frank-n-stein is correct. You will need supporting mods to make those numbers. Although there are 2 tuners i know of. 1st guy is chris black from AMS and 2nd is chris from Mellon.

Mellon was at my house and tuned quite a few evo's. My old roommate ED had his tuned by mellon and i know for a fact that he make up to 370 or more on an almost stock evo ix.

i have an VIII with a IX turbo uicp/licp, stage 4 clutch, 880cc injectors, aem ems,
br intake, evo VI motor, wavetrac front diff, hks 274/278 cams, ams turboback exhaust, meagan o2 housing, and I was tuned by chris black from ams and made 350whp @ 21psi. I recently put my evo viii motor back in and will probably up the boost to about 24-28 and make a substantial amount of power.
Looking at a lil over 400whp.

I remember tuning my Evo while I lived in CA with full exhaust/intake/test pipe and barely scratch 301 to the ground..

A fuel pump/o2 housing/LICP/FMIC got me to the numbers I'm at now... Good luck

Hmmm? So the VI can't hold that much boost stock? Chris tuned my car to 25psi with just intake and TBE.

If you don't mind me asking why go from a VIII motor to a VI motor? It will seem to me that the VIII motor will be better than the VI, but again I don't know too much about the VI motor.

I'd recommend Sonic Motorsports. I don't know what they changed their name to, but it recently changed. They were the cheapest on the island. I dropped my car off at noon on a friday and picked it up the next day before noon. They did good work. I'd go to them again if I needed anything done.
