I think the EVO even with the stock cams and proper EM on street gas is able to get to that magic 350hp mark on the stock fuel system and turbo. As far as IC I'm not sure it will make much more then 290 to 300 whp on a dyno jet. The stock turbo just blows to much hot air at thoes power levels. HKS's 2.5 is just not ideal.

A 3.0 is a must for big boost power. It will elimitae creep, that is for sure, and I plan to run a 3.0 dump off my turbo so I may need to to control the creep, how much is that 02 housing????

If I can find a good, inexpensive 3" high flow cat out there ... maybe I'll try to compare a 3" dp + 3" o2 housing to my current set-up (2.5" dp + stock o2 housing) ... you win Eric, r u happy? Hmmmm ... I wonder if AMS will offering a high flow cat? Not interested in test pipes (running catless) anymore. I believe Vishnu and/or RMR may have one avail as well.

I'm always happy and more so today then most. I'm might have a brand new EVO in my gorage as early as saturday if this dealer I'm dealing with will give me the trade in I'm looking for. And it is never about winning. I have seen so many set ups on the dyno and 3in always out flows 2.5. On the wrx with a larger turbo VF30 slightly smaller then a 16g with a 2.5 cat less exhaust has boost issues because of the 2.5in back presure.
Just going by what I see.
