If it has cams it probably has been tuned and probably has a upgraded fuel pump. Start lookin for stickers on the parts or etching like a name or something, my injectors have a precision sticker on them, my downpipe has Megan etched in it, walbro fuel pump has it engraved.. if you can't figure it out then like the person said take a pic and post it

definatly not litely modified from what i see its converted to SD, aeromotive fuel pressure reg, upgraded fuel rail, cbrd radiator, upgraded motor mounts, and i would guess a double pumper from seeing the relay. I would venture to say it also has an upgraded turbo but would have to see the compressor to say for sure. BTW if the parker hose from the fuel pump says 801-6 on it i would change it its not compatiable with gasoline.

pretty much it looks like your whole fuel system has been upgraded. one reason this would have been done is because your putting in more air because the turbo has been modified or changed. I would guess its a bbk unless it has a tag on it saying its a FP those are the two most common upgraded turbos. the evo's also came with mass air flow from the factory which is located in the intake before the turbo but you dont have one so its a safe bet saying its been converted to speed density. Its just another way for the computer to tell how much air is going into your motor.

i looked up the SD conversion and they all say its done to the stock ecu well my car has a AEM EMS. do you still think it was SD? i do have that parker 801-6 hose and i do run 93 pump fuel but dont understand why that hose would need to be replaced if so what do i put in and how do i do it? im sorry for being a noob but we all have to start some where right!

Wow well I guess I'll start of by saying its not lightly modded at all. Its pretty obvious youre running speed density you don't even have a MAF sensor, and the AEM EMS is defenitley capable of doing speed density. You should probably take it to a shop so they can pull everything apart and see what all you have, maybe the engine is built and you don't know. Anywho, if you don't mind me asking what did you pay? and what kind of power is the car making?
