Hi, just recently purchased a EVO 10 2007. It's totally stock. I know that it's 0-100km is around the 4.7 second mark (SST DUAL CLUTCH MODEL) . I'm wanting to get it down to 4.0 second. Wondering what the best and cheapest way to do that and is it a good idea. This is my only car which I will be driving everyday. Don't want to spend 100's and 100's on fuel too so yeah. Thoughts on how much horsepower needs to be increased to get it to be a 4 second car.

 

I'm not sure about what it will take to accomplish exactly what you want but I would say you can look at doing catback exhaust, test pipe, intake, electronic boost controller and tune for a start.

 

If it is a 4 second car you would average around 13mpg or less I'm guessing. May want to keep it stock if 'better' fuel efficiency is your objective. (These cars aren't fuel efficient to begin with)

 

If you care about fuel efficiency you bought the wrong car..

 

Haha obviously not but the car was purchased for me to drive everyday so I just don't want to do anything where it'll just destroy gas. But really don't mind. Would you know by tuning and putting a new exhaust how much faster the car would go ?

 

Well i have exhaust,HFC, Intake, Cobb tuner on stage 2 and i get about 25 highway and like beetween the mix of highway and city its usually an average of 20 ish.

 

From what I have been told by Richard at Evolution Dynamics and a friend that tuned his X is that the factory tune runs rich and when they tune they are able to lean it out. So with a tune you might actually gain slight mpg's
