I've been lurking for a while. I pick up my EVO tomorrow and I'm pumped. I do have some questions as I'm new to the boost scene. The mods on the car are as follows from the advertisement:

"PROFESSIONALLY TUNED BY AMS PERFORMANCE
TURBO SMART DUAL POINT BLOW OFF VALVE
AMS LARGE FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER
AMS CATBACK EXHAUST SYSTEM
1000CC FUEL INJECTORS
AMS SMALL BATTERY KIT
HALLMAN BOOST CONTROLLER
BOOSTING OVER 35+ PSI!!!"

When I test drove the car it was running up to 25psi.

-Since the car is in San Diego I would assume it is an email flash?
-The advertisement says "boosting over 35psi". Does that sound possible/safe? If so, how do I know it has been tuned to run that high?
-What sort of HP/TQ can I expect to the wheels?

Thanks folks. I'm looking forward to learning tons here!

Welcome to evom and to the turbo world =) Do you know if the motor has been built & what kind of turbo is on the car?

 

The motor an turbo are stock. Thanks for the welcome!!

 

It can't be running 35 psi on the stock turbo. lol Maybe it's a typo.

 

or maybe the seller doesn't know WTH he is talking about...... that happens quite a bit.

to the buyer, good luck, modded cars can be a bit of a pain. I would look the car over carefully and make sure whoever did the install didn't do a hack job.

Get a good price, so if something goes you won't be so pissed. Post pics.

Cheers
