Evo 8 upgrades
Evo 8 upgrades
I have a few questions on near future upgrades for my car. My car is now approaching 88k miles.
Current mods are listed below in the signature.
I need advice on what I should install next. Would I benefit from a Walbro 255hp fuel pump and a new FMIC?
Since I already have Megan headers and Megan tbe would it be safe to say there is already a Megan 3" down pipe already installed? If not I was looking at installing one. I am also looking at adding a Megan o2 housing if that will help also.
I run 93 octane as well.

Buschur Upper I/C and Buschur FMIC would be my next upgrade. You will also see gains out of the 02 housing. I would assume the Megan would be 3 Inch.
After the Intercooler, I would do the fuel pump and larger injectors if you decide. Then cams.

As far as the downpipe goes, it's easy to see if you have the stock or aftermarket one. So I'd plan on getting those done next, then intercooler pipes with intercooler. Fuel pump, injectors, cams, then the list goes on. A new tune as well.
I know everyone is against ebay FMIC, I have one and I have made good power. Unless you are shooting for really high HP I would think the ebay XS power FMIC would be Ideal. For sure go with a walbro 255 pump. Just my .02

I've actually seen tests, I believe it was done by TTP but don't quote me on it, where that particular FMIC makes less power than OEM. It's highly inefficient. Bigger does not always mean better.
Here is what i would do for best gains: Walbro 255 -> Injectors -> BOV -> ARP Headstuds -> E85 -> Tune. Can't beat that combo, will see 80-90 whp vs 20-30 with the IC/piping, and will cost less!
