So I got some money to mod with
I have roughly 1500 dollars to mod with. Now my evo is completely stock other then a boost gauge and a turbo timer. What do you guys think is the biggest bang for my buck? What mods and roughly how much power have people seen with these setups? Whats worked for you? any input would be awesome, thanks a lot

^^^^ definitely look into the stuff mentioned above....also, u could do cams and a flash, but u may have to squeeze out a little more $$$ for everything if u plan on getting everything installed by the pros. Good luck man!

Tbe $650, mbc $80, get an aps valve $220 to hold the boost , k&n drop in filter $60, lower intercooler pipe $200, mail in flash $200 ( all prices are rough). The best mods you can do for now with the money. I personally dont believe the intake does anything but sound. Spend roughtly $1400, maybe alittle more depeneding on what you get exactly, if you get used it will be cheaper.

what tbe can you get for 650 bucks and for that price is it worth a damn.
or maybe i am retarted because think that tbe = turbo back exaust?

If $1500 was burning a whole in my pocket this is probably what I'd do...
WORKS TR303 Power Package
This package costs a little more than $1500 but if you remove the throttle body from the package ($349) you should be right where you want to be after tax and installation. I've heard from a few people that a new throttle body is basically unnecessary unless you're installing new cams anyways so you're still looking at the same power with or without it.

Momma dun gave me 1500 dolers, wut shud I bauy?!
I think you should get a boost guage (more guages, if possible), reflash (I think XEDE v3 and WORKS P2 have this, I don't know about DynoFlash) with boost control or flash and MBC (any brand; a lot go with Hallman), and a TBE (prolly a Buschur) should put you in a good spot.
If you want to do stages, Stage 1 from any company will be around 1500 dollars.

I got the rnr catback w/magnaflow muffler and a dc sports downpipe w/cat delete all for $450. catback was mint, and downpipe is still new. Dont rush, look for a good deal.
