That's weird I am also from CO and don't have this problem with my GT4088. Which turbo do you have exactly? And by who?

Oh an who is your tuner and what shop do you go to? An Evo with a TS GT40 in Boulder is not a normal evo and I have not seen this car so I am very curious now. What is your name?

agree

i didnt know RNR was still around!! or that they made a twinscroll kit. post pics of your engine bay and dynochart

ive been disappointed in the T4 twinscroll S200SX turbos, they just dont impress. The T3 twinscroll S200s are very impressive however - two completely different turbos

300ftlbs by 4250rpms and then things get silly after that... Dyno chart and AEM logos were already posted on the other TS thread...

Thats because its not in CO yet :P I'm bringing it up here the 26th so I'd love to get together with a few of you guys. Ill have to snap some shots when I get her up here. It was tuned by Pruven Performance, but once it gets here, I'll be taking it to Harvey at the Boost Creep LTD. I think we're going to be doing a 35r ts.

That isn't a twin scroll setup The turbo may be but the manifold isn't!

Interesting that's what you found. I was looking at the S200 and S200SX and just from wheel sizes it seemed like the S200 would be the better turbo. That and it's like 2" shorter, making it much easier to fit.

Do you have any results to share from a non-variable lift 2.0L?

yeah.. it would. Still learning here, and that was a good way to learn something the hard way. Especially when you're getting ripped off. sick.. Public embarrassment will tend to cause you to remember things better.

Well. Time to sell this setup and start from scratch.
Cheers

Dude of course we would love to have meet up with us.

Harvey is a good dude and I was at his dyno having tobz tune my car. You do know Harvey really doesn't do Evo's right. He has done them but he mostly does subies. I would suggest getting together with Tobz (recommended by Buschur) and have him do it.

Tobz is getting a dyno very very very soon and then it will be on like donkey Kong. But if your mind is set on Harvey I have nothing but good words from him. But you don't buy lambo to put ebay parts on it. Take the car to the best tuner that's been proven.

Join us on Coloradoevo.com if you havn't already. there's more of us on there.

Yeah, I met Harvey though a couple friends of mine (all subies lol) and I'll jump on those forums stat! I know Harvey doesn't usually do Evos but ive seen the results on a few that he has done and all were fantastic. I'll have to check out Tobz for sure.

I've been going to school here for a bit now. The cars just back home. Ill be stoked that some of you guys are around here because I've got a lot on my plate with this car already. Need to get the tranny pulled and replace 4th gear and a 3rd gear synchro, and I need to sell this turbo and get something smaller on it and tuned. I would love to pick you guys' brains and see where the best places to get this stuff done around here is. She needs some work. I'm fairly new to evos, so this will be sick to have you guys around
