Thread: Got SPANKED by an Evo.....

    Got SPANKED by an Evo.....

    Man does that ever sting to post.....

    I guess im just not used to being the slow guy lol.

    Anyways, driving back to work from lunch when a white Evo 8 came rolling up behind me. I took notice, and goosed it just a little to get his attention. So im rolling 70mph and he comes up beside me and gives me the look, you know the look im talking about.

    So I give him a nod, and we both hit it about the same time. It was a bloody murder. The truck didnt downshift enough, only kicked down one gear which started my pull from like 2700rpms. Which 2700 rpms isnt exactly a sweet spot for a cammed 4.8 on 20's lol. All I saw was big white shoping cart pulling away, I think I let off at like 90 cause it wasnt even close.

    Just to give a little background my last two vehicles were a 730rwhp 06 GTO and a right at 600rwhp 02 Z28, so I am NOT used to getting stomped on the street. Oh well I guess this just motivates me to do a swap quicker.

    GTO had a LME built 408ci, with a custom rearmount 78mm turbo setup, built fuel system, tuned by LMR, blah blah blah.

    And yes my wife is going back to work this month, so the 6.0 will be in by the end of July hopefully.
