This will limit the amount of space for the diaphram inside the bov, thus helping to hold boost better...So, you are SLIGHTLY crushing/denting/ the top of the bov..

This does not work on all bov's

 

I dont know ig it is a direct swap or not. I beliebe Buschur said something about needing a different turbo outlet pipe since the 9 had a bigger compressor cover...This could have just been for his 20g-9 though.

Just get the 20g-9 which should produce even more power than the standerd 9 will..we will find out soon with the release of the 20g-9 in a couple of weeks..

 

Will it ever be possible to transform our cars into an IX?

How much will a 9 head and ecu cost? Besides turbo thats the only diff right

 

Basically the 9 with simple mods is equivalent an 8 with same mods PLUS cams, alcohol, 20G.


The 8 was way overrated 03 and now from nowhere the 9 comes out with 150 extra HP with simple bolt ons. I'm going to go throw up, I fell sick

A stage1 IX with alcohol gives results that I am still currently modding for.

*i need to get an evo, even if it isn't a IX, soon before i go crazy*

 

Wow, the new Evo seems almost too good to be true! I can't wait to see what happens as more people start adding cams, turboback and turn up the boost on their IXs. Good job Al, and

 

so how much is that going to cost ya for a new turbo upgrade

 

I don't think there is a cam upgrade option for mivac yet.

If I got the 9 it would just have, TB, MBC, drop-in, alcohol, and of course DYNOFLASH custom tune. I would be content. The question I have is would DF be able to tune an 8 with a mivac head and ecu added.

 

The top of the BOV is pushed down increasing preload on the spring.

No it's hte 9 with simple mods is the equivalent of an 8 with same mods plus the 9 turbo and maybe cams. Why would the 9 turbo make more power than the 20G? The 20G is based of the 9 turbo. The Mivec head is more for lowend and midrange, not so much high end. It is mostly the turbo. So to rephrase your statement. The 9 is equivalent to and 8 with a 9 turbo swap, and maybe cams.
I don't even think alcohol should be included as you don't need to run higher boost if you are running the same turbo as the 9 or bigger.

 

MIVEC is intake. If I'm not mistaken, Al said his customer was going to add "272 exhuast cam and a full 3" exhuast next week to see if 400 whp is possible" back in post 55. That's what I call exciting! Phsst, fq400 what!

 

WOW thats Pretty Serious... Why cant the MIVEC on the intake take another cam?

 

I was going to reply to this, but I kind of see what your implying, interesting. We will need to see the numbers that VIIIs put down with the IX turbo. If it indeed is mostly the turbo, then it is possible that VIIIs will put down some extremely impressive numbers, since they already have Cams and other mods installed on the car which are not yet available for the IX. So I guess will have to wait and see.

Anyways back on topic, these numbers are simply mind boggling. These numbers are made with the simplest of bolt on mods, probably stage 1 of a modified EVO.
Never would I have imagined that just an Intake, Cat-Back Exhaust , Flash, and MBC could produce such impressive numbers (375WHP on 100oct), just imagine how much will be made with a full turboback/test pipe, my guess is that this car could see another 15-20WHP. Thats around 390WHP. Just imagine the possibilities. I know Cams are in the development, HKS, Precision Dyno, and a couple others are already working on them and should be releasing them in the near future. Right now IX is basically using parts more designed for the VIII (the fuel pump is a good example, a better fuel pump must be made for the IX or a fuel pump upgrade may not even be as necessary), and just imagine how much power will be made with parts designed just for the IX. Imagine the power that will be made on this car when it one day gets Cams, Cam Gears, FMIC, Intercooler piping, Injectors, better Fuel Pumps, Alcohol Kits, and etc.

What amazes me also is the consistency, another EVO IX (Intake, MBC, and Flash) on the same dyno running similiar boost made an impressive 325WHP/360WTQ on pump gas. With a Cat-Back and 100oct, it too would produce similiar numbers as this IX. There seems to be a pattern arousing-
Flash/MBC/Exhaust/Intake= 330-350WHP (pump gas) Dyno Jet Flash/MBC/Exhaust/Intake= 370-390WHP (100oct) Dyno Jet
Flash/MBC/Exhaust/Intake= 290-310WHP (pump gas) Mustang or DD
Flash/MBC/Exhaust/Intake= 330-350WHP (100oct) Mustang or DD

These numbers come from what I have just been observing so far with all the different IX dynos, so it's up to you what you want to believe, but these are just my observations.
