took the e55 to the track.
Modded with stage 3/4 evosport on 19" ps2's. I was at irwindale 1/8th mile track.
Best time of the night was:
2.021
5.336
8.017
91.31
My previous best when it was stock was with a 1.8 60', I ran an 8.00 @ 88.XX. It seems that now, it's harder to launch which is killing my ET, but the MPH is good, definately shows a HP increase.

1/8th mile is fun, 1/4 is better, but to get to a good 1/4 track in socal, I have to drive 140 miles.

Give us your impressions of the evo cooling package (how long has it been on the car, performance, noise level if noticeable, etc.)
