10.5 Hotside's..... ANy power difference?

I am looking to maximize the power from my 03 Evo, would this and possibly a SS Tubular manifold offer me some more power or would it be a waste considering the cost.


I can get a 10.5 Housing for about $250 with studs.


No idea how much to install it.

Yes absolutely, 10.5 hotside alone can give 20hp.

Really? SO I make 347WHP on pump in my Evo, so I can expect 360+ with the addition of this mod AND Dyno tuning?


What about those SS DNP style manifolds?


Thanks, looking for back to back dyno numbers if possible, tuner testimonies would be great.

most people say it takes a lot of work to get it to work properly. does this mean it requires fabrication or cutting? i mean thats a pain not just taking the Dp off etc. right? i wish there was a tutorial for this...er... is there? i will go check. but 1+ on the question about power.

You should not have to fabricate anything for a 10.5 hotside install. It should just replace our 9.8 outlet.

I agree - The only thing I felt was slower spool

well 15WHP is a worthy mod. I am hoping to add the 10.5 housing and a SS manifold and a Bigger FMIC and larger injectors and THEN dyno tune. I am wondering if I will notice any difference?
