I heard stock ignition will start being affected at 500 hpish. i dont think on 26 lbs of boost. i was running 28-29psi and it was fine. I will be running and recommend the buschur c.o.p. ignition little costly but well worth it. running tons of boost and meth.. no misfires will be sweet at 30+ lbs of boost

Reading this post is killing me. I am looking at three 35r powered evo's right now. I wanted to buy a new IX then mod, but I cant afford down time or the 10-15 grand to mod over night. I have found some that were built right and sorted very well ( that sorted part is very important ). I really need to unlad my STI first because I just bought my wife a boob job with turbo siezed implants so I cant afford two cars at the same time. I just hope the 35r will last and be liveable every day compaired to my STI. I have the subaru set up perfectly for the street and dont want to regret unloading it for an unliveable evo. One of these evo's is running a 2.4l and a t-4/35r and sounds awsome. I feel more comfortable going this direction now.

We have emissions testing here in nashville, and I have no problems. Thank God I'm not on AEM EMS. I use MAFT Pro for the speed density conversion and fuel, and ECU flash for everything else. It's working really good for me. It's a 10 min. cat conv swap and 10 min. test and happy boosting for me.

you just got your wife a Turbo sized boob job and you're bored of them already? Jee tell me how big are her *****? The size of a FP Green? GT30R? 50 Trim?
Ohh I see, you're waiting to step up to GT35R sized ***** right?

I have a daily driven 03 Evo with all the BPU on her. In the spring I am planning on doing Alcohol injection, 1000cc injectors and a complete GT35r kit. My goal is to hit 510WHP on a conservative to mild tune and run 10's in the quarter. But I have to ask you guys whom already have a GT35r on your car a question:
Overall are you happy with your turbo? I mean if you had to do it all over again would you make the same choice of turbo or choose a different turbo?

We offer a few slightly smaller turbo options that will still get you to the 510whp and 10s on pump+ meth, but will offer a better powerband for street use and overall driveability. If you're interested, I welcome the opportunity to discuss your goals and priorities to help point you in the right direction
