I have a 03 Evo with 9.8 hotside and Im wondering what the difference or what should I expect from a Evo 9 turbo. I am thinking about chaging and going to the Evo 9 turbo is this worth the money to get the turbo.

 

how much are you spending? hopefully not much more than a 10.5hotisde

 

400 and it has less then 15k on it

 

anyone else input?

 

Go for it! I would say, definitely do it. This is good bang for the buck as it should give you about 30 WHP once tuned. You'll need to purchase a couple of parts from the dealer to make the install easy though. Expect to pay another $40-$70 on the needed parts..

 

Well I think Bus. Racing sells a kit that installs things from Evo 9 to your Evo 8

 

All you need is the turbo outlet pipe and the oil feed line. If you buy a used turbo, make sure they include it in the sale and your set.

 

Thinking of doing the same thing

 

Well it sounds like everyone is approving the switch but could anyone that has done this tell me their experience along the lines of performance gains.

 

anyone?

 

I think warrtalon got an Evo9 turbo for his 05 EVO and gained 25-35 HP after a tune I believe.

 

if that is so Warrtalon please chime in

 

The time has come for me to make this move to the 9 turbo could I get anyone elses input before I do so?

 

Many members that have made the change, likes it.

Bigger compressor side shell, and also bigger hotside housing. More cooler, less restrictive airflow=better.

 

LOL I think warrtalon is going to choke some one if they ask him about the two turbos agian. Check his posts i think he made a whole post dedicated to the two turbos.
