I drove a modded up Evo, I know I know but listen you could learn something.

It was me and another guy building up this car for another guy. We get it finished with a lightened flywheel, new street clutch, 2.4 ltr. stroker motor, intake, exhaust, turbo. all the cool stuff.

The thing was crazy it pushed on low boost 460 to the wheels. But when I drove it when you were shifting the revs would drop so fast that shifting was difficult.

Say in 2nd going 60 at 6500 *shift* and by the time you move up to 3rd the engine is already at 2,500. Too light maybe, I don't have any specs or rock hard facts

I drive an '02 WRX with a catless uppipe and a light flywheel (14.3lb). Love it, no problems shifting, makes a noticable difference in acceleration.
