Maybe we should start a "dyno" fund to make it happen.

So I should be putting the evo in my name week. My mom still thinks I'm paying too much but as a parent she doesn't count the aftermarket parts towards value. Car has 115k Gsr silver with carbon hood and defi blue racer gauges( boost egt and oil pressure) has a turbo timer , water meth, full tbe, stock injectors but walbro 255, buddy club 272 cams, full fmic, aftermarket bov but it's recirculating....I might be forgetting a couple things

OK. It seems like you have something to work with as a foundation. What is the car being sold for? The things that caught my attention initially is:

(1) You mention getting a tune but if the car is already running meth, it should be tuned.

(2) What turbo is the car currently running?

(3) Why would a clutch such as the Exedy Stage 4 twin disk be necessary as it seems that the car is not making such power to require a clutch at that level?

(4) What FMIC is on the car? A full FMIC means nothing if it is the Ebay version.

(5) What tuning software are you going to use?

He is selling it because he doesn't drive it much and hates buying gas so he is getting a street bike. The Meth is a recent upgrade and hasn't been tuned so it runs rich but I'd get it Retune regardless.

I'm not sure why it has that clutch in it, I think he bought it with plans of upgrading. It has a stock evo8 turbo for now.

I forgot the name of the fmic and piping but it wasn't eBay. How much could that really affect it? I come from building 240's and most people prefer the eBay kits cuz it is just piping.

I don't have any idea what to use for the tuning, reflash the stock Ecu I assume but cousin is a tuner and is obsessed with evo's

I understand about the meth. No issues there. And yes, a tune is vital. How can you tell that you are running rich? Gauges? For the EVO, any EBay inter cooler will heat soak especially here in Arizona. Buschur, AMS, or ETS is your best bet as far as the core is concerned. The piping is as you said, just piping, but a horrible core could really cost you. As for tuning, just get in contact with TSCOMPUSA on here and he will take good care of you.

the core is AGP with nisei piping, you can tell its rich from the smell and it hits boost cut if you go full out. The exhaust is a espelir jgt500 and catless has Apexi Air filter
