got my first real tuner 2006 exo 9 se a few months ago. the only mods i have done are a stage 2 excedy clutch and a greddy type z bov. it came with a tanabe medallion full exhaust. i am looking to slowly build my motor because i just had a good so im looking for good products at a decent price. and also looking at where i should start at with my build?

 

What's your goals?

 

Start with lots of reading.

 

Step 1: Ditch the Greddy Type Z BOV you have and get a recirculated DV (such as a stock evo 9 one or a dynapse DV). Venting excess pressure to the atmosphere will make the car run bad

 

There is a ton of great info on this site and a lot of knowledgable people. Research everything before you buy. Congrats on the new ride.

 

Congratulations. I would start with a wideband and boost gauge. I would then get intercooler piping and intake. Read this - https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...-100-time.html

 

My bov is recirculating I bought it with the adapter. I have injen intercooler piping and a intake already. My goal is to build a strong motor so eventually I can push more boost and get up to around 400 HP to wheels and still using 93 gas. My car is a daily driver

 

400hp is a good goal that can be achieved with the stock block and a good tune. If you are limited to 93 octane then I would suggest aftermarket cams and a turbo. Look into forced performance and maperformance turbo upgrades.

 

What about engine wise. My motor is almost at 60,000 miles. I want to build a strong motor to.

 

60k miles is nothing and the stock block can handle 400whp no problem

 

Yea I know but I still want to build the motor up

 

Don't take this the wrong way. But judging by the amount of knowledge you have already displayed I would recommend calling a shop and telling them your goals. The 4g63 is a very stout motor. In stock form they have made over 700whp.

Building your motor for 400whp is a waste of time and money. Although if you do build it now, when 400whp starts to feel slow you will already have a built motor and not have to worry about that.

 

I say just slowly build up the motor first. Cams or a Turbo. A stock block Evo with a decent size turbo is fast enough. Then when you want go all out and build it
