i just can't see paying 250 for the 10.5, then another 350 for someone to install it......that is 600 bucks. you could buy the whole turbo for another 300.......

Its not like Andrew hasn't done like ten of them already!
Its a cake walk taking the OE 16G apart and putting the new hotside on once you have the turbo out of the car.
yeah, half the cost for WAAAAY less gain.
andrew, i wasn't trying to tell you whats involved in it, LOL, i was just making a general statement. how about this, if i bring you the turbo, how long would it take you to put the hotside on? PM me a price if you don't mind. i would love to do the hotside, and i can get the turbo out myself.

Dude, WHAAAAT are you talking about?
Taylor did a hotside and I have the Tommi Makinen turbo, and we're within 1.5whp of each other on pump gas. The hotside makes all the power of the titanium 10.5 at less than half the cost.

2003 evo
mods.
MR Downpipe/UR test pipe/RnR Catback
Vishnu Adj. cam gears -3/-3
HKS 264I/272E
10.5 Hotside
samco hoses
1 step colder NGK spark plugs
HKS Flat Panel Filter
Pruven Performance Greddy Type-S bypass valve
292.5 on pump gas
Dont get me wrong, I'm happy as heck with the car. Just curious about the power differences... Maybe a different cam gear setting will help ?

Very nice power, and great numbers, esp. on a DD dyno.easyevo,
You list the MR downpipe in your mod list, what size exhaust are you running? My guess would be that if you're not running a full 3" exhaust, you're leaving a few HP on the table and that is what probably accounts for the difference between your setup and RallyRed's. Also (and I am just guessing here), I'm going to speculate that if you'd swap your cams for a 272i/264e combo, you'd also gain some power. Stock is 260i/256e and it would make sense to me to follow that offset as closely as possible (i.e. the 272/264 or an even set).
