What he said...go elsewhere

Not to mention you said this shop specializes in HONDAS and NISSANS, WE (i.e. the evolutionm forum and vendors trying to help you) specialize in EVO'S. You really to take their word over a specialty shop/website? Just send me your money then. PM me for my paypal.

Probably, because there are no shops I know of that would slap a 40r on a dd car to run around 20psi of boost.

Ok let me explain the only reason i have the 40r is it was 400 dollars and my evo 9 turbo seals were bad. As for why i am only running 20psi thats what they said was safe i thought it was low mself brothers i am on your side on that one when the car made 537whp i was happy until i seen the numbers a guy on here with the same setup as me up here to the penny and made thaat same number without meth on less boost. All they keep telling me is about being safe but when i told them i wanted to go e85 and they hit me in the face with 2400 without injectors i was hurt. i knew something wont right so i came to all for help I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR ALL THE RESPONSES. i have had pm's and phone calls from you fellas i never thought this would be a 4 page topic i and my wallet thank you all

You got a 40r kit for 400$ O.o could have resold that and gotten something smaller and had some $$ for injectors and whatnot LOL. Anyway, I'd suggest getting that to a specialty shop - that set up should scream when tuned correctly- however you are going to be limited by rods (assuming that you DO care if your bottom end goes)

Best of luck!
