evo gsr upgrades
hey guys as you guys can tell by my name this would be my first turbo/evo car. I used to be into n/a honda but decided its time to do a big boy build. I just picked up a 2010 gsr and I'm already looking into some upgrades. so far my list is going something like this: injen intake/uicp, licp and hard bov pipe, hks bov, and a complete turboback exhust with a cobb ap. then later on hoping to upgrade the turbo and intercooler and tune. I'm just wondering if you guys had some inputs on what I should get or any companies out there that sales some good products. thanks

+1 on the bov, go synapse, cobb, or turbosmart
but honestly you don't need to upgrade the bov yet, I'm pretty sure the 2011 have an upgraded bov from the previous years (like the 9 had a better one than the 8) cause mine is holding 27psi without issue.
If you want the bov noise, then you'll get that with the intake, no need for bov...

Maybe you should consider Extreme Turbo Systems instead. Both Chris and Michael are VERY cool, and very helpful. Their products get great reviews and they support Evom. I spent a decent amount of time on the phone with them going over what my goals for the car were, etc. and they were tremendously helpful. I never once felt like they just wanted to take my money and get me off the phone. Great customer service and products that show true attention to detail. Can't ask for much more than that. And the products are made here in the U.S. Cheers to that!

because I never owned a turbo car before and I was always jealous of the turbo guys that could make that blow off sound. that's probly my only reason for it. but if people say that it will sound like a blow off with just a intake then I guess I can live with out a bov
