so if i install every part under the sun but don't get a tune, I'm still stock?

Sorry to bust your chops but stock means you haven't touched a thing on your car, at least in this case performance-wise.

 

Awesome! I will be writing more as I'm gathering more material.

Right now I've been talking to local Subaru tuners and I'm interested in doing stock to stock comparison between the Evo and the STI. I know the results are going to be vastly different and mostly objective, but it's just something fun to do!

On the free dyno days, most StocK MR has been out-putting around 230 hp. Depending on dyno's the dynojets will read a little higher (we all knew that right?)

BTW, I'm looking for truly Factory Stock Evo's for comparison right now.

I may be looking for BPU Evo's in my next chapter of blogs.

Thiago you're retarded..you've got some mods..lol

 

Ok, just updated the blog!


Project Evo Tuning (Let's add a sprinkle of Subaru)

Looks like I will be meeting with a Subaru tuner tonight.

For those of you that PM'ed me, I can arrange sometime later tonight or tomorrow during the day if fine too.

It depends on what time in the afternoon. I might have to head out to manhattan during the day. I have the dyno sheets lying around, you can take a look at 'em. Yeah they are corrected values so that's why I don't understand the 244hp either. We did 3 pulls and I believe the 2nd one is the run that resulted in the the 244. The other two were 230ish. I will PM you either late tonight or early tomorrow morning with my cell phone # if I can make it. If I can't, I'd be more than willing to do it another time (just try to give me a little bit more advance notice next time lol).

heh, no problem. PM me your dyno's and I can compare it to the ones I have already.

Sorry no bung for the wideband and I haven't wired up anything else because I refuse to cut into the stock wiring harness. I went as far as getting a turbo timer harness just to power the zeitronix so I didn't have to cut any wires

 

Looks like tomorrow probably won't work for me. Sorry man, if possible next time gimme a heads up two or three days in advance if you're coming by on a weekend. If you're around during a weeknight, I will most likely be free most days after work. My dyno files are actually hosted on Bristol Dyno's website here. It shows 4 runs, one of them was erroneous. I think it was the first due to bad lead contacts. To see them you need the viewer. I haven't played with the digital version so I'm not 100% positive how to see all the info. My paper results you can check out when you come by. Good luck with the blog man, I look forward to reading more.

Yep no problem. Next time I'm visiting friends in NYC I'll shoot you a pm.

its has to be hard to not mod the evo

 

I have a bone stock IX mr with 16,000 miles. I'm from Danbury, contact me if interested anytime.

 

Thanks bro, I PM'ed you.

`Gus

p.s. still looking for STOCK VIII MR for comparison.

 

Hey I have a 100% Stock 2005 Evo VIII interested?
