders / head specalists can do it - same way they skim heads -

some general engineering shops may have it but probably not

[tez n u]

Nice yea ill go see this engine builder i know

[Pappu1]

whats that got done? man the subi looked so much better then that 4

[Guest]

Agreed I was hoping for a hardcore early evo not another 4. Way to have a good sleeper though and bolt in later engine/turbo. I wouldve kept the rex anyday.

Coz of a funny little fuckup called AYC I think.

[tez n u]

This has a rs diff so no ayc ;D and i think a evo 4 is much more of a sleeper as theres tons of older evos running tens and 11s at the drag strip

Remember my subi didnt come pretty i had to do some work to it to get it up to spec in both looks and go department.......the evo is a 2.3 liter stroker but still running stock turbo for now....have installed 880cc injectors and 320lph fuel pump already and done evo 6 ecu reflash, waiting on turbo and have a few issues with clutch and stuff to sort out before i can think about cosmetics..will probably put on some decent wheels and adjustables and lower it......

[tez n u]

No idea to be honest, was going good before i sold it and showed mint compression......yea the evo has a few mods but looks stock as from out side he he.....not that fast though with stock turbo it really needs a big turbo to start moving ;D

[tez n u]

Yea on stock turbo, it will run around 12.2 easy on stock turbo i was having a lot of gearbox issues that day, somthing to do with clutch not disengaging properly in higher revs resulting in very slow shifting and missing gears...its already trapping 180km/h plus though on just 17ish psi ;D

eeeff thats mint for a Evo4 ..

Trust me if it holds up it will run a lot better times in the future....aiming for mid 11s by atleast night wars

evo 4 is actually a little bit lighter then 5 and 6

yeah thats the downfall of evo/mitsis in general.. they have annoying running gear problems lol.. gearbox/transfer case/clutches etc.. well imo.. if you can sort the right running gear combination in it it will be very rapid.. i also heard evo 4s have bad oil pressure problems.. something about blowing motors because oil doesnt go around the whole engine causing it to blow..

i have nothing against them.. have huge respect for evos but im a suby man. lol

Yea but theres also rumours of every subi blowing up big end bearings lol......the evo gear boxs are a lot stronger then a subi 5 speed ( i blew 3 sti 5 speeds in less then 1 year), they can run tens easy on stock box.....the ayc diff blows up though but i have a rs diff which is ment to be a lot stronger......transfer case is one issue they seem to have......my problem is not the actual box it self though its the clutch that seems to be causing issues..i had a lot of issues with my sti as well and when i got them sorted it really started to perform well.

[tez n u]

I dont know wat he ran but that day he would have beaten me easy coz my times were getting slower and slower coz my gears were locking me out worse each time i made a pass

[tez n u]

 hate-evoz said:

haha fair enough.. both subys and mitis have their pros and cons etc.. sti's - cooling system, wrong treatment they go kaboom lol. evos.. a few good launches....boom goes the transfer cash... then thers the tappets ... tick tick tick. lol lets just say they both cool.. haha

but i know for a fact - a standard sti version 4 sedan.. will beat a stock evo 4... lol done it heaps of times

Thing is evos factory boost control selnoid fails causing them to boost well below stock.....they should boost around 15-16psi stock but most of them are well below that stock due to the failed solenoid.....i had a version 4 sedan ages ago and my bros evo 4 use to beat me with same mods evertime by a little bit......they come with a td05 16g 9.5cm turbo from factory which is a lot more superior to our vf23s

[tez n u]

My evo 4 was boosting around 11psi when i got it with stock solenoid which had more then likely failed and that made it slow as even with a 2.3 engine.....

[tez n u]

that wrx in the video is my mates and he had a td06 ;D evo is my brothers lol he had cut out issues due to leak in his intercooler and his evo was far from worked, should be the other way around the evo had basic bolt ons.....wrx owners name is kerwin

[tez n u]

thats my rvr and that had a stock td05 lol dont know why he wrote gt35r.......see what a good fight it puts up and thats a evo motor in a van.

[tez n u]

naa his evo was not in any crew....i think you guys mistaking it for some other car.

[tez n u]

 hate-evoz said:

nah man that evo 4 had heapsa s*** done haha i read the specs list when we were gonna swap it for our ride but yeah wasnt keen.. sti only running 10psi though?? lol

ok maybe another evo but dont you think its strange that a fully worked evo that should be running 11s is loosing soo badly?? makes no sense aye....a td06 wrx on ten psi will not be anywhere near 11sec trust me been there done that
