AHH BOV! Take it off! Take it off!

Lack of tune is the problem. ECU could be cutting timing or you could be getting used to the power. How have you been over boosting without some sort of boost controller?

Definitely change back to stock to see if that is the issue the HKS has been known to cause many problems with Evos

The stock one works great. And it doesn't make all those ridiculous noises.

The problem with the Evo is you get used to it and it feels slow. That's why so many Evo's get modified. Just keep buying speed parts like the rest of us and you will be ok.
