I wouldn't worry about a new blow off valve yet. Get a turbo back exhaust, intercooler piping, and an intake, and get a tune..

Congrats on the awesome GF.

my guess is the previous owner had an accident, a new OEM bumper was too expensive, bought that GT Concept one, then got rid of it as soon as he could

I would just double check it over. don't mean to ruin your parade - evo's are pretty sturdy - just being realistic

With just bolt-ons the stock injectors will be fine. Only when switching to E85 or bigger turbo or want that extra cushion you would upgrade the injectors

I am used to a V8 where everything needs to go up depending on the mods. Usually the fuel and Ignition systems are the "make or break" points. I am not going to go crazy with this one. I would like to see mid 12s on a safe setup.

First off, thank you for your service. What branch are you? I am a Marine.

Second, congrats on the Evo. You must have a good, committed girlfriend to be as generous as to buy you an Evo, that is very cool of her.

Third, if your overall goal is mid 12's, you will be fine with stock injectors. You will need your basic first round of bolt-ons (intake, full turboback exhaust, intercooler pipes and larger fmic) and a good tune and you will have your mid 12s or better. I was suprised how easy 12's were in my Evo IX compared to other cars I have had (WRX, SRT-4, built 5.0 Mustang etc...).

Congrats on the Evo first off. Awesome gf you have. Second off - I hope you have a safe tour post leave. I promise you that your Evo will be alot more fun than your M-ATV.
