518 wheel HP on a stock EVO block and heads - (how much power can these EVO's hold!)
Had a great day on the world famous www.pruvenperformance.com dyno today - even though it was 90 degree heat and super high humidity
I was playing with my new toys - the Works reflash and the Works thottle body (throtle body kicks major butt)
I was able to crack a 518 wheel HP pass on my stock EVO VIII block and heads
unleaded gas, 22 psi of boost, 50 shot nos
I was nervous the rods would not take it - but it seems to hold 500 plus hp with ease
The bump in the power curve 1/3 into the pull was when all 4 tires busted loose on the dyno - a first for me
Wish I had it on video !
It seems the pruven upgreded fmic is immune to any aount of heat and I make the same base HP no matter how hot it gets - great piece

Congrats, Al! Keep it going!
We saw approx. 9 hp at the wheels on a bone stock Evo with just the Aperture installed. Like Al said, there really is no down side to it and the gains get even better when you upgrade the intercooler piping (also coming up from WORKS).

It does not seem like that much of a differnce on the top side as the HP is at the 400 range - BUT its between 9 - 10 hp at all points from the time it hits boost to red line
As I said above - i love it cause there is no down side to this mod and its super easy to install
Bravo Works a real well made product
