If that were the case on a stock-ish car, we'd all have one. Figure 3-4 consistent HP on a mildly modded VIII. Maybe.

You would be the only one.

First I must ask if that your Evo is stock or was it returned to stock? Most older Evo's are returned back to stock after modding.

Cams, are 100% essential to make power on a VIII, there is no question about it and no way around it. The gains are HUGE.

Aint that the truth! I've been tuned at 320whp and I'm already thinking about cams, upgraded valvetrain, turbo, bigger injectors, and a re-tune.....ahhhh it seems the tuning bug has bitten me yet again.
