hey guys, im new on this site. just lookin to browse around and learn other peoples opinions about things when it comes to evos. I got an evo IX and before i start doing work to it i wanna get opinions from different people. dont want to end up gettin something and it be ****ty. well n e ways i look forward to talkin with all yall so ill cya when i cya.

 

Great choice on the IX - you have what we consider a supercar. The 05 Evo VIII was a GREAT car, but your IX is just on a different level.

When you're ready to mod, let me know. I can help make you fast as hell for very little money spent while retaining perfect drivability and reliability.

 

congrats on the new car. You are going to enjoy it. There is a huge amount of information on this site. Just remember a turboback exhaust and re-flash do amazing things for the 06.

 

yeah i already got a turboback exhaust and a flash comin end of month installed, intake and a bov. just tryin to get some good air flow for now. but mods are already in affect. i just got my hks turbo timer this weekend. figured that was a good start. not quite sure what i could do after all this is put on but im open to suggestions

 

no blow off valve.... please!? the stock valve holds a ton before it leaks and needs to be replaced. If you do, get ne thats good for your car.

 

heres a suggestion... ditch the intake and bov. youre probably slower than stock now. LOL

but seriously what intake did you decide to slap on there?

 

Yeah, get rid of those mods or sell them elsewhere or even try to return them ahha

 

Welcome to evom! Yeah a tune will help alot. My custom dynoflash did.

 

Nice car! Enjoy it, I love mine.

 

all you need to start off is what is in warrtalon sig...

 

Not sure how well the 06 bovs hold boost but the 03-04s couldnt hold much past stock. So if you are running more than stock boost I think you made a good decision, althought I didnt see you mention a MBC. Intake wont make you slower than stock if your tune is programmed for it, which I assume it is. It will add a little, just usually not enough to justify the price for intakes.

 

No, the 06s have the JDM MDR DV - the aluminum version of what we got on 03-05s. It holds to 24-25psi and should not be replaced, especially not as a first mod. That's foolishness.

 

i dont know which one but i was gonna get aem intake. i think ill skip the bov now but with the intake and exhaust and boost controller im definitely gettin my ecu reflashed for the mods. i just got the parts so they are not installed yet (gotta find time.....) im just tryin to get some easy horsepower added. from working on the lightning for the past year i figured out that air is a must when tryin to add hp. with more air then the upgrades start comin in as far as engine work. what have some of you done with the evo from the start???? and what was the results???

 

and what did you get for $1270 that gave you 330hp. and is that to the ground or engine???

 

Is his package (the Warrtalon package) and get it click on the link. 330hp is to the wheels and is an estomation. Its has all the stuff ya need if you still want an intake Buschur will take care of you but it is not need.
