Modification sugestions

I just moved from a 04' mustang GT to a 05' EVO. I have to learn everything about another car now. I need your guys help with modding my new car. My evo currently has a buschurracing turbo back exhaust, buschurracing battery, forge manual boost controller, and forge bov. I dont want to max the car out but want to improve it over my mustang. I would like to be in mid 300's whp. What do I need to get there? What do you guys suggest? Thanks.

cams and im assuming it already has a tune if it has those mods. but you will need another tune anyways. With those mods that evo is already faster then a mustang GT btw unless its running less then mid high 12's

start looking at a clutch/flywheel you want to put in btw.

Can you take a picture of the engine bay?

GSC S1 cams
MR metal bov
hallman mbc 23 PSI "93 octane"
Buschur Downpipe/testpipe 3"
RnR 3" catback exhaust
HKS RS intake
AMS fmic
AMS Licp
Ets Uicp
Fuel pump 255 walbro
Tein s tech
Stock rims "kuhmo estas MX tires"
Ebay o2 housing
MR SS exhaust manifold
Stock Evo9 turbo
ACT clutch/ Prolite Flywheel
Jestr Tuned.

Thats my mod list, but its also on a evo IX im expecting around 350-360 but # are just that #'s.


Ill go ahead and do a small write up for you so you can keep it if you ever have questions.

never boost over 21 psi on 91octane or 23 on 93octane.

when you step on the gas and your rpms jump up and go back down while your flooring it, you need a new clutch.

You only hitting 11 psi probably a leak or something not hooked up right with the MBC

Use OEM fluid in xfercase, I use Mobil 1 synthetic oil 10w30 thats what my area recommends so check or you should actually know that by now.

i use BG 2 in the tranny smooths better gets ride of 5th gear lockout and obviously gonna wear the tranny down faster.

Dont dump your clutch at 5k you feather it out.

anything i missed guys?

wow, thanks for all the help. Its not faster than my mustang. I had cams, gears, headers, and so on. The pics can be seen on my myspace. www.myspace.com/ryanreed44 click pics to seen them

kaonashi-I am running 20 psi now with 94 octane. I was told not to run over 20 psi on a stock tune. (If its stock). The clutch seems after market becuase it shatters a little bit like a stage II, it dont slip though. Thanks for the oil, I was wondering what to run.
