What do i do now

hey guys i have an evo8 and i was just wonderin what would be best to do next to my car. i have about 3gs and want to put more work into my car. i already have basics like intake, exhaust, clutches, etc on the car. i also have a bov on the car already to so yeah i was just wonderin what would be best to do next to the car.

Cams, fuel pump, and a tune will put you a little over 300 to the wheels.

Werd.   Tune is most important at this point

Well if i had got 3g's to spend i'd do cams , fpgreen , fuel pump , 02 housing , turbo header , and tune.

how bout the new evo x. i mean i love the evo 8 that i have now but one of my plans was to trade it for the new evo x. any comments on that.

i was gunna say if you live closer to me i'll take a look at it, cuz i want one,lol but they're not bad i guess ams is already working on one and already have parts out for it, so you can already mess with the car and stuff. in the end it's personal preference of what you want

The EVO X has mad potential. They have already made over 300 at the wheels with an exhaust, hard intercooler pipe, and a boost controller. (Buschur Racing)

Thats not that good man,  The IX has already been doing that.  Better than that actually.  The X is not the race car the IX and VIII are.  The X lost focus on racecar and went closer to luxo car with it.

so getting the evo x is a bad idea if you prefer going for speed.

Yeah stick to the VIII, its better for speed, cuz the X is aimed more towards all the public and not the sporty look like the VIII and IX

Do you have 45k+ for an EVO X? Didn't think so. Keep you dream close to reality.

I think it's too early to tell if the Evo X is going to perform better than the Evo IX.  The downfall of the Evo X, if anything, is going to be an aluminum block which has been known in the past to not hold up well against high boost.  As for looks it's a person's preference so it could go either way.

yeah but we were comparing it with the older styles as in bolt ons, because with bolt ons the IX is doing better than the X so far

Mike, are you telling me you can get 300awhp out of a IX from an exhaust, hard intercooler pipe, and boost controler?

well you'd have to tune it cuz you'll hit boost cut every other sec if you don't, and besides XS engineering added a hard pipe kit and got +7.8hp and 25.8tq, so yeah i think it prolly could, we'll see what mr evo himself says aka mike,lol

Yea IXs do better than that.  A flash and turbo back gets you 300

A FLASH. There we go. Thats not comparing apples to apples bro.
 
I think you could do the same thing, if not better on the X

there not adding hard pipes of any kind with the IX either though.   The IX is a much better go fast car.  A X prob has a different turbo not sure.  I havent been over EvoM in weeks so im not down on the lingo these days

This just in, a 3 inch downpipe on teh evo X made no power at all.

That is an incorrect statemenet.
 
With hardpiping, a boost controller, and a catback, the downpipe made no difference.

Sebba just go buy a X and tell us what you get out of it lol.  your perfect fit.  No car as of now and seem to be taking a likeing on them

I do like them, but I agree with what is being said also. Such as, it not being as much of a car as the IX or the VIII, I totally agree with it. I HATE HATE HATE how they have made the f-ing auto option.
