Re: Uprated Evo IX makes maddest Lancer yet

The Norris is basically a race car vs. this kit meant for normal street driven Evos. A GT42R is a pretty damn big turbo to have on there. You may make good peak power, but the lag would kill. The whole car is gutted. The power figure is on race gas and 118 octane no less (way high). It makes over 200 lb. ft. less torque than horsepower it claims as well. A Toyota Supra could make like 1200+ horsepower with a gigantic turbo, but how would it actually be on the street? Raw numbers can be decieving is all I'm trying to say.
