I just bought an EVO VIII... what's should I buy first? this in my 1st turbo car. my man said i should get the following items 1st. TT, intake, and BOV...
any suggestion


I have my 97' SE-R (NON TURBO) Tweeked Out to the max.

 

Turbo Timer - waste of money. Just let the car cool down 30 seconds to 2 minutes when you are done driving it.

BOV - Waste of money performance wise. Unless you really want that cool sound, don't get this either.

Intake - can be good or bad depending on what path you choose to take.

Exhaust would be the cheapest - just a catback runs like $500 shipped and anyone can install with a jack themselves.

Bang for the buck - some sort of reflash. Several forums discussing who likes which company's the best out here.

 

Thanks, Dawg!

for ya advise... so go with the cat-back huh? cool!

 

How about a boost gauge to monitor your ****.

 

oh how bout dis

blue fog light bulbs
blue underglow
body kit
chrome wheels
stickers everywhere
oh and an air freshner

 

I just purchased an 03 lancer es and I am curious where to start as far as tweekin it out a little. Can you help me?

 

a boost gauge is cool. i will order one ASAP, gonzo..

But Jig, all those lights, stickers, etc. will draw to much attention to the car, Homes. i have all that on my NISSAN... and i got me in some trouble in Hawaii... I'm trying to have a sleeper.. feel me...

any other suggestion.. to buy...

THANKS YAH!

HEY GONZO... ONE MORE THANG, DAWG.... WHY DO I HAVE MONITOR THE BOOST IF A KNOW IT PUSHES 16.25 TO 19 PSI'S?

Check that site as well as Works and one or two others. They will have packages that start from the baseline car and build one upon the other. When I get mine I will probably do the Buschur packages and a reflash. LOTS of bang for the buck.

 

You know it pushes out that amount how? Telekinesis? Are you truly one with your car? When you start modding and add something like, oh I dunno, a manual boost controller then the gauge will come in very handy too.

 

Dude,
one of my friends, who's well known in hawaii, told me the amount of boost the car delivers within the RPM range. this here is my 1st turbo.
as far as my dawg, he has a AWD Talon pusing over 386 hp at the wheels. His been tuning alot of imports for years...
Peace
