If you must have a new bov find a stock IX dv and use that.

If you just want to hear it get a cone filter instead of the stock air box.

Then get it tuned and enjoy.

PM me if you have anymore questions.
You should listen to this guy! Everything spoke is the truth.

Hello again,
Need some help here..

I have installed the agency power ti exhaust with test pipe and a downpipe.. now i am amazed of the sound and performance, but i have one question.

sometimes when i kick the acceleration with excellent shifting "as i feel" after the right shift i hit the accelleration then the engine and turbo boosts up, then i hear some bursts then it goes back to the regular on going rpm while high accelleration. Its like after shift rpm 5 for example the rpm goes on to 6 then bursts a bit then continue to 7rpm, my max rmp is 7.6 or 7.7 not too sure but sure that above 7.5.

anyway i am not too clear about this case if its damaging the car or it is normal. and sorry for the long story.

Thanks, appreciate any assistance.
Mohammed

Just a little advice. before you start modding this car, get comfortable with it, i mean that in the sense of driving it and being able to control it at all times. Then..... the mods.

Enjoy this car bro, congrats

Congrats on the car, you will love it and like sixfatbabies said get comfortable with it how to shift and drive it. Then mod it. Modded this car can be very fast and if your not careful you can hurt yourself and others. It is very easy to make close to 400 whp on our cars and let mwe tell you it is fn fast.. Good luck with hit and have fun..

Please get tuned.

You are running a full exhuast with no tune and that is way you are experiencing that stutter.

PM me for details.

My EVO RS have 19k miles all stock, now i want to start to upgrade but don`t know where to begin, i want to start with the intake, turbo timer, blow off valve and the muffle. There is a lot of brands and i don`t know which ones worth it.
Can someone give me some advice how to begin.

By the way does someone knows where can i find the OEM rear fiber carbon spoiler?

Thanx
Probably one of the most important things for you to buy first would be the turbo timer to save the life of your car. Unless you personally know the person that you bought the car from then you probably dont know if they did a proper cool down for the turbo. So go get on to extend the life of the turbo.

Then mod out, intake, exhaust, UICP, LICP, DP,MBC, if you plan on staying w the stock turbo get an o2 housing, TP, and maybe some cams and a FMIC then a tune. Lastly have fun with your new rocket ship!!
