How much boost should I run
OK so I am not 100% sure how much boost I should run, suggestions. I am currently running at 22PSI on 93 and it holds well all the up to about 7K. Thats about correct right?
BR stage 1
680 inj.
walbro 255
10.5 hotside
perrin FMIC
Injen intercooler pipes
HKS 264/272
AEM cam gears
ARP studs
O2 housing
intake manifold
custom flash
And anyone with similar mods now how much power there 8 is making or there 1/4 times?

You should be making about 330whp with those mods mabey a little less. 1/4 mile depends on how well you can launch it. Get it dyno tuned with A/F monitoring the tuner will set you up with the proper boost level.

That seems like a low estimate, if I bought it in all staged packages I would basically be running a BR stage 4 with just a little extra. And they claim 360HP on 94 with 264/264 on there stage 3 kit.
Well, you just don't understand how power works on the Evo, and you haven't read the hundreds upon hundreds of dyno and drag threads with your basic combo of mods.
The estimate on the BR site for their stages is based off their old 2wd dyno. 360whp is very high on an VIII without alky or race gas. It's occasionally possible, but not likely. 330whp would be a better estimate, but that's why you should be going to the dyno or track instead of asking for random estimates.

Yeah thanks, I know and if I could get to one I would. I had an appointment but I broke my starter like 2 days before and I work alot so havent had chance to set up a new appointment. Thanks for the info though. I always wanted to ask warr. how do you find the time to drive your evo when you are so busy tearing into people cause they dont know everything like you.... haha just messing with you.

it seems good to me. like I said it holds strong to 7K and I have no knock, I do really need to get my A/F ratio straight though I am running real rich with just the flash. And I am only getting like 14 mi/gal with moderate driving.
