Thumbs up We are at it again!

Lancer Evolution MR
+
AMS Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X Twin Tip Turbo Back Exhaust System
+
AEM's Cold Air Intake for the EVO X
+
Ruben's FLASH
=
340WHP(440HP)


We are working on installing the same turbo that blue GSR had at first, to see if we can get up to (or close) 400whp on 93oct with the Mr. SST equiped EVO.

You'll have to update the numbers in your signature too, and yes the car also looks great with about as much power as a stock turbo can allow!

Are you planning on any SST transmission upgrades for the larger turbo setup? If not you may have to limit torque down to avoid slipping the SST Tranny. Either reducing boost or limiting throttle mapping around torque peak should allow you to avoid the large torque hit down low while still delivering solid torque over time and great top end HP numbers.

On my GT30 turbo I tuned out some compressor surge at 100% throttle in 5th and found that these TPS numbers limited boost enough in the 3500 rpm range to keep me safe without having to manually modulate the throttle:

35% = ~17 psi
40% = ~20 psi
45% = ~23 psi
50% = ~26 psi

It's not conventional but until I get my engine to flow more and accept the turbo's airflow this will keep me safe and may also work well for you MR guys if boost limiting alone isn't doing the trick.

Funny, you just proposed the same thing I am planning on doing: http://www.carrito.net/board/showpos...5&postcount=11

Hope it works...
