Another project :) Feel free to comment


STEP 1 - STOCK VERSION

316 HP at 6500 RPM


Stock test run: Tsukaba Circuit

- Handling: Curve diving, the handling is not that great. You need to slow down a lot to make the car turn... No suspension rigidity at all.

- Acceleration: Average acceleration. It needs to be improve...

Power and Speed Session:

Speed: Did an average 256.23 km/h (note: The top speed is bad even with a power like that).

Power Torque*:
- The car did a good 0'13.872 at the 400m
- Average 0'24.824 at the 1000m

*Note: The acceleration really needs improvements.



STEP 2 - TUNING & SETTING


Tuning

- Racing exhaust
- Racing brakes
- Port & Polish
- Engine Balancing
- ECU chip
- Triple plate clutch
- Racing flywheel
- Carbon Driveshaft
- Stage 3 Turbine kit
- Racing Intercooler
- Racing Tires: Medium (R3)
- Rigidity increased and refreshed
- Stage 3 weight reduction

- Original custom suspension by Mine's: Ride height: Front: 88mm/Rear: 88mm - Camber: Front: 2.6/Rear 1.6



Test run at Nurburgring

- First impression: The car is faster and accelerate much more. Fast gear changing and seems to go hit the top speed fast. The little problem of this car is that you can't really turn at high speed even with a custom suspension.
- Middle of the course: The gears are too close. Need to put larger gears to get a better top speed.
- Straight line: WTF !!!!!!!! 261 km/h ??????? Hell of a s-h-i-t car. Need a transmission badly.
- Lap time: 7'31.122 <--- ''Great time even if I did some 360s lol''



Power Torque

400m: 0'11.428 <--- ''HOLY **** ! Too close of 10''
1000m: 0'20.626 <--- ''Thats really really good''



Additionnal Test: Turbo Lag

The turbo is working on the 5th gear at 2500 RPM but starts pushing the car at 4000 RPM. Its not a big lag, but still to be improve.


STEP 3 - FIXING THE SETTINGS

- Transmission: Due to a big acceleration and close gears, the engine is hitting the revline too fast and makes a low top speed.. [[Adding a full custom transmission and setting the ''Auto-Setting'' to level 14]]

Test Course run: Test of speed after transmission fix: 308 km/h



STEP 4 - FINAL TESTS AND RESULTS


Test #1: Curving test at Tsukaba Circuit

Impressions: Really good car with awesome acceleration. The only thing still that the car don't want to turn makin me lose some time by slowing down.

Session Record: 0'56.669



Test #2: Nurburgring run

You would never believe me if I say that this thing is faster then my Skyline ? Well see this record by yourself:

Session Record: 7'15.441 <--- ''THE HELL THIS CAR HAS THE GODLIKE ACCELERATION.''


Test #3: Power & Speed

Power Torque:
- 400m: 0'11.377 <--- This is the best I could do. Really close from 10.
- 1000m: 0'20.406 <--- The Perfect Time.

Speed: 307.3 km/h



Final power: 513 HP


STEP 5 - Conclusion

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR Tommi Makinen Edition is something. Great power torque for an AWESOME ACCELERATION. A must to try for the 4WD lovers.
