Josh how much can you make that EXACT Same Intake setup? I have the K&N Air filter and couplers for it already I just need to make the piping or have someone make it if I don't sell my Evo or if I run it on my Next Evo PM me if you would like because this is exactly what I want.

Haha, I just got back from logging a couple pulls...

With absolutely NO adjustments to the tune, the FP cover & 4" intake setup gave me 23 hp on the top end...this was on my failsafe tune which is very conservative, I have yet to turn on the meth

That was the good part of my weekend...the ****ty part was I determined the center diff in my 2.5rs is shot so I'll need to start looking for a replacement since I don't have time to rebuild it

So what all do you have done now and what are your end numbers? I am looking at getting one of 2 mostly stock Evos soon after I sell mine and my Goal is in the 350-400 Max rang. I want to keep the motor pretty much all stock and just do some cams, porting the intake and Exhaust manifolds, Custom Piping, Turbo Exhaust, a ported 9 Turbo with the FP cover or a FP HTA Green, Fuel pump and some Good Injectors that can run E85.

I want the stock Ecu with this car and to stay mostly stock on this one. This will be my next fun Daily until I can build a Evo 8 RS into something with a bit more power

End power numbers on this tune don't mean anything...It's my failsafe, but since you asked corrected for weather it made 300 on 91(no meth). Don't let that fool you there's a ton of power left on the table.

Power mods are ported FAP compressor cover, Intake mani, Head, Exhaust mani & turbine housing. 4" intake pipe, Comp 280 cams(installed straight up), UICP, LICP, Front mount, O2 housing, TBE(flowing through a HFC), W/I etc..

400 is possible on the stock turbo at our altitude..

On a side note there is absolutely no reason for 95% of evo owners to move away from the stock ECU.
