he had PROcede on his, heads, exhaust, downpipes, and a few other mods he mentioned.
This is not a heavily modded Evo. It's barely a stage one..which includes a JDM IX BOV if the Evo is an VIII, since it doesn't hold boost well. Also includes downpipe, test pipe or hi flow cat, catback, boost controller, and a tune of some sort. Stage 1+ would include cams.

Heavily modified would've included a bigger turbo and/or stroker kit.

Did he even launch the car from a dig? If he did a 2 step launch, there would be no way you would've won. Not to sound arrogant, but I think the Evo owner didn't know what to do with his car. No knowledgable Evo owner would waste money on getting header unless you just want it for show. Installing is a bitch, and they crack a lot too, and they add minimal power for the cost. And PROcede? I'm surprised there are SoCal guys still using that with the cheaper route of ECU Flash. Most just use that as a paperweight now since no one would want it in their Evo.
