you havent installed it yet?

 

if anyone here knows exactly how hard of an instal is it?

 

No, I havn't installed it yet, in 2 weeks I'm planning on it after my other supporting mods come in, actually it's been sitting in my garage for 3 months collecting dust.

I'm doing a writeup of the install with pictures and all, so if you want to know how hard the install is, wait a couple weeks and you'll know.

 

It's a biatch.

 

the 10.5 is standard on all of the '05s right? Or am i smoking crack?

 

yes, you have a 10.5 hotside already you lucky SOB

 

A little more lag and more power? How much powr are we talking here?

 

well look at the difference between an 03-04 to an 05. not to mention it helps more every time you ad a mod.

 

5 hp and 12 or 16 lbs trq? Is that what the big craze is about?

I have a full exhaust, intake, 264's, custom dynoflash. Is this thing really gonna make that much more power with this set up?

 

If you just got the 10.5 hotside(don't forget the compressor cover is also different for the 05's!) Would you have to tune your ECU for that? I know it would help, I just want to know if it's necessary. Thanks.

 

it will hold boost to redline and not fall off, that is where the benefit comes in. not at 19 psi but at 25 psi at 7000 rpm. porting doesnt really work, you need a bigger actuator to hold boost on the smaller hot side.

Picture and part # as promised...



Enjoy!

 

You can order the 10.5 directly from the dealer ('05 model, I have the PN#)

 

Here is a link to the part number given earlier.

Seems alot more exspensive coming from a mitsu dealer.

$670 for regular price and $510 discounted.
Much cheaper from a shop.

 

That's the revised '05 model. It is more expensive than the previous 10.5
