WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that compressor housing is the EXACT SAME housing used on the 9's. i matched the designation with the spec listed in the new Hyper Rev mag as well as looking at it on a friend's 9. i knew the turbos were different between the 8&9. this will also help people see why the 9 is making power from a relatively stock car... very nice pics

 

Really?

 

LOL welcome to yesterday!

 

So when is she going on?

 

So this will bolt directly up to an 8?

 

You will need and installation kit for this to work on your evo 8.

 

Is that lower pipe from BR? Nice pictures!

 

I didn't realize there was that much of a size difference. I wonder how long it will take someone on the 20G-9 to get into the 10s

don't forget to turn the wastegate turnbuckle all the way down so you won't have as much boost taper...

 

Yup! I'm wondering if I should get a "heatshield thing" like I have on my current BR lower ic pipe.

Old turbo is gone.. new turbo and other goodies will be installed after I get off work

 

nice

 

Thats odd. The flange on the turbo where it connects with the lower IC pipe is alot thinner on my turbo. Probably half as thin making it a bigger airflow path. Also i know my lower IC pipe that connects to the turbo is not stock either. Its the same diameter as the other stock IC pipes but it goes all the way to the turbo without being reduced at any point. Does anyone know what the stock diameter is on the turbo hole where the lower IC pipe connects?

 

dbdude: I'll measure mine when I get home in 3-4 hours..

I just got my manifold/o2/intake so I'll post up some pics of everything bolted together before I drop it in the car.

I want to personally thank Jarod and Nick for putting up with me lately.. I've been kind of high strung with all the excitement.

 

Cmon, man you know I love ya.

 

So what does the turbo/install kit cost? Nick if you could pm it to me?
