got a surprise yesterday
so me and my buddy drove over to bremerton wa, about 4 hours from where we live, to have his slightly modded '03 cobra put on a dyno and to get a tune up. on the car ended up putting down 456 hp and 471 tq to the wheels. so its not too bad
so after we leave the shop, we start heading home. as we started getting close to tacoma we started running into some heavy traffic. i noticed a little ways ahead of us that there was a white Evo that was eventually going to be merging into our lane. so my buddy lets the evo get in front of us. traffic was slowed down to about 5-10 mph so when the evo was pulling in front of us, we hear the evo and right away we both knew it was all cammed out and stuff from the lope it had. he followed us for about 15 miles or so before we found an open spot on the interstate. the evo pulls up next to us and the guy looks over at us and gives a nod. he then downshifts and when he honked the third time, we took off. the evo took us by a probably 4 or 5 cars from about a 45 mph roll in 3rd. both of us were like HOLY SHIT, that little car had some nuts on it. it sounded like a friggin jet taking off just from the turbo. so we catch up to him and my friend looks over at him smiling and saying ''what the fuck is in that thing?" he just kinda smiled and gave us an approved nod. my friend montions for one more race and this time we took off from maybe a 30 roll in 2nd. the evo ended up handing us our ass by about 7 or so cars.
we didnt get to talk to the guy or anything but we both just gave each other a thumbs up and he took his exit. i live in a small town thats over run by a lot of imports but none of them are a problem for me and in my TA and especially my friend in his cobra, unitl that one. just thought i'd share that with everyoneLast edited by transamdude99; 01-30-2009 at 10:21 AM.

LOL hate hate hate. To stomp a termi making 450+ it would have to be a 35r or a 37r, probably a 37r.

Most of what you will see on this forum as far as imports go
But I will definately give props to any import blowing away a 450+ hp anything...that either took a lot of money, or a lot of time and patience, but probably both. Of course, being a former owner of a turbo import, it's a little easier for me to give props.

That was a stompin' fo shur! I like any kind of fast car, but still, an Evo looks like a 4 door econobox with a wing on it. However, give me a ride please in the Evo that smoked the Termi!!!

10k in just about anything will make it fast as hell. 10k in my car is covering a new rear a 383 build and a N2O set up.
Anyway, props to the evo for beating the crap out of a mustang. I really dont care who did it just as long as it happened.
