Here's a guy from EvolutionM.net

Some vids of a 9.98 pass. He's faster now. And also some vids of him on the streets. Yes, street legal:

I'd love to have a daily driver with that much power. sad.gif I still can't imagine what it would feel like, even with those vids.

Pfft. Maybe you're happy with only 200-300whp...but as long as I have enough to rape a Ripp SDS Tib, I'm happy.

Nice Evo though. I know RnR Racing have been using the 2.4L (4G64) and been pulling some impressive 1/4 mile times.

Oh no I currently Have 304 WHP from just my TBE and Stage 1 PCM. I will be up around 500 by the time this year is over. I simply meant that with my 1st gen tiburon I was happy with 300 WHP

I'll be happy running mid 11's. Whether it'll take 300 or 600hp.

I have driven some highpowered cars... I personally think you can have too much of a good thing. That much HP you pretty turn an Evo into a car very much like any other muscle car.. good only in a straight line
