dude you have no idea who I am or what I have worked on, or what I used to drive. For your information, I am actually just as big import fan as I am domestic. I am very good friend's with the owner of Devo Tuning and have worked on and driven many fully built DSMs making well over 550awhp. My best friend Mike bought the Devo Tuning Evo II last year (the worlds fastest evo) and I helped re-build the motor and convert it to LHD. I've driven countless big-turbo Evos from the shop. I was just up at AMS in Chicago 2 weeks ago for the Dyno of my friends fully built 37r 2g DSM that put down some very nice numbers. I was going to buy a Evo when I moved here (8 months ago) but no longer had the hook-up on parts (from AMS/DevoTuning) like I did in Chicago so I bought a Cobra.
Sooooo Don't tell me I don't know DSMs or know that 4cyl can make power... when I have much more experience with them than you do! You can go to my website for videos of my friends cars, the dyno video at AMS of my friends 2g will be up soon.
Thanks.
