I'm sure the intake/exhaust will net some power. A lot of people report gains without a tune with those. After they tune is when they get the real potential out of them. Get some nice wheels. You don't need much else with what you got. You might want to find out a way to fix or remove the CF where the grill is. It's starting to oxidize.

 

Nice ride, gratz!

 

i dont really like the new EVO but, yours looks great! ps: leave the wheels. they look sick. congrats an good luck with the car man.

 

Looks pretty good. I would get a nice set of aggressive wheels and fix the CF pieces. Oh yea, and take those stickers off.

 

Sweet car. Welcome to the machine!

 

2008 factory tune is like 230ish whp, of course all depends on the dyno, I've heard of heartbreaker dynos being as low as 218, and many showing 24Xish. Really though, the power is all in the tune. I saw someone post with their 2011 made 256whp stock, and with a drop in panel filter and a tune was back up to the crank rating of just a hair under 300whp.

No idea what you were driving before, but compared to past turbo cars I've had, the Evo felt really linear and smooth, so my butt-dyno wasn't impressed, but when I started paying attention to how fast I was entering a freeway I realized it was just because of the mivec working so well off-boost.

The wheels look good IMO. Bronze on white is always win, and the style is not a stereotype fitment. De-sticker is a good plan too, but it is clean Congrats!

 

very nice WW X!

 

Looks great, Congrats! Enjoy!

 

nice pickup! agreed on the stickers and not a big fan of the carbon roof overlay either.

 

Those wheels are sick! I'm loving em

Nice pick up, it seems that you already have an idea of where to take this car.

+1 on the roof vinyl

 

Congrats on the purchase! I just picked up a WW too I think those wheels look great, you should leave them. Not a huge fan of carbon fiber, but the white and black combo still looks great!

 

+10 on stickers and wheels. Not feeling the wheels but I think if you change them it will be real good looking. Love the painted front lip on WW to match the black center.

 

just change the rims and your ready to go. ohh also drop it some more.

 

Nice car man. Enjoy her!

 

cant really see the pix coz of firewall issues in office, but knowing it's an EVO....
