Evo 9 on E-85

Publishsed by Mitch on September 17th, 2009 | Posted in Tuning & Tech | Comments Off

Today I put an Evo 9 on the dyno to just check to see its power now that it has switched to E-85.  This Evo has been on our dyno before and I help the customer to tune it on regular old 91 pump fuel.  He has since then put some E-85 in the tank and turned up the boost to 30psi and man does this car scream!!

The car made 444whp and375ft/lbs!  Now the kicker to all this is the turbo used is a stock appearing turbocharger! The turbo is made by Blouch and is called the BBK Full.  Car makes full boost (30psi) before 4000rpm!!  This is all on the stock 2.0l with no headstuds as well!  E-85 really is an amazing fuel and as we do more and more with it we can see that surpasses even most leaded race gases in terms of detonation resistance and it is cheaper that regular 91 pump fuel!  Win win if you ask me.

You can find any parts to make you Evolution scream here:

57Motorsport G07WT Racing Wheel Released for JDM and Euro Cars

Publishsed by Dan on June 16th, 2008 | Posted in Product Info | No Comments »

Vivid Racing now has available these new 57Motorsport racing wheels.  Visit our Wheel Store Here or Contact Us to purchase.

57Motorsports G07WT model, which is a racing derivative from our Gram Lights brand, is designed and developed for racing use as a cost effective alternative to more expensive forged wheels. We designed this wheel to absorb impacts equally throughout the entire rim to avoid any stress concentration. The design is derived not for form, but as a functional 15 offset spoke with details on the face which aids in performance such as lightness and rigidity. There are slits o the rim which helps to absorb impact from bumps and debris and can absorb these forces throughout the rim entire rim. The wheel was designed from our long term racing experience and passion which stems from a combination of high technology through manufacturing and software along with trial and error to offer a wheel that can compete with some of our best forged wheels. This wheel has been tested by a race team that is currently participating in the WTCC series in Germany. They have tested this wheel at the grueling Nurburgring in Germany and Snetterton circuit in the UK. Across the world in Japan, the famous Honda race team J’s Racing tested this wheel at the Okayamaya International Race Track. All teams have supported this wheel with great feedback.

“I could feel more rigidity and strength to compare to forged wheel and it had better acceleration and direct feel from it. It is very important for our driving especially during the cornering acceleration. If there was deformation of the rim during the cornering, I can feel the “gap” of response of acceleration. The weight is a little heavier than forged wheel, however, it had more direct feel because the wheel has more rigidity than the forged wheel.

57Motorsport G07WT is the winning wheel of choice to acquire a direct feel to be in the winner’s circle.
