Evo VIII Power Packages??

I'm new to the Evo world, Just need some opinion on which kit is better, and why, some parts are different from one to the other tuners packages

I'm keeping stock turbo for now

1. Vishnu v390 ($2525) 390 hp at the crank I guess!

2. Buschur Pure Power ($2400) 330+ whp
https://secure.buschurracing.com/cat...roducts_id=720

3. AMS Stage 3 ($3100) 370-390 hp crank I guess!
http://www.amsperformance.com/cart/A...8-Stage-3.html

Also What Else would I need at this power levels? clutch I guess, anything else? some suspension work?

Any other power kit available that is recommended?

Thanks

what are your power goals and how many miles on the evo?

the things you upgrade / buy are:

FUEL PUMP
INJECTORS
BOOST CONTROLLER
CAMS
TURBO BACK EXHAUST
BLOW OFF VALVE
INTAKE
FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER & IC PIPING

TUNING:

TACTRIX CABLE TO DATALOG
EVOSCAN
WIDEBAND (FOR TUNING A/F)


again it depends on the power level you want and what fuel you decide to use in your evo.


300whp budget evo on 93-94octane would require: walbro 255, crushed 9 bov, intake, exhaust, boost controller, ecu equiptment = done.

I wouldn't go with vishnu, he seemed to jump ship from the VIII's/IX's awhile ago. I love my Buschur exhaust, looks and sounds great and is pretty light weight to boot

Power goals, I don't have since I don't know much about the car, and what it can do / handle

Just want to get more out of the stock turbo without going broke, want to keep it simple, bolt on's

I was trying to stay away from cams (don't want to open the motor yet) but it seems it is a must for evos, so no problem, but no built block, stroker, pistons, etc

The car is a evo VIII 2005, very very low miles, since it was almost abandoned, and wasn't being used

You think it is better to get piece by piece and make my own "kit"?

91 octane is all we get

there are Evos in Venezuela, just not a lot

ETS, Buschur, or AMS parts will not let you down ever.

If the car is a stock VIII a TBE, MBC, Walbro, drop in filter, and a tune will turn the car into a whole new animal man. You'll wonder why the heck it didnt come like that from the factory

On the cheap honestly:

3in EBAY TBE: 200 if that
Hallman MBC: 100 if that
Walbro FP: 80
Drop In Filter: 50
Tune: 200-400 if you dont get the cable and programs to log and upload maps yourself
WB O2: 200

So around 1000 and you'll be
