Default Evo vs Rx7

I ran a friend's modded rx7 tonight with my Evo. It was 90% humid outside, so both of us were affected, but nonetheless, I got my ass handed to me. I have a boost controller set at 19.5psi (stock is 19), and he has a 94 FD White Touring w/M2 CF Intake, Apexi Power FC w/commander, Pettit SMIC, SS downpipe, RB Dual tip CB, Mazdacomp rad, UO Power Pulley, N-Tech BMK, Pettit AST, boosting 12psi on twin turbos, Apexi TMax Shocks, Eibach Pro Kit, J&S, Fastco Strut TB, Pettit Short Throw, 99 Tail Lights. Supposedly the previous owner of that rx7 dyno'd it at about 300whp. Here's the video from 35-110mph.

I love Rx7's. I've owned two, and hopefully a third will come soon. They are VERY easy to mod. Problem is the engines will ALWAYS break. If you get 80k out of a 13bt or 13b-rew you're doin good.

lol, 300RWHP VS an AWD evo putting down like 240, and to top it all off you go from a roll, VS a lighter car......could have seen it coming a mile away ahahaha. probably would have been a bit more exciting from a stop.

I agree it would have been closer for a dead stop. A few mods to the Evo and you should give him a good race.
