Another Project, Another Forum!!!!
Hey guys, what's up? I'm John and I'm an addict......... Well like the title says, I just picked up another project, and it's a 93 240, with some basic mods: Intake, wrapped header, exhaust, msd 6al with coil, kevlar clutch, apexi safcII....... Not bad for a daily driver. The guy had it dyno'ed at 151whp and 140tq.......
This is the completion of my trifecta, as now I have FWD, AWD, and RWD.
A little about my other cars.... My Probe GT was purchased 5 years ago and was my first tuner car. It went 14.2@96 N/A, then I supercharged it, and at 9psi I ran 12.58@112. Now in it's current form, its turboed and the motor is being rebuilt, and new injectors are on the way so I can run E85. best run to date is 13.01@ 108, with traction issues......
Now to the quicker car, my Lancer Evo VIII. It's best run to date is 12.59@109. I know that doesn't sound that fast, but that was on the stock turbo, with no second gear! At that time, the car had a 3" TBE, ok clutch, 272 cams, and a boost controller at stock boost(19psi). Now the car has a 20g turbo, 1000cc injectors, and it runs on E85. I haven't ran at the track since new mods, but with a boost leak and only peaking 17psi, the car put down 301whp, and its currently tuned to peak at 26psi, then tapers to 20........ damn mitsu's..........
So anyway, that's a run down of my cars. I like to do all my own work to my cars. so this will be a new experience with the drivetrain of this car. Thanks for reading guys, and I'm glad to be apart of another cool forum! Later

Thanks guys. Ever since I bought the car, I've been having problems! That's why I haven't posted back up...... on the plus side, my probe is back up and running pretty strong......
I'm sure I'll be on here askin all sorts of electrical connections, cause my engine bay looks like a 4 year old had his way with it(After I took a good long look at things......)
