    I thought it was a common knowledge, even from DSM people.

    I think it's plastered all over evolutionm.net. too lazy to look up.

    Didn't AMS dyno on awd? I'm sure buschur racing did their on AWD as well as Dynoflash.

    I still don't understand how a manifold could blow up an engine unless it's tuned too lean.

    how much boost were you guys running?

    550 whp is impressive. What were the numbers before you put the manifold on? also any additional fuel components added with the manifold?

    Yeh, my bad, i guess the evo stock rods aren't that strong.... i wonder what dynoflash uses on their car. that car is sick! 9 seconds. And there was that other black evo with stock turbo that ran 10 sec or something like that? against buschur racing evo!

    I love evos! wish i could sell my prelude and get one...

    So the stock block is good for 600. Can you post up those links for me that you found on Evom because I couldn't find it....if it 600 is that to 2 wheels or all four wheels. Because most of the Evos making 600 or more dyno in 2wd (I believe that includes AMS...but I could be wrong) which doesn't account for awd drive train loss. Mine was dynoed on an awd dyno. I aklso mention that my car was making about 550 at the time it blew because of the manifold that we put on it. That was AWHP as well

    OK. I was getting offended. I'm pretty sure that they dyno on 2wd dyno's...nut I'm not sure. I'll try to do some research and make sure before I stick my foot in my mouth. Although I don't think that is talked about much since 2wd makes it look like more power.

    Well, once you aren't so tired from looking on the internet search batlground on IA or evom. You can find all of the steps we took with the car. The intake manifold makes the car make more power. Thus that extra 25 HP possibly had something to do with the rods breaking (we just put the manifold on and the car blew pretty much as soon as we had a chance to get on it). Like I already said, the pistons are fine (except for the one still stuck in the cylindar ). No sign of detonation. Just stock rods are weak. They're not made for 550 awhp. They are made for stock grocery getters. Im actuallt surprised that our tranny or transfer case hasn't broken yet. Usually that's the first thing to go.

    But if you want you can look at the dyno chart in my sig.
