Re: HMT Accord vs EVO IX.

bottom line is if your not running at least 220whp you dont have a chance. I personaly think your going to need to up the boost and tune your car. If your going against the evo 9 its weights in about 3300 pounds against your 2800 pound accord. its heavier thats your advantage...but it has 286hp and 289ft/lb torque plus its AWD so hes going to take you of the line regardless. If it stock, AWD suffer from a great drive train loss so thats another advantage for you. but it prob wont help much.

You should swap in an H22 in there, tune it, boost it to 10 psi, be a very good driver, and rape the ******

Downside on em is boost fades out at higher rpm (due to too small a turbo for the motor), and they have around a 7500rpm redline. Even in my 89 hatch with a boosted LS running 14 psi on a 16g7cm2 @ the time I still had a tough time trying to keep up with it. On the launch he will own you hard, so just hope you can catch up enough when he starts losing it on the top end.

I'm not an EVO expert, but I believe the reason their boost tapers off on the top end is due to the stock boost controler, not due to a small turbo. I believe it was made to turn down boost at higher higher RPM's. Once my friend threw in a manual boost controller in his, it stayed rock solid to redline.

Lengths? WTF is this new ricer crap... you race side by side. That's the only way to race.

I could just imagine in track, saying to the your opponent "mind giving me a 5 second lead, since you're more muscular?"... "No". You race side by side.

I can't get over how gay that is.. asking for lengths... hahaha
