I have been meaning to post this up but have not had much time lately. This is MY car, and the way it was tuned for the showdown at E-town. It ran 11.62 and 120mph that day..

Mods:
MBC
GSC S1
Intake
Exhaust
LICP
FMIC

Things worth noting:
Ported EVO9 turbo and manifold with upgraded actuator, E85 Fuel, The car weighs 3420 with me in it and running on fumes (it's heavy). The car holds 25psi at 7000 RPM with the stock evo9 turbo and an MBC surprisingly..

 

nice petey. how come you're posting this up now? haven't you had this setup for awhile?

 

Good to see some honest Dyno results..

Good Results guys!

 

yeah about a month, I was bored today and finally remembered to get my graph..Only thing intresting about the graph is the boost that the stock turbo was able to maintain with a mbc..

 

Hahaha.... You must be upset about those florida boys. I feel ya man. Petey is as honest a guy as you can find. I think the boost is impressive as well. Have you thought about trying Ecu controlled boost? I already have the GM boost control solenoid in my car but that new GRIMSPEED one caught my eye as well. What do you think?

 

By the way Petey, I'm still using my Hallman MBC. I haven't done a boost log with the MBC to see how my Red holds the 25psi I'm tuned for.

 

I'm not surprised ...what is your max boost spike? 31psi? Car looks strong

 

I Love my ECU controlled boost

 

Grimspeed works very well but the vacum fittings are short, zip ties a MUST

 

Yeah 31psi that run, however I had had the stock turbo up to 37psi before.. hp stays the same but it makes a pretty serious tq. spike

 

Nice Petey,

Yea the 9 turbo + E85 is a great combo for the Evo 8's. I actually got a Evo 9 turbo on a 8 to hold 25psi to 8k.

You have the 5 spd in there now too right?

yessir, I have a 3 port that has been sitting in my trunk for 6 months now, need to install that **** but I am skeptical it will hold any more boost with how my wg adjusted in such a manner lol..Mabye on a cooler day This year is gonna be the last hoorah for the stock turbos on my car though lol

All in all I gained about 20hp with the evo9 turbo and porting and licp..Can't really say I was expecting too much

 

Ecu boost control should get you to around 1-2psi more at redline(i think you're going gm or grimmspeed?/!?)

 

It might not hold more up top but you will hold more in the midrange to 6k for sure. btw I edited my post above, I meant 25. not 27.

 

It will hold more boost even with an nicely preloaded wastegate(i am on a mbc only cause i had issues with map switching and ecu boost)
