You may not gain much peak on an evo9, but the overall shape of the curve and smoothness of it along with some good mid range gains should be worth it. Just make sure you know that going in that your peak numbers may or may not change.

Locally we have seen cars do 20+whp pretty much across the board. Then other folks see no peak gains. The IX's are sort of all over the charts.

upgraded cams will add more hp so if you want more hp then upgrade them. Suggestion of GSC s2's

on the 8 at least the GSC S1 and S2 don't sacrifice any low RPM torque.
