@Mark Nicholls these cars are all personal projects in the background. Some are sponsor cars, that are around for some marketing content as well.
You Aussie's know how to build/package a product. Haltech and GFB parts are so well packed they make it stateside better than stateside parts.
Looking good Marty!! Just a word of advice from a fellow evo9 owner; I advise on upgrading your tcase and rear diff if you’re hitting power beyond 400bhp. Especially if you’re going to be hitting the drag strip and dumping the clutch at 4K rpm. The weakest part of evos are the transmission and drivetrain- not the engine. I would hate to see you blow something on your driveline launching trying to beat the R!!

Probably shouldn't be dumping the clutch at 4k rpm though, I would advise a bit more rpm so it doesn't bog down and also slipping the clutch on the initial launch to take some of the shock out of it. Simply dumping the clutch over and over will definitely lead to disaster

From a master UK mechanic and diagnostic technician of 35 years you are doing a great job with the evo it should bring out mass's of power and it will take it lap it up like a dog on heat one thing though once you have tuneded it to the haltech ecu there is no way you should then run it on the factory ecu it will run like a bag of crap and probably burn out some of the haltech sensors the only good thing about the wiring harness is ease of use and for when you come to sell it so you can keep all the good stuff and put the factory sensors back on, besides that you guys are golden you do give a lot of good advice to amature car builders keep it coming lads all the best from john from Rugby warwickshire UK

Love the video boys, as others have said Marty, watch that transfer and box. Owned 3 evos and now a 400awkw Galant VR4 and have blown 3 boxes. At that power it won’t take you long to blow one. Change the oil after every hard launch, and as soon as you see shavings in the oil, start looking at second hand boxes. Plenty of companies build transfers and gearboxes for them with stage 1,2,3 kits available. Evolyf!!
I know almost nothing about ECUs and tuning stuff and within the first ten minutes of this video, I genuinely felt wiser - good job the MCM and Haltech legends! 👍🏻
