CA Evo 8 Build

Hello,

I am planning to set my Evo up for a beefed up Daily Driver with a conservative tune for the 400-430 hp range on E85.
Here is what I got so far


Installed
Megan Downpipe
Catback Exhaust
MAP Intake

What I have to install
Ported OEM Manifold
Ported HTA71 Turbo
MAP Hood O2 Dump
Test pipe
Grimspeed 3 port BC
AEM Wideband
Walbro 255
FIC 1220 cc injectors
http://fuelinjectorclinic.com/mitsub...1-9/IS126-1220
GSC S2 Cams

ACT XT Clutch Kit
ACT Streetlite Flywheel
ARP Flywheel Bolt

All new exhaust gaskets, new rear main seal when replacing clutch. New O-rings for injectors.

Is there anything else I am going to need or should purchase? Doing all of these after I replace my clutch and flywheel. Cars been down for a couple weeks after clutch went out, also bought redline cocktail for tranny flush and diaqueen for trasnfer case\Diff.

Almost an identical set up to mine except i have a 9.

Have done all that you noted except for the ported mani / O2 setup. DynoJet no.s were 459/400

Your list looks good to me

Thank you, just making sure because it’s very easy to get carried away sometimes when everything is apart/down.

Totally understand. I recently added the S2's & the HTA71 but i should have done the O2 housing as well

But, all in all, the EvO is running super well & just love the cams.

Hey, when you get tuned, post up in the Dyno Results forum so we can see how ya did

Personally, I'd orefer HFC over test pipe. But it costs 10-15 whp to be environmentally friendlier. Lol
How are you planning to port your manifold and turbine housing? What about intercooler and pipes (especially the lower intercooler pipe)?
Also, don't forget to upgrade valve springs and retainers with S2 cams.

I have an O2 housing with your name on it. You just need to decide when. Lol

I would add an evo x map sensor, so you can log and control boost directly through the stock ecu. An omni 4-bar is also an option but with your goals you shouldn't need it. Also +1 on at least a Lower intercooler pipe, the stocker is very restrictive.

One more thing. Check your throttle body seals for boost leak.

Injen LICP is pretty restrictive. Might want to pickup an ETS or something different. I did and was surprised at how tiny one of the bends is compared to the ETS one. Stoked to see your results, I've got a similar setup I'm putting together soon! But I'll be on stock cams. How much boost do you plan on running?

Also, I dont think the Injen UICP will fit with any intake besides the Injen one. They have their own BOV location made for each other.
