Sweet guys, any reason why someone mentioned nobody likes the stock turbo and X owners have fat wallets, cause if I recal correctly at one point Evo 8s, and 9s cost the same price and there are plenty of guys running the stock turbo and see good results. The X seems pretty strong with bolt-ons, I wonder if low 12s are possible with bolt-ons or even high 11s, any input on this?

I think you're defintely right, 50whp is a pretty good amount and 170 pounds is like riding with a passenger in my STI, you can barley notice it. Plus I plan on upgrading to a bigger turbo, I want 400-430whp with good drivability

It is a much easier job with air tools and a lift; Cobb Tuning did the install for me while I went to lunch I originally planned to install it myself but since I/we wanted back-to-back testing to happen the same day this made the most sense.

How much was the labor on it, since I have now air tools or lift at my house
