Hey guys, I just bought my 03 Evo 8 and I love it. I'm looking to get around 400-450hp for a daily driver. I bought it with a couple of mods.

Let me know what you guys are running to get around those numbers. Thanks!!

 

Seeing that this is your 1st post.

I politely suggest that you spend time searching, researching and reading the volumes of knowledge on this site.

Then when you have exhausted that, find a tuner that you like and discuss with them what your goals are for your car.

 

Prob cheapest way to get 400-450whp would be E85 tune and FP Black turbo (on sale for like $1100) and of course a turbo back exhaust. If you want to keep it 91 octane then I would add cams (GSC S1 or S2).

 

Hey thanks for not roasting me guys haha I appreciate it. I can say that most guys I've talked to are pretty chill.

 

you will need pretty much what i have plus a turbo upgrade.

450 is not going to happen on the stock 9.8 turbo. not even on e85. with my mod list with my stock 9.8 turbo on 93 i was only able to make 340whp/320wtq.

 

Add the following to your list:
Intercooler
Exhaust
HTA 71
GSC S2's or Kelford 272's
E85

You have stock like spool and run like a bat out of hell and reach your goals.

 

Evo 9 turbo (if you want to go a cheaper route), set of cams, exhaust, injectors, e85, and a good tune. That should get you around the 400ish mark.

 

Go to buschurs website And follow upgrade path. Parts are a little pricy,because they are the best! Look around don't buy junk parts because their cheap. Buy parts that all work together. I run all buschur parts with a Fp red journal bearing turbo. I don't drive like a pro . My best 1/4 mile time is 10.74 and best trap speed is 134 . Buy the best once and go fast!

i see u asked for hp and not whp so its definitely easy with a few bolt ons.

bigger injectors, pump, e85, s2 cams, 71hta turbo or bigger, good tuner. is what i would do, or
