I am planning to place an order for my next upgrade for the X. I currently have the following:

2008 Evolution X GSR WITH 4K miles
ETS UICP, LICP and FMIC
ETS Intake
ETS exhaust with test pipe
ECUTek tune with stock boost control

I have decided to go with the BB-X. My tune will be for pump gas. I would like to know if the following mods below are the step in the right direction to support the BB-X. Please provide input based on experiences with any parts/combinations listed. If you feel I am missing something, please advise.

Proposed Mods
CBRD Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X BBX Turbocharger
CBRD Manifold
AMS Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X "Widemouth" Downpipe
Grimmspeed 3 Port Electronic Boost Control Solenoid
Kelford Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X 214-A Cams
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X / Ralliart Updated Fuel Pump Relay
Deatschwerks Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X 800cc Fuel Injectors
AMS Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X / Ralliart 600 HP Fuel Kit

Additional info:
I chose the 214-A for better stock like behavior. I am very picky when it comes to drivability, so that was why I chose the A's over the B's. On my previous Evo 8, the HKS 264 were borderline too aggressive for my taste. Also, this is not going to be a track or strip car. Just red light to red light.

You will need larger injectors and a fuel pump. I would look at the FIC 1100's and a Walbro pump. I just installed the FIC's and they work great!

 

I'd get better cams and valve springs.

 

The AMS kit comes with a Walbro.

I don't think he'd need 1100s with a BBX.

 

Like what? Kelford's are good.


Otherwise, it looks like you are headed in the right direction. You only need 800cc injectors, but could always go for the 1,000's if you really wanted.

Better have a clutch in there somewhere!

 

The Kelford 214-As are pretty mild for the rest of his build. I don't think many people have seen huge gains with them. 214-Bs+springs they sell might be a better choice, or MX1, add springs if you want to up the rev limiter.

Fair enough. I haven't heard of many people complaining of bad idle with either the 214-Bs or the MX1s, looks like it can be tuned pretty smooth.

 

1st post updated with the addition of the CBRD Manifold. I have my appointment scheduled for may. Still looking for feedback my peeps.

 

Looks fine. You might just want to skip the cams if you aren't going to go with at least an MX1. The big cams only add 20ish hp so a mild cam doesn't even seem worth the money to me. If you got a rippin' deal and were doing the labor yourself then it'd be a different story, of course.

 

With the bb-x wouldn't the cams assist with shifting the powerband? LIKE helping the Turbo spool faster? I was hoping to also help the torque out a bit. If the small cams don't appear to do much,what was the market Kelford was after?
