I feel stupid selling you a kit that runs like a top and makes 80% more power than stock. How many miles do you have on the kit now? Like 1000000?

From his dynos it would appear he only got a 56% power increase, but since this is definitely the first time you've exaggerated your products I'll be nice and round it up to 80% too.

If I had money like that to fix my car, I would do something to upgrade internal cuz I haven't found anything on how much our block can handle being an open deck...I hear and know of a few Evos warping their block with too many mods and not upgrading.

Not too much to worry about on the block. It will take boost but it cannot be anything too wild. We have not seen one blow yet.

Yeah, I was quite hesitant about modding with bolt ons and a turbo if the open deck is less resilient than the semi-closed from the X.
Still thinking about getting the AWD swap in motion and upgrade to a Rally style suspension, but scared that the motor wouldn't take kindly to a lot of extra power.

WE have 80 kits out there on the 4B family with ZERO failures. If you do not get greedy about power this thing holds up fine, and it has proved it. Greed is bad. That said , we are still making and extra 80-100 h.p.+ that stock. it is an amazing ride and way faster than an RA. It is about the same as a lightly modded EVO from a roll. Proved it over and over. the 2.4liter application of our turbo system is faster still. We have guys boosting 12-14 psi even on our system alone. Not what we think is a good idea but that is what is going on out there in Florida and NY. Whoa. 12s in the 1/4 mile too. The kit is detuned from there but you can see how much more the engine will handle than what we set the system up at when it leaves RRM.
