400 hp Lancer Evolution 8 "Red Wolf"

Recently just bought my Evo about 2 months ago, a little beat up but fixable.

Starting this thread so this can be a reference for others, and I like keeping track of the mods I have dont and a history on my car. Aiming for 400hp in the next 4-6 months and keep it at that for a daily driver until I pay it off. Thanks for the support questions or concerns would be great thanks for looking.

Current mods/Future mods underlined
Stage 2 transfer case
Injen intercooler piping & Filter
Ebay O2 housing
Ebay 3" Turboback exhuast
ARP headstuds
1000cc Injectors - not sure what brand
AEM Eugo
Prosport Boost Guage
Prosport Engine Temp Guage
Ebay Intercooler
Hallman Pro MBC
Self Tuned

Pictures Coming Soon

Go buy a treadstone IC.. I'm running 515awhp atm with no issues. They're cheap and they're made in the usa. They're probably the best bang for your buck of any IC I've seen so far. I will be pushing mine to 600awhp here soon.

How come you don't want to go short route UICP? (ETS all the way dude!)

buy the id1000's they are the same price but a much more effiecient injector. i had a set of new precision 1600's ruin my buschur motor. they build a great wastegate and turbos but i've heard rumors that they put injectors in a trash bin and pull them out as needed. tony builds all his injectors in shop and they are all matched before they go out

buy the FIC 1100's prob the best all around injector out there, i ran them and loved them, worked great on pump and E85.
Check out Mrfred review of them a few years ago he talked me into them and i belive he still runs them

can make 400 on e85 with supporting mods and good tune, that is if e85 is readily available.
supposedly my cay is over 400 or just about 400 because i was told that the dyno used reads low but i just go off the numbers that i got lol

still stock turbo and stock head no cams. numbers are in my sig!
