I'm new to all of this, I'm learning little by little. This would be my first car that i work on. So any advise you have would be a big help, thanks.

 

Well man you have a lot of reading and learning to do. Look at the stickies on here, plenty of information.

 

well first thing i did whe i got my evo i did all the maint. water pump, timing belt w/kit, thermostat, spark plugs, wires, and flushed every fluid and i mean every fluid from power steering to diff. So I suggest do all the maint. first before you mod it, so you know the is gonna run on its full potential and you know everything was done instead of someone telling you it was done, but like the guy above me said check the stickies they will help

 

Sounds like the best thing to do before I do any mods, thanks. Where exactly are the stickies? sorry I'm a complete noob to the forum and Evo scene.

 

What does MBC stand for? another noob ?

 

Manual boost controller

 

I have an EVO IX, never drove an evo 8 but mine has the works. Cams, bigger fmic, tbe, injectors, stock IX turbo. It makes 420whp on e85 and 390whp on 93. I dont see ever needing more than this for a street car. Spools way faster than my suby did too and is a hoot to drive.

 

coo, thanks man

 

here you go OP
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...uantities.html

also search around what fluids you want to use or the car there many option oem, redline, amsoil...i use amsoil on both my cars

 

EvoIX MR has better tolerances in terms of the engine being built so 10% less oil consumption. WAY better OEM cams, so way more power over an VIII with stock cams. Obviously the Evo IX Turbo makes more power, and of course the MIVEC.

Other than that same car basically.

 

Do you think Royal Purple is a good choice for the evo?

 

Omg worst thread ever. You had an 8 and now have a 9 and are asking all these questions. Did u not think to ask this stuff when you had your 8? Terrible thread

 

Nope I was too busy beating on my EVO Rookie mistake.
