Skunk2 Stocking Order Huge Savings, Fast Shipping!!!
Jan 23rd
I get emails, pm’s and phone calls several times a week asking what cams and valvetrain we suggest. For the last few years Evans Tuning has been almost exclusively selling, using and testing with Skunk2 products. From all of the dyno testing that I have done the Skunk2 cams have made the best power, best idle and overall have been the best engineered. Our top selling Skunk2 camshaft has been the Tuner Series Stage 1 Camshafts. It has stock idle, stock drivability and makes an additional 20-30whp increase in power over ITR and CTR cams in turbo applications. The Pro Series Stage 1 Camshafts have been our second best selling camshaft. The Pro 1 cams are geared toward cars running GT35R sized turbos and larger. There is 300-500 rpms quicker spool and 50-150whp gains over ITR and CTR cams. The Pro 1 cams require cam gears in order to properly dial the correct centerlines on the cams for best power and idle quality. Our biggest issue with Skunk2 products is keeping them in stock! Every spring we get an influx of orders placed for Skunk2 cams, valvetrain, cam gears, intake manifolds, etc. Every spring we run out of stock very quickly, and Skunk2 gets backordered for weeks at a time! We have decided to double our stocking order with Skunk2 to gear up for the increase in spring sales. What this means for you as the customer is deeper discounts, no wait time and fast shipment to your door step. More >
Injector Dynamics 1000cc Saturated Injectors
Jan 19th
If you have not yet heard, the new Injector Dynamics 1000cc Saturated injectors are probably one of the best things to happen to the aftermarket scene in quite some time. I have tuned over 1000+ cars in the last 9 years being a professional EFI tuner. I have encountered many cars that have just ran poorly due to the specific fuel injectors that they were using, even after tuning. This can be attributed to poor atomization, inconsistency in fuel delivery between injectors and increased dead time using a saturated injector driver to drive a low impedance fuel injector. Most of issues attributed with poor fuel injectors are lean misfiring at idle (usually associated with a “popping” noise from the exhaust), rough partial throttle drivability at low throttle conditions (due to slow response time at low millisecond opening/closing) and hard starting.
Evans Tuning 09' Yearly Outlook
Dec 29th
Looking ahead to 2009, there are a lot of great things in the works here at Evans Tuning! We have several of our own products in the testing stages right now that will be released shortly, as well as updating and expanding our online catalog and forum.
While drag racing has always been in our blood, we had taken the 08′ season off to “take a step back” and re-evaluate what our next project is going to be. After much diliberation we are currently working on the ultimate street turbo honda, and should have a well documented build for the public by spring. With any of our cars at the shop, we are working with several manufactuers to do some extensive product testing that should have very encouraging results. As always, we will share our testing results to give you options in putting together your turbo builds. We are hoping to bring innovation to our project that will redefine and “set the bar higher” for what to expect from a street car.
Evans Tuning is very excited about what 2009 will bring to you as the consumer, and what we will be able to share with the community.
