It went from travis joking about beating him in a race to emanuel saying hed beat the shit out of him, that he lives at home, something about trannys, ext… I’ve got no problems with anyone, but like I said Emanuel talks more shit then anyone on this site and for him to get so out of control for no reason is just crazy.

Thanks for sticking up for me man. I’ve tried to call you a few times recently when I was in the Albany area, did you change your number?

I quoted the wrong post but whatever. Don’t take anything personal. I’m sure Emanual’s car is built well and runs strong.

A few years ago, Emanual came out of the blue and said ‘he heard’ that my Corvette was slow. A race never happened. Now, after all the years of false allegations (tranny, living with parents, making fun of my friends band, etc), He has more power. So do I. I challenged him to a race, and he’s declined again.

So, here are the facts that are previlent for the accusations being made here. I’m not getting into the details of anything besides everyone’s common interest here- **automotive performance**.

1. Other than the exhaust hitting the subframe and the chewed up front inner fender panels, _nothing_ on my Evo has not been upgraded/repaired since I purchased it in the summer of 2010.

2. My Evo is faster than Emanuals Corvette in from a ‘dig’ or ‘roll’ on the street. **Period.**

So yes he did technically cohabitate with his parents, but it wasn’t because he is some irresponsible kid. In fact I would go as far as to say he sacrificed quite a bit to better his family.
> 
> Also unless Travis changed his wheel and tire package his car is on street tires. I’ve been in his evo and RWD cars of similar weight and power to yours, both are impressive street cars to say the least. I also applaud your decision to refuse to run anybody on the street since you have actual responsibilities. Anyway my whole point is all the personal attacks posted on this forum don’t do the community as a whole any good so is there any need for this kind of behaviour to continue?

Thanks for the kind words Will. I apologize that I’ve fallen off. On that note, I’ll text you right now.

The corn is pump fuel , I’m gonna stand by that cause its what I’m gonna run also lol . Still room for better fuel than e anyway . Travis’s car is deff fast ill never say it isn’t , I applaud Trav for doing what he did with his parents as many wont do it . Emans car was built not bought , Travis car was bought and semi refined not built . Emans car is nowhere near maxed out , his only limit is belt slippage over 8 psi but like I said I can get another 100+ h.p out of it as it sits .

Thanks for the positive statement about my parents. Even if it was just selling us a hood, you helped us reach an important goal. In regards to the ‘semi refinement’, here it is (what I remember)

1)Bottom end rebuild with new rods/pistons  
2)Replaced cylinder head/valvesprings/etc  
3)Uprgraded head studs  
4)Upgraded fuel rail/injectors/fuel line/fuel pumps/2nd fuel pump triggering system  
5)Replaced pressure plate/all clutch hardware  
6)Upgraded clutch slave hyralic hose  
7)Removed/replace entire rear diff  
8)Upgraded ignition (twice)  
9)Upgraded header, exhaust housing, lower intercooler piping  
10)Powercoated basically everything  
11)Upraded radiator  
12)Installed (2) oil coolers  
13)Installed FJO wideband on custom bracket  
14)Installed oil pressure, oil temp, water temp and ethanol content gauges  
15)Installed STM small brake kit  
16)Sourced/installed 2 piece aluminum driveshaft  
17)Rebuilt/repaired throttle body  
18)Repaired entire wiring harness  
19)Installed alternate map switch  
20)Performed signifigant weight loss on the entire car  
21)Engineered/R+D’ed fuel additive to combat E85 injector gunking  
22)Installed 3 port boost solenoid

Thats about it for things off of the top of my head…

I maintain/upgrade aircraft mechanical/electrical systems for a living. I take my job very seriously as there are lives on the line each time a pilot leaves the ground in an aircraft that I’ve maintained.

_ **You cant pull over at 10000 feet if the engine stalls or if you can’t control the aircraft.** _

I put the same level of integrity into working on my cars. The Evo was ‘unsafe at any speed’ when I purchased it and I’ve worked very hard to take it to where it’s at today.

Anybody can make a fast car fast. The real challenge is making FWD quick from a dig on street tires. AWD is for the chooches.
