Cams, fuel pump, and a tune will put you alittle over 300 to the wheels.

Werd. Tune is most important at this point

i was gunna say if you live closer to me i'll take a look at it, cuz i want one,lol but they're not bad i guess ams is already working on one and already have parts out for it, so you can already mess with the car and stuff. in the end it's personal preference of what you want

The EVO X has mad potential. They have already made over 300 at the wheels with an exhaust, hard intercooler pipe, and a boost controller. (Buschur Racing)

Thats not that good man, The IX has already been doing that. Better than that actually. The X is not the race car the IX and VIII are. The X lost focus on racecar and went closer to luxo car with it.

so getting the evo x is a bad idea if you prefer going for speed.

lhausi2 02-25-2008 03:11 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
Yeah stick to the VIII, its better for speed, cuz the X is aimed more towards all the public and not the sporty look like the VIII and IX

Do you have 45k+ foran EVO X? Didn't think so. Keep you dream close to reality.

I think it's too early to tell if the Evo X is going to perform better than the Evo IX. The downfall of the Evo X, if anything, isgoing to bean aluminum block which has been known in the past tonot hold up well against high boost. As for looks it'sa person's preferenceso it could go either way.

lhausi2 02-26-2008 08:34 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
yeah but we were comparing it with the older styles as in bolt ons, because with bolt ons the IX is doing better than the X so far

Sebba 02-26-2008 09:01 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
Mike, are you telling me you can get 300awhp out of a IX from an exhaust, hard intercooler pipe, and boost controler?

lhausi2 02-26-2008 09:17 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
well you'd have to tune it cuz you'll hit boost cut every other sec if you don't, and besides XS engineering added a hard pipe kit and got +7.8hp and 25.8tq, so yeah i think it prolly could, we'll see what mr evo himself says aka mike,lol

Yea IXs do better than that. A flash and turbo back gets you 300

Sebba 02-26-2008 10:14 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
A FLASH. There we go. Thats not comparing apples to apples bro.

I think you could do the same thing, if not better on the X

EMonz57 02-26-2008 10:28 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
there not adding hard pipes of any kind with the IX either though. The IX is a much better go fast car. A X prob has a different turbo not sure. I havent been over EvoM in weeks so im not down on the lingo these days

Rob 02-27-2008 05:06 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
This just in, a 3 inch downpipe on teh evo X made no power at all.

Sebba 02-27-2008 07:37 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
That is an incorrect statemenet.

With hardpiping, a boost controller, and a catback, the downpipe made no difference.

RE: What do i do now
 
Sebba just go buy a X and tell us what you get out of it lol. your perfect fit. No car as of now and seem to be taking a likeing on them

Sebba 02-27-2008 08:52 PM

RE: What do i do now
 
I do like them, but I agree with what is being said also. Such as, it not being as much of a car as the IX or the VIII, I totally agree with it. I HATE HATE HATE how they have made the f-ing auto option.
