Installing Buschur Stage II on the Robi Spec Evo X !

What a great day yesterday. A visit from old friend Robi Spec who just picked up a brand new Evo X on loan from Mitsubishi motors for Robi's race program, parts prototyping and the SEMA show.

We now stock Buschur Evo X parts on hand.

So Robi came by and installed the

BR Intake
BR Upper FMIC Pipe
BR FMIC
BR Cat Back Exhuast

BR Buschur Flash ecutek tune

Robi installed the parts at ICS in about and hour and a half. Everything fit like a glove on the well worn mitsu test mule. The Buschur parts fit well, look great and are easy to install.

Together with 93 octane on the ecu controlled boost the Buschur Flash prodcued 338 TQ and 320 WHP uncorrected.

A really nice improvement overall in the shape of the power band, area to the left and a really smooth and pleasant entry level package indeed.

Here is a video of the install and dyno I took

Hey Al,

With the FMIC upgrade, I think it almost qualifies as stage III, just lacking the intake pipe and lower IC pipe

Looking good,

Keith

Kind of like a custom stage

We installed all the parts we had in stock for the X

Luckily we have arranged with Buschur Racing to stock all the Buschur evo X parts inventory on site going forward

This way anyone in the tri state region who wants a Buschur Evo X part can just come by anytime - pick up - install here or what ever we have it on hand all the time

This is such an awesome set up. Glad to see more and more shops stocking Buschur parts. It makes a ton of sense. ICS seems to be making one right move after another.

The Robi Spec Evo X suspension is really amazing, I had a chance to drive a Evo X with the full treatment a couple of months ago in Ohio and it was the best handling car I have ever driven

I have another video which I will put up when I have a chance which I took a couple of weeks ago while Robi was installing a K W suspenison in a new Evo MR at ICS

Buschur has listed the components of the Buschur Stages here :

https://secure.buschurracing.com/cat...9d0d7e88699e38

Stage 1 includes:
* Buschur Racing Evo X 3" True Dual Catback Exhaust
* Buschur Racing Evo X Air Filter Kit
* Custom Dynoflash ECU Tune

In stage 2 you will recieve our Buschur Racing 2 1/2" Upper IC Pipe, 2 1/2" Lower IC Pipe and the Buschur Racing 3" Mass Air Pipe.

Stage 3.... is the Buschur Racing FMIC upgrade.


Note - there are several other parts like a MBC, TEST PIPE and the Air Filter Shield which are commonly in place on most of the X's I have been seeing

Thanks for the great video Al. Robert was here the next morning in time for lunch, we went to Sterk's and discussed the finer things in life

You should have your re-stocking order of our parts early next week.

See you Monday for a week of EVOX tuning!
