what's going on fellas. As the tittle saids my goal is to reach 400+ Hp
i have a 2003 evo 8 with 83k on the clock. My question is do you guys
think ill make it, or am i missing something. I will be keeping the parts i
have, but if im missing something i will be getting it. I'll be tuning on
93 octane. My set up is as follows. Thank you so much.

not on 93, but E85 would do it. read my sig. list and I am around 410-420whp, 89,000 miles, stock block (ARP headstuds and stock head gasket at 65xxx, over boosted)

 

ok kool thanx .

 

i got a meth kit if your interested. lmk

 

Is it the new FP 73HTA Green turbo or the old FP Green, big difference. With the new FP 73HTA Green you should be close to 400 HP (Dynojet) with your mods on 93 octane, and over 400 HP on E85.

It's possible on 93 but you might consider getting a different BOV because you're probably going to have to run quite a bit of boost. The stock BOVs start to leak around 25. I would also highly recommend getting that stock manifold ported or going with a high qaulity tubular. The manifold will definitely help with the mid-range and top-end HP.

 

Im in the look out for a after market manifold right now. And as far as the bov i might do the same.

 

E85 is availible is your best mod you could do. I wouldn't do Meth... It is to dangorous!

mods list looks good, but two recommendations, swap hks 272 for somethin more aggressive, i did that and its a proven fact they leave peak power on the table, and maybe swap the 3.0" for 3.5", i say that because about 400ish is sometimes where a 3.0" will start to heatsoak, if I know you like I know most people once you hit 400, that thrill wont last forever then youll want more, 3.5" gives you room to grow into the 500s+. but like ^^ guy said, e85 will help get you there too, with that setup.
good luck

 

If you get a good Meth set-up with the correct fail safes its extremely safe.

 

Becareful what you say... I have seen a lot of motors blow because of failed fail safes. I almost lost a motor because of that.

I will say it again! DON'T USE METH!!! The only way I would use Meth is if it was my last resort and I was like 20k ft altitude on 91 oct. Then I would use meth so I could make more than 200whp. Meth is borrowed time

Again I will say "with the correct fail safes" it is perfectly safe.

I have the safe injection which will light up a bright led and let me know its not working and will also throw my boost down to wastegate pressure.

I also have the tephramod that will flash my engine light if I start knocking and also throw my boost down to wastegate pressure. Doesnt get much safer than that. I undertstand you had a bad experience with meth. But I have personally installed and tuned tons of meth setups and yes I have had parts fail plenty of times but thats why you take the extra step to make sure you have really good fail safes.

It seems like everyone either loves or hates meth.

 

With e85 you should have no problem

 

you def have enough fuel to make 400. turbo will too. a manifold will def help and e85 should put u over 400.

 

Lil by lil im adding a few diffrent things to help so as for reading some threads on here. Thanx for the response fellas maybe someone else has the same question and is looking for a few answers.
