30R's are not much cheaper than 35R's FWIW.

How does the turbo sit in relation to the stock turbo? By that I mean how much in the way of custom work will need to be done to go from the turbo outlet to the dp?

I'm not a huge fan of the rear facing exhaust, its so much easier to get at the turbo when its in front like with the 4g63's, seems like it would get more "air" cooling for the hotside too.

Hey, you can use my X as a guinea pig lol, I live like 15 minutes from your IL center. Crazy numbers for stock internals.

Who is driving the AMS EVO X around town Eric? Your AMS X passed right by me at strats on North Ave. My white X was there but it was probably blocked away from view by a wall of bodies standing around.

That was me driving, Liz in the pass seat, and Eric G. and Ivo in the back. We just took a cruise thru on the way back to the shop from the track.

Sweet I cant wait to get back into an EVO .. I guess it will all work out waiting and letting more parts be developed before I buy again. Good luck with all of the testing on the kit..

Still with a simple tubular header and not our much nicer cast version the car is making CRAZY HP with just simple bolt on AMS Parts.

Did I mention an EVO X with close 500whp on a 30R is RIDICULOUSLY FUN TO DRIVE!!!!

4 more months till my X arrives. This turbo will be better for the street versus the 35R. If this does not work on the MR, I will get the GSR just to experience this type of power. Keep up the good work. Hope you guys are working on the 2.3 stroker too. LOL
