Yeah. I mean, c'mon, everyone knows warp-9 is faster than warp-8 ... err ... wait a minute.

That's only on "Moon Dynos". The rest have to rely on Mach VIII vs. Mach IX

Kinda like Newtonian Physics vs. Quantum

I hope everyone is using the correct gear ratios... since they changed slightly in the IX, right?

I hereby officially rename the Evo IX's turbo "scramjet".

Also, this post may, or may not, exist until you read it.

IX Tuning

@Shiv
Thanks for the response. Well I had one last question. I have a Injen CAI
coming in this week, and a Full Turbo Back Tanabe G Blue Exhaust system coming in about a month, will I need another reflash after putting these on, or will they still make power? Or will they mess with you reflash tuning?

It's a little different. So little that some people may not notice

@Shiv

I decided that I will come down, and I confirmed my appointment at 12, on Saturday.
I wanted to buy your test pipe also but Calvin says hes out, but he will try to look for one. If you can find me one that would be great, I dont care if its out of your test Evo. =)

Question

Shiv -

Just a few questions

- How many IX's have you done now?
- What kind of variances have you seen between them?
- Are you ready yet to do mail order flashes on the IX?
- How much will you have to detune the mail order flash compared to the results in this thread (93 octane)?
- Is a Mid-Atlantic stop possible on your World Tuning Tour 2006?

Thanks,
Josh

Yeah, I think I saw that thread, thanks meanmud. I went up there last year to have Shiv tune my then brand new 05 STi. That tune ran strong for over a year, and now that I have a IX, I'm ready for the Shiv treatment again. TT is about a 3-3.5 hour drive each way from D.C. ... a bit long but doable if it's my only option.

Power from IX and Options??

Shiv -

Hey I just got an 06' MR and would like to boost HP over the 350 whp / 350 wtq level? What modifications beside TBE and Flash are available for the 06 / MIVEC? Haven't the Japanese modifiers been playing with MIVEC for awhile, do they have cams yet?

If you are working on pieces, when do you think they will hit the market ??

Thanks !

chris

^ Intakes, Fuel Pump, Fuel Injectors, MBC, and I'm not sure what else will work on the IX. I believe an alcohol kit may work. Cams, not yet as far as I know.
