I talked to Joe Sim at Turbo Laboratories and he told me to do a 10.5 hotside and o2 housing or get a IX turbo, intercooler piping, and 272 cams. What do u guys think? Thanks.
I've not been entirely impressed with 272 cams. I'd say go GSC.

Thanks guys

I do need to get a AF gauge so that's on my list. Yeah, i will get it retuned by the guys next door for sure. So I should go with the GSC S1's then? How about the 9 turbo vs the hotside upgrade(is there a big difference). And whats the best thing to do for the o2 housing? Thanks again

I don't think the S1s will give you what you already have with the 264s. I'd look into the S2s. The guys from GSC are also pretty responsive. Give them a call.

If it is a Thule in good shape I could probably muster up a few fazolis.

Speaking of which, anyone wanna buy a ski/snowboard rack for the Evo still?

If I ever get another Evo Al would be the last person I would let touch it I was not disappointed in the tune but dealing with him is not worth it.

Fickerflash FTW he pulled a 385whp and cracked my manifold he was pulling so much poooooowa lol no really if the manifold didn't crack he would've got me over 400whp easily. Hes helped me in the past and I got a killer tune from him just 2 weeks ago.

anyway get a fickerflash if you want a good tune!!

I would be curious to see what the differences will look like too. I'm dropping the car off at Turbo Labs Wednesday to have the balance shafts eliminated so I'm thinkin if all goes good I should have my tune in about three weeks.

Unfortunatly I don't think it is a Thule, I think it is a Yakima. I'll have to check later tonight to be sure.

do an evo ix turbo. also get an ebay o2 housing they are like $60 and they work the best ssautochrome. i like my gsc s1 cams, and a lower intercooler pipe helps i dont think the upper does much.

i made 324whp on 100 octane with stock evo viii turbo w/ 10.5 hotside and stock cams. by adding just gsc cams, o2 housing and evo ix turbo i made 372whp on 100 octane.


or you could buy my volks they would look hawt they are the best evo wheels everz
