Matt's DG Tuned Evo 9 313whp/315wtq w/ Video!
Just finished up tuning Matt's awesome evo 9. Matt had us install a buschur ported exh. manifold, megan o2 housing, 255 fuel pump, and a forge mbc. Car made great power on our dyno considering the boost level and mods on the car. Today we are seeing 75 degrees and 40% humidity. What a relief since It's been real hot and humid lately here on Long Island, NY.
Onto the mods:
- Greddy Ti Tbe
- Ets FMIC
- Ets upper/lower IC Piping
- Ets Intake
- Forge Mbc
- Buschur ported/coated Exh. Manifold
- Megan o2 Housing
Tuned by Pete @ DG
Dyno Sheets:
Nice Linear and Smooth power band. This car is still making over 300whp on our dyno @ 23.5 psi after 7,000rpm.
Note: 320whp on our dyno has went 11.7-8 with a 1.7 60ft in a full weight evo 9.
Enjoy your car Matt, see you soon for some future upgrades!
Here is a little video my brother put together while working with us today!

Well, I had a bunch of mods on it before I brought it down, but it was running stock boost levels (or close to, it had a tendancy to spike I suppose due to the mods, but would spike only to 20-21psi)
DG installed the fuel pump, header + o2 housing and the boost controller.
What's very interesting to me is that the car actually drives BETTER now then it did. I always get anxious about how things will effect drive ability, but I can just tell the entire power band is smoothed out and it feels like stock mod wise. The car pulls alot harder now, hard enough that it makes me nervous in first gear. I've driven faster cars, but I had 10x more money into them. Overall i'm very happy with how the car is performing right now, just got some seat time in it tonight and spun it around a bit. Getting a feel for it
Pete was excellent, took the time to answer all my PM's and questions, kept me updated on what was going on, got the car back to me within 24 hours - found a bunch of rigged stuff and things that needed to be fixed while performing otherwise routine work. You can tell these guys give a **** about the cars that come in, which is important with a car like this. The price was excellent, no complaints at all. Definitely would recommend anyone looking to get work done to drop by and check out the place and to talk to Pete.
Thanks again

OEM Mitsu plugs 6k ish miles iirc.
Also, I might be going out on a ledge here, but did you guys put in the little plastic clip that held the oem air scoop onto the top of the bumper? I snapped one of them when I was moving it around installing my intake pipe and only had one in, now there are two - i can't imagine how else a second one would have ended up there, unless my car has some voodoo. If you did, that's attention to detail =O
A week in car is super smooth no problems, of course i'm starting to get used to the power again and I keep thinking "BBK full, BBK full" but there are some other things I need to attend to first haha.
Also, I ended up taking the top heat shield off too. Car looks too sexy without it there. I figure if people can run the huge tubular manifolds without an issue, my coated stocker should be fine. Everything is nice and open there now.

Glad the car is running well. The Ported/Coated stock exh. manifold does look much better without the stock heat shield on. We will always put everything back on the car unless asked not to from the beginning.
Stay in touch and enjoy it! (There is still power to be made with that stock turbo too!)
