Evo VIII - Intake/TBE/O2 - what else before flash?
I have a stock 03 Evo which I've decided to start modifying. Megan TBE and O2 housing will be fitted soon. HKS suction intake already on (love the sound). My question is... what other performance parts would you fit before sending the ECU for to get flashed? My budget is kind of limited at the moment. Walbro 255 pump?... MBC?... BOV?... what's the best bang for the buck?
Thanks in advance.

what is your budget?
if you are really tight, just get a test pipe and a tune. If you have more, TBE and a tune. power costs, so you should indicate your budget.
I will tell you one thing - set a goal, get the parts required (most affordable to get you there) and get custom tune if you can, its worth it...
as far as best bang fot the buck, tbe, o2 and tune would be it. walbro costs less than 100$ so it should also be a no brainer for additional safety...

Thanks all who replied,
I think I'll go ahead with the Walbro, BOV and MBC then a tune. Any suggestions on which MBC to choose? Is it worth paying the extra for the Forge RS, or any other recommendations?

U bought the intake just for the sound?
I may be wrong but the way i see it is: Drop-in filter >>> *
and PLEASE, if u gonna get a bov, get the JDM or MR IX bov, NOT the VTA ones like the HKS SSQV (lots of evo owners here get that)
