2010 MR w/ ETS bolt-ons
2010 MR w/ ETS bolt-ons
First step in the modding of my MR. Big thanks to Chris at ETS, quality of their parts is top notch, an Bill at Pruven who clears the Dyno for me anytime I need any of my Evos tuned.
Figured Id start off fairly simple as this is my DD,
Mods i went with are
ETS intake,
upper IC pipes,
test pipe and V2 exhaust.
When we started the tuning we quickly realized my 3port had a bad valve and was unable to hold any controllable boost levels, we ended up swapping in a MBC I had lieing around just to confirm the issue, first pull it spiked 26psi and held 21 to redline. I was hesitent to run an MBC as most people seem to swear by the 3ports on EvoX's but I wasnt gonna argue with what worked.
Weather wasnt really cooperating as the humidity was dancing between 60-70% all day, but we were able to end around 330HP 330TQ @26psi spike, holding 20 or so to redline.
Car is so much more responsive its rediculious, boost hits instantly and pulls hard to redline. Figured Id see what you guys think, Ive been told theres more left in it but theres also unfortunatly a lot of hating between the tuning shops around me, so finding a non biased answer is impossible.
All in all car runs solid and feels great....now to see how long I last without swapping out the turbo

Held off on the downpipe because I havent decided what route I wanna go with the turbo yet -_-
And its not the V2 extreme edition Get Rad, the sounds actually really good, fairly quiet for lower rpm cruising but it gets pissed sounding quick on a throttle blip

if i were you id hold off on the Turbo and start looking into tran cooler and clutches your right at the torque thresh hold of clutch slip. If im correct its right around 400 lb TQ at the Motor not WTQ. Some have said they can get 450 WTQ before any problems but they are few and far between. Good luck.
wow im gonna have to go back to my shop! i have all the same stuff from ETS but i got the down pipe too and i got tuned at 25psi and I'm only at 307whp and 286tq...i was looking for around pretty much what you have too because i have a 2012 MR and just wanted to go for a moderate setup to start off...

Yeah I didn't go with the V2 extreme either. It's funny how they don't really have a name for it. I just call it the non V2 extreme lol
