Talking Force-Fed/Epic Built IX 472/358 Stock block/Head

Customer came into us with his stock IX adn explained how like many evo owners that the stock set-up just wasnt doing it anymore. He told us it needed some more muscle and boy did he come to the right place. Initially we started David off with some AWESOME parts from ETS(two thumbs up), ARP, forge, Walbro, Kelford, and Hallman. But David had been eyeing up the 35r AFI kit on my car and explained he was really in search of 500hp. Well when all was said and done David could not leave without talking me out of my turbo kit off the shop car known famously as "NC Black Beast". Figures so since David is a sales manager for a local dealership. After all of the parts were installed our tuner Babi (Crewdawg130) threw her on the dyno and David quickly flew past his previous numbers of 305/289 to a final number on pump gas of 472/358 on straight 93.

Another satisfied customer for Force-Fed/Epic Motorsports
COMPLETE SLEEPER

Mods:
AFI 35rkit .63
Kelford 272 cams
ETS intercooler/UICP/Re-circ pipe (Amazing pieces, thanks MIKE)
ARP headstuds
Hallman Pro RX (amazing mbc, will be replacing my Blitz EBC soon)
STM mini battery(Thanks for bringing some down lol)
Forge RS BOV

Custom Tuned by Force-Fed/Epic Crewdawg130







Look at the green line and see at how the Hallman Pro RX gets into boost hard and holds boost ALL the way to redline. Remember this is a stock block/head/ecu IX with a small .63 hotside.

^ You think the Hallman Pro RX is the best MBC? I need to get rid of my HKS EBC because it sucks!

Yea, that’s what I call usable power. "Most" MBC give you that spike and then fall drastically at top end. You just can’t make good HP like that. That's why you see cars almost breaking 400 at 30psi.......????? When they’re really making 400 at 23-24. That lill spike only gives you good torque.

If you’re just raising the boost slightly over stock then the Rx with the ceramic ball is good, but if you’re going with 25+psi just get the pro. Regardless, Hallman FTMFW

You should see STM "Ricer" log their Hallman held FLAT boost all the way to red line....
