Correct. The first 1/4 of a mile we had on there was 13.5 in a stock X.

With a boost controller set to 23 PSI, I ran a 13.3 @ 102 with a 2.09 60'.
And another time at a different track ran a 13.5 @ 101 with a 2.05 60' but my boost spiked at 25 and the computer hated me for it.

We took ours to the track the other night as a last-minute thing.
Stock clutch was slipping through 1st and 2nd (REALLY slipping) and luckily (COUGH!) I'm one of the people with the notchy 2-3 (since getting it). 3rd Gear was locking me out all night (was like trying to shift through a brick wall).
I wasn't even going to post results as that's how disappointed I was with the car, but hopefully the clutch will be in by end of this week, and I'll have swapped out the 2-3 setup and re-shimmed the trans by that point.
The car netted a ****ty [email protected] (pulling these #s out of my head..might be off a bit--watch the video for my suckage). It's got a good bit of potential left in it when the clutch holds and it lets me get into third the first try. If I could get a clean pass in it, I'd put money on 11.9s to 11.7s at that mph.

Hopefully Mitsu will get me the parts to tear into this trans (did I mention it has 1500 miles on it at this point?) and get the thing figured out for next week at some point.

It won't with just those mods. He won't shave off a second with a better clutch. Damn, am I the only one who would be happy with a 12.6 with just those bolt ons?
We'll see once the clutch is in and the tran will allow me into 3rd gear.
The mph is good enough for 11.9s. I just need to get a clutch that holds through 1st and 2nd (crappy 60' and 330') and a 3rd gear that doesn't block me out.
Big Valley has proven this to be possible (as well as running 11.9s/11.8s with other AWDs in the past in the 110mph range).
The car's got mid 1.6 60' time potential without a clutch that just spins (I pulled a 1.735 with it slipping badly but a crappy 5.222 with it slipping through 2nd as well having to backpedal the gas to get it to grab).
It's all about driving the piss out of it.
Way back in the day people called BS on running 12.7s @ 100-102mph in a DSM as well--but that was proven to be possible time and time again.

Low 12's would be great with those mods, but 11's would be sexual! :wackoff:

My clutch isn't spinning/slipping in first and second. I do know though that it doesn't launch really well and hold during launch. Big Valley had a different turbo in their car...not just a few bolt ons with a mbc. They also had a ACT clutch and pretty much every bolt on possible thus far when they hit 11.9
I'm not/am trying to be a dick here, but what's your experience with drag racing AWD 4 cylinders? I've been racing/building them since 1998 (concentrating on Mitsubishis as I worked for Mitsu for some time) but you seem to have a better grasp on it then me....
I know what Big Valley had on their car like everyone else with a X that's been on message boards lately. Their car ran 1.4mph faster through the traps. I've also ran 11s with 110 mph. What is your point other then being argumentive?
ACT is sending me an Xtreme plate shortly to put the clutch issue to an end and give them feedback on it. They sent me an HD Clutch a little bit ago, but I asked them to send me an Xtreme instead as we plan on pushing that car hard shortly. I'm expecting nothing but rave reviews like every other clutch I've used from them.
If you have some sort of experience that I'm lacking, or have some sort of reasoning behind your posts I'm more then willing to listen.
Otherwise, I'm wondering what your motive is....
wasn't there a review of a vishnu evo x that runs 12.7 on just a tune and an exhaust? and vishnu said it could run a 12.3 if he could somehow fix some issue dealing with the launch because the car could only do a 0-60 in 4.6 seconds compared to the original 4.9
