^^^^This is exactly what an evo is. Brilliant at what it was designed to do.

The beauty with a valve in your system when you want it loud you can. $160 and have cheap straight through system.

3.5 inch straight through system with a massive cannon. Nothing less. Apexi exhaust control valve and tail silencer. Let the bitch flow.

Suppose getting an alignment will tell exactly what the problem is.

Or pull out the weak links while they are working and get good money for them and get something to cope with your setup. Don't kid yourself you will abuse it once in a while and with all that torque it will go bang. Just search the forums and see that this is the norm.

Yep. Quads are ruthless on the drivetrain as are singles with a massive clamping force so choose wisely.

If you are looowww then upper arms as bushes won't adjust enough. But your alignment will tell you which way you need to go.

yep and yep

Just a standard 33 box in a 26, but I haven't got the torque that you will have, no where near. The torque is what should be considered rather than the power. Just something to investigate anyway. You don't want to be smashing the box first up and have to wait to get one built if it's your dd.

Hmmm have you budgeted for a stronger one, I think it would be wise. Maybe something you should discuss with CRD if you haven't already done so.

What gearbox?

Yep like tooth picks

As this guy found out with his so called forged motor which ended up having forged pistons with standard rods in an evo. Threw a rod and these are the pieces of the block that was picked up under the dyno.

Unless you know for certain the engine internals, condition and history and can trust the information, most tuners would advise a tune which is safe for a stock engine. Anything above that is at your own peril. Putting a scope in the chamber won't paint the whole picture of the build so it's still a can of worms.

Totally agree. Normal for a gates belt to whine when things heat up.

Dont need to read more mate have driven many setups in 25 years, definitely not uneducated in regards to fast cars, you know the ones you spend your life looking at YouTube and reading about on forums. But every morning I fire up my 26 and life could not be better. I wish this on everyone if that's what they want. And the 26 is more than capable today more than it ever was... I prove that to myself ever day... Now YOU can read about it.

All the best of luck mate. Before you take the plunge do yourself a favour and experience a couple of setups so you know exactly what you are going to get, how it's going to drive and other things that may be important to you. And make sure you investigate the reliability of your setup esp driveline. Good luck mate.

Doesn't matter anyway. He can experience a -9 e85 setup easily and go back to twins if he chooses. Not a big deal. He need to experience it first though. Anyway hope it all works out for him. The more setups he looks at the clearer his decision will be.

On a 26 or stroker.

Grow up mate. All I am doing is suggesting he experiences different setups before he makes his decision because obviously he hasn't and the last thing he should do is rely on advice based on egotistical bravado some members show. Go and have a cold shower.

I thought he bought it like that. Regardless he should experience different setups before he makes his decision not rely on someone else's preference. He might decide to go back to twins, never know?

That didn't take long. Did it. Egomaniac that's all you are. The type of guy that shows publicly how much of moron you really are. I choose to drive my 33 everyday. My other cars I choose not to. And your 32 was a 26. That confirms what I have been saying... Thanks for that ... Oh and I remember in past your 30 was going to be daily driven.. obviously not. The last I remember, I can hang around, it's a public forum. I have the same entitlements as anyone else including you.

No doubt, no argument here. The 26 is more than capable though. Proper twin setup and they are a very enjoyable responsive streetable combination. So my point is before a newbie makes a decision to go stroker he should experience a few 26 setups. That's all. You don't need a stroker to enjoy driving a GTR, I don't care what the stroker fanboys say. Suppose someone should experience both before making a decision with all other things considered, especially reliabilty.

Yep the days when it was on the road.

Yeah so you should be the last person advising someone on a daily.
