Hey guys, I wasn’t sure if you had seen this yet, but the evo is back in the shop for a GT42r turbo kit. This car should be running over 850 hp without nitrous. Incase you don’t know, the inlet on a GT42r is 5"!!!
Read about it here.

How long does it take to spool that thing. o_o
suppose to be running 50-60 psi and spool full boost at like 5000-5500k
geeeez and i thought putting a gt40r on those cars was big…
damn that thing is huge, that is insane, one fast evo
sick :tup:
Yeah, Al Friedman Stepped up from the 35R to the 40R to get an extra 80hp. Now someone is going to go alittle bigger?? Sheezus…
At this point, isn’t this car pretty much a dyno queen? I don’t know what that car redlines at but full boost at 5500rpm doesn’t seem very usable. I dunno.
It’s driveable… I am sure they have extended the rev limit (usuable limit too) to 9k at least. If you think about it, a lot of the turbo Honda’s don’t start making power til about 5k so it’s not THAT much of a stretch. It is certainly not going to be quick on the spool but they probably have spray for that purpose… Regardless, the GT42R is definitely at the very end of usability on a 2.0L block (not much better on a 2.3L if that is what is under the hood).
Gotcha. Yeah if its revving to 9k then that’s not too bad.
That does seem like an awefully big turbo being pushed by such a small engine.
Pretty cool though. 800hp out of those little motors is a great feat no matter how you do it.
that car is nuts. and that turbo is HUGE!
What motivates theses people?
Think of the time, and money invested in that car.
Oh well, it is fun to see people do it, I guess.
It looks like he is just investing $$, and letting someone else put the time into it… oh to be rich
ATTENTION: “Jeller, Mr. Jeller. Now paging Jeller” :poke:
you won’t do it… 
"lag… lag… lag… BOOST, SHIT MYSELF, SHIFT… lag… lag… lag… "
and so on.
:tspry:
So out of the 72 pages of that thread which ones are the good ones?
he’s probably spooling it right now for the first run next season.
a small shot of n2o would help with spooling. and if you havent seen the video of the same size turbo on the smaller 2.0 on the ams car, spool pretty fast, the 2.3 should spool it 500 faster.
NICE.:headbang:
