I tried to search this... god knows I have seen similar threads, but I wasn't able to find anything, so hear goes...

Quick question to the group...

What are the exact parts needed to put an Evo 9 turbo onto a 2003 Evo 8?

Thanks for your help!






PS - Search function on this site = pile of crap

 

you need a evo 9 conversion kit.... belive it comes with gaskets..new j pipe and new oil lines

Negative, you do not "need" to buy a kit.

With some bending and common sense you can make it work perfectly.

 

The only thing you actually need is a IX outlet pipe (J-Pipe) and actually you can get around that by torching and bending the VIII one out of the way of your starter solenoid.

 

Thanks guys!

I am trying to move quickly on a 9 turbo for sales and the guy told me, "it comes with everything you need"... so, i just wanted to make sure it really in fact had everything I would need.

 

Couldn't you just purchase a 10.5 hotside and accomplish the same thing? Or were you after the whole turbo setup?

 

^Evo 9 turbo has a slightly larger compresser side.

 

you might as well buy one of the install kits since you will need the new gaskets when you swap the turbo.

 

I purchased this one and it works great.
