My Evo book, tells me to put 98 octane fuel minimum!
It might be calculated different though... I dont know!
Can anybody tell me what are the differences... becouse it might help me to do the reflash!!!!
Im gonna come to Las Vegas in 2 weeks!

It has been reported that if you raise the boost in the euro and jdm ix the turbine will blow. It happened several times in UK, just check the lancer register forum. Just for the info, not to hate on the ix because it is a great car.Btw, usa 93 octane is like european 98.
Is this for real?
The only info i get about mods for my car is from you guys!
Will i have a problem with tuning my evo build for europe???

This is from a EVO IX brochure:
"On the GT, the turbocharger compressor
wheel uses magnesium alloy instead of
aluminum alloy while the turbine wheel
uses a titanium-aluminum alloy (a
factory-fitted option on the GSR). The
resultant decrease in rotational inertia
brings a dramatic improvement in
supercharging response and reduction
in turbo lag."
So, unless you specified the option, the GSR does not come
with Mg alloy.
