Hi guys,
this is my first post here. I am Rishabh from Mumbai, India. I finally went and bought myself an Evo 7 after waiting for 3 long years for the opportunity. It was tuned in Dubai and is on its way to Mumbai now. Well I would like to know if this setup is alright and to increase Torque what else should I do?

1. Arias Forged Turbo Pistons
2. Tomei Forged Connecting Rods
3. ARP Head Bolts
4. Tomei Metal Head Gasket
5. Tomei Titanium Retainers
6. Tomei Valves & Valve Springs
7. Tomei Adjustable Cam Gears
8. Greddy T67 Turbo
9. Greddy Stainless Steel Manifold
10. Greddy Adjustable Wastegate
11. Greddy Blow-Off Valve
12. 255 Litre/Hr Fuel Pump
13. SARD High Flow Fuel Rail
14. Power Enterprise 1000cc Injectors
15. CPR Fuel Pressure Regulator
16. Greddy Oil Catch Tank
17. Trust Type R Adjustable Wastegate
18. Greddy Downpipe
19. Greddy 3" Titanium Exhaust System
20. Airnix Foam Filter Intake
21. Blitz Aluminium Radiator & Silicone Hoses
22. Trust Intercooler Kit
23. OS Giken Double Plate Clutch
24. TEIN Adjustable Coilovers
25. HKS Turbo Timer
26. Defi Link Gauges
27. Motec M800 ECU

I had also fitted Tomei 280° Camshafts but due to some problem according to the tuner he had to remove them and put the Original Cams. After all of these modifications my Dyno result was 441.1 HP @ 6737 RPM & 381.8 Lb- Ft @ 5352 RPM with 95 Octane Fuel. I am going to drive this car like a maniac always in the 8000 RPM Range. I have kept the RPM Limiter to 10000 RPM. Now I would like to know whether its safe to keep 10000 RPM as my limit with these modifications or should I keep it less. This car is going to be used for Drag as well as Circuit Racing as well as a Daily Driver in Heavy Traffic. Is there any way I can increase my Torque and also I have installed Anti-Lag by Motec. Is there any other modifications I should go for? Also is there any Semi Automatic Transmission availiable for the Evo 7 ???

Thanking you,
Rishabh

 

Also I forgot to mention I am runnig boost at 2.2 Bars.

 

Sounds like a beast, get some pics asap, as far as torque goes a stroker kit would be night and day difference

 

lol Yay another CRV driver! ;p

 

Well thanks alot. The car is on its way to Mumbai and then it will take a week to clear it in the Customs so hopefully by 1st week of Jan I should have the car. Will definately post pics soon.

 

Is there any other better Air Filter? I did not like the Airnix.

 

i would say go with an hks or buschur intake.

a stroker would definetely give you the torque you are looking for.

good luck and get pics up of your car when you can, it sounds nice.

 

Also can I use 100% Methanol in this setup?? Or I have to carry out some modifications for that as well.

 

Its not going to last going to 10,000 RPM playa

 

So then I should use it 9000 or 8000 RPM ???

 

Well you have a built head which is good and it can handle some high revs... (9300 or so), but if you want it to last, I wouldnt reccomend playing that high unless necessary, its just a lot of stress.

 

I am thinking of having another Engine built. Which tuning company in Japan would you'll recomend for gettin the engine made. Money no object job.

 

Well my personal preference of engine building would be Buschur who is here in the US. He did Shepherd's motor which has well over 1000HP.... hows 56psi+nitrous sound!!!

 

10,000 rpm at 2.2 bar seems like a perfect recipe for disaster on 95 octane fuel. The Greddy T67 does not like big boost especially on a standard thrust bearing it has if not upgraded. Run a Tomei 2.2 or a Magnus/Buschur 2.3 stroker bottom end to get that torque. You can retro fit the automatic transmission from the Evo 7.5 GT-A which also works as a semi auto but its a lot of work to do.
For a big chunk of money you can get Tomei to supply you a completely built engine to your specifications. PM me if you need help to get that. THey can supply you the 2.2 stroker engine with your choice of camshafts.

 

I would like to understand how do High Lift Cams actually help? I want only low down grunt and not lookin at top speed.
