Is yours bone stock? Its usually lightly modded evo's that free up some power restrictions and put you into higher load cells. You'll need to boost leak test it. A coupler that connects to the intake of the the turbo and apply compressed air until you hear it hissing out of the leaking spots. Fix leaks and repeat until you dont hear any hissing... up to about 25-30 psi.

needs tuned, thats all.. theres nothing wrong with it. i can convert you to v7 maps for dirt cheap if you have the neccessary hardware for it. wideband, tactrix cable, etc.

if not give me the rom ill remove the boost cut and you can be on your way. free
