Hi, Im from Québec and I just purchased my first Evo. Ive been dreamin of it for about two years.

The car seems to be modified on many way.

I need to know what are the mods in this car. All I know is the previous owner was named Herber and he was from Elmont, New York

* 03-04: 19.5 psi @ 3500 rpm, Tapering to 16psi @ 6500 rpm
* 05-06: 20.3 psi @ 3500 rpm, Tapering to 17psi @ 6500 rpm

Those are stock boost levels, you shouldn't be that low.

it sounds like the gauge is not working properly, because EVEN if it was running on wastegate boost it would not be 10 psi
