Back in BC - 2008 Evo X MR Downtown Van
 
Hey all,

I moved away from the lower mainland 3 years ago for a failed experiment in Halifax Nova Scotia. I've never been very active on Revscene but have been extremely active in Evo specific forums for years. Now that I'm back in a larger city with a bit of a pulse regarding the automotive itch I figured I should say hi on here anyways.

Im one of those lucky assholes who has 2 rides that are both moderately retarded. If you were at the meet today you would have walked by my Evo, the flat red Evo X MR.

The car is halfways internet famous in certain circles. I've spent the better part of 18 months getting it to the point it is now, which is roughly 660whp and 450wtq on a dynojet or 585whp uncorrected on RG's MD500 dyno. The motor and trans are fully built with some prototype goodies in the trans from Kozmic Motorsports who I do testing for. Suspension supplied by AMR Engineering in Washington and a Borg Warner EFR 8374 rounds out the power side. The car only runs ethanol, don't even have a tune for pump gas on it that's worth a pinch of shit.

I'm always looking for some new people to grab a beer with so hit me up if you are looking for one yourself.

Oh - the daily is a blacked out 2014 Grand Cherokee SRT...

This photo has my winter wheels on it, currently running 20" 5 spokes with 295's on all 4 corners.

Hah, wraps been on there for almost 2 years. Unfortunately 14 months of that time the car was torn apart getting built. Long story best told over copious amounts of booze.

Hopefully picking up a VF wide body kit later this year and will end up painting the car at that time. It's Phantom black under the wrap - will probably paint the car a matte blue, kind of like the frozen edition M3 from a few years ago.

Don't have many other shots of the Jeep right now, going to try and get some decent shots when the weather gets better with my DSLR with the summer wheels on it.

Ahhh I see. The matte lambo metallic blue is one of the best.

Im considering getting a black evo x or an Sti. Thinking about trading in my g coupe for a 'family' car. =D Jeep looks good stock. Its still a sleeper. Lots of people under estimate them.

Octane limited with pump. Probably 450-475whp on 94 and RG's dyno. Displacement and octane really fuck you on these small motors :(

E85 is like unicorn powder :)
