the 1.25" felt like it stifled throttle response somewhat, but the 1.5" and stock felt the same or at least there wasn't an obvious difference.

I do plan to go to an upgraded manifold, but only when I step up to something a lot spicier than a stock frame.

If you want what I feel is the ultimate road racing setup for this car, you want this:

Damn that is an amazing turbo set-up. If only I had $5000 to drop hahaha. So for the time being i'll stick with a ported stock manifold

Yeah, there are some dyno results laying around that are amazing. One of these days I will have this kit. Ported stocker with BBK-Full BB is going to be sweet man, make sure to post dyno results when you get it put together.

@ blackenedwings: are you by any chance running the CBRD downpipe/02 housing combo on your Evo?!

Yeah I've had one since they came out. Quality is top notch, perfect fitment. Solid results too, but when I fitted it I changed few things at the same time so I can't give you numbers for the o2/front alone.

Currently i'm running the Titek 02 housing on my car with a Perrin downpipe. Both have 3 inch piping. I'm curious if the CBRD combo pipe would provide better power gains as well as quicker spool for a stock frame turbo. If not then i'm happy to stick with my Titek/Perrin combination as its working just fine for me right now.

I'm currently running a MAPerformance o2 dump, but I'm having boost creep problems so I'm working with Agile Auto and CBRD to sort out a temporary measure until I can hopefully go to Chad's LMP kit. We'll see how things go.

Damn that's unfortunate. Best of luck getting it all figured out

What intake were you using for the BBK Full when you had it?! My buddy has a BBK Full and he's using the Perrin intake/foam filter and it provides great results. I too was gonna go that route unless you had a better suggestion

I liked the BBK on the stock 2.0. I imagine the Green would be the same. Although on a 2.4 the Black is the way to go, better than stock spool and a lot more power/torque.
