I also have a yamaha 05 R6
Not a newbie thou, had a few other cars- cavalier on nitrous (first car),
EG 93 civic hatchback with GSR motor swap and all bolt ons and jdm blingness and also owned a 03 Sube WRX with all the bolt ons and a FP18g turbo.

Welcome aboard! Cavalier on the squeeze? That's baller territory. We'll be out at the track on December 6 (maybe 7). If you're out come and hang, we'll have some pop-ups, we'll be taking video and other good stuff. Peace out.

Hey man, glad you signed up. It was nice to meet you. Sorry we missed you on the cruise, we went to get gas and I was asking about you but people thought you guys had already headed towards PCH We'll do better at the next one - we're going to move to a location that wants us there and then do another cruise. Hopefully I'll see you at the meet in December, I love your car

It looks great, I especially like the top picture The #'s are pretty stout too. What do you think it's good for in the quarter?

If my Protege 5 ever gives up, hopefully many years from now, I'd seriously consider an Evo for my "practical car" . . . especially if E85 becomes readily available.

No idea what I'd personally run in it (have not dragged in years) but to give you a estimate of the car, other guys are running mid/low 12's with this set up.
One guy ran his car with 320ish whp with just the reflashed ecu (stock intake, exhaust and everything) and ran a 12.3@110mph
Fastest stock turbo is in the 11's with a couple more bolt ons then me, not tuned (hes using a boost controller)
The car is very new still (new motor from previous evos). Mods are just starting to pour out. But from all the tuners they are showing this motor is making more power with simple mods then previous evos. (which helps make up for its extra pork!)
and there are a couple upgraded turbo Evo x' running high 10's and low 11's on the stock engine!
AMS just won the USCC challenge in there bolt on/turbo upgrade Evo X pushing 480whp on the stock motor!
No ones blown a motor from to much boost/power yet, motor seems stout (forged pistons,rods, crankshaft) but only time will tell since its still so new and the highest milage modded Evo X is around 20k miles
