Correct - the a/f on the street tune is under 11/1 - very safe - - the NOS shot is between 11.4 and 11.8 a/f - which should add at least 10 hp right there - - the additional gains are from the amazing intercooling of the charge that NOS give you - which really makes your hogt turbo air dense

how much is this 3307 kit or wutever? isnt it like +4000 dollars??? damn. y dont you get a custom manifold and a mitsubishi turbo? i know thye dont say hks but you can get a very similar set up for a lot cheaper.

Al,

With an apparent open ended budget, you continue to lead the dyno numbers race. Show us that your mods will lead where it counts...at the track!

if u mean a 20g then that's a no.. it'll be hard to push over 400hp with a 20g without spraying.. besides u already have a big 16g stock... so that's not that big of a jump..

as far as size at minimum get an HKS2835 .. which should take you to 380+whp..

3037 will take you beyond 420whp..

but a custom manifold with a GT30R or 32R is what i want!

i was thinkin more 25g. thats about 1100, a lot cheaper than these +2000 "name brand" turbos.

Well - so far I have not spent that much $$$ on this set up - - I did spend a lot of time with trial and error and internet research plus dyno tuning

It seems that the results greatly please me - so it looks like I will be investing more $$$ into the fray with a hks turbo kit, JUN stroker and some sort of stand alone comming down the pike later

BUT - I think I have done some justice at the track already - AFAIK my 1/4 time is the 2nd quickest evo viii at 12.073 - 7/100ths behind the quickest AMS - - and my 1/4 mile trap speed is the fastest so far at 113.94

I think thats not too bad as I still have the heavy ICE in there - complete interior and zero weight reduction other than the removal of the spare tire

In my STI/WRX - I had to change the motor, transmission, turbo set up - fuel system and do a stanb alone - combined with serious weight reduction measures down to 2900 lbs in order to run a 11.88 @124 mph on C-16 race gas - - - - - - it seems that the EVO will turn in those kind of numbers on the stock turbo, injectors amd fuel system with a full interior

In my last car - I had a FP GT30 balistic concepts garret ball bearing t3/t4 which costs a minimum of $1600. After experiencing the GT series - I wont run anything else. The ball bearing set up is just amazing when it starts to spool it hits like a jet. i am sure there are many cheaper wasy to go - - but the last time I had to have a set up custom fabricated from scratch - it took almost 3 weeks of time - $1,000.00 in stainless pipes - $500.00 in hardwear and gaskets - flanges etc and the other related items such as wastegates, couplings and welder fees. This all is not to mention the trial and error in experimenting with various turbo trims and combinations to find a suitable compromise for your particular application.

Yes the HKS kits are fairly costly - - but it sure is nice to have a bolt in - tested - well made and excelent performing set up out of a box

ADMstunna

i feel you on the "bolt in" aspect. definitely makes it worth the money. u bends are freakin expensive!!!!! i just feel that the hks stuff is really over priced - worth it, but really over priced. my mechanic makes manifolds for 500-700 complete stainless and equal length. since ive become accustom to getting custom work i guess thats the reason i cant see spending the money on the hks stuff. i also dont like that the hks manifold wastegate dumps into the downpipe. i think it should dump atmospherically.

I'd like to be a 1% owner in Burns Stainless - those U bends can break your wallet for sure !

The HKS kit is just plain ****! Hands down the best turbo kit out there. It is well worth the 5 grandish that it costs.

I am still debating wheather to to with the 2835, or the 3037S.

I am also debating wheather to go with an EVO VI, VII, or VIII. I can pick up a VI for under 20K, and pump the other 12 grand into mods.

Claudius. Give me some advice!
