I'm going to have a bit of money to throw at the engine of my evo 8 ($3500 total including timing belt $250 and a tune). Current mods are listed in sig. I'm looking to get around 450hp (on pump 93) all said and done once i go with an fp red, which i will purchase by end of summer. But in getting ready for the fp red i figure on going with this setup first and running on my stock turbo and hoping to get close to 400hp until i get the new turbo.

Walboro 255 hp
AMS fmic
NGK BPR7ES Plugs
ARP head studs
Cometic Head Gasket
Kelford 272 Cams
Megan Racing 02
Injen intercooler piping (getting from a friend for next to nothing)
Injen Intake Pipe (also getting from friend for next to nothing)
Hallman ES Boost Controller
Precision 880 injectors

Turbo Timer
AEM Wideband
AEM Boost Gauge
AEM EGT Gauge

Is there anything else im goign to need or would be better in place of these items to get the most hp on pump gas?

Thanks

 

Your not going to get close to 400 on pump with your stock turbo. But with the Red, you might be able to get to 450 on pump. Do You have E-85 in you area? If so, that's good for about 75 WHP with the right tune. You might also look into larger injectors, 02 Dump and a ported manifold.

 

Dont worry about O2 dump not worth spending the money on as of right now save it for bigger injectors at least 1250's and just have your Fac mani ported. Jump up to BPR8es's and if you can e85 then you should be fine for sure. You might be close to 500 on that esp. since you are down at sea level. Should be able to make bout 30-31 PSI since you have HG and Studs.

 

Ditch the 880s and get 1250s.
Also get a ported and coated exhaust manifold and O2 housing (or O2 dump).
What about an intake manifold or at least a throttle body?

With all those mods on a stock 8 turbo you would get maybe 350-360awhp on a dynojet at around 24psi. The Red should get you to about 450awhp with your mods plus what I added.

 

i say do this but i would say 1000cc injectors will be plenty ditch the cosmetic HG for a OEM one. port the fp red
