What's next for the Evo? Help please?
I'm asking for your guys help and advice...
When I first got my car it only had an AEM intake and Autometer boost gauge...So I picked up a Tactrix cable and got my car tuned by Tamer @ 4WS Tuning. With only an AEM intake and hallman MBC @ 22psi 91oct...I DLL'd 260 WHP @ 6078 RPM & 249 lb -ft @ 5187 RPM....

After that I ordered a 3" down pipe 3" inch test pipe 3" QTP electric cutout and some exhaust wrap....So for my exhaust setup I have a 3" DP and 3" TP with a cutout and the downpipe is exhaust wrapped. I also ordered the ETS LP2 lower intercooler pipe...So now with my exhaust setup and ets lp2 tuned @ 22 psi 91oct i DLL'd 315 WHP @ 6734 RPM and 289 FT-LB @ 5000 RPM

My overall plans for the car is 600WHP on a 35r turbo but thats a little soon for that setup...
Some things i've been thinking about and have started....
I already have an extra intake manifold and throttle body to send to Buschur for porting and 65mm throttle body...
I've been thinking maybe I should try my luck with a evo 9 turbo ported and swain coated by PPI, PPI extreme ported and swain coated exhaust manifold, megan o2 housing, kelford 272s, e85.....
I plan on getting the ETS 3.5" FMIC and ETS short route UICP, APS twin vent bov...
What are some things you guys suggest?? THANKS IN ADVANCE!

an enternal dump housing if you can stand the noise. Music to my ears but some may think differently. Also what about valve springs and some ARP headstuds while you are installing the cams?

plus a megan o2 seems to have some pretty good gains
yeah i was surprised how much of a gain i saw with the exhaust and ets lp2....i thought around 300 whp but 315 is good!
