Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Well typical bad ideas running through my head with no evo to drive and only forums to keep my car urges satisfied until spring. Starting to look at upgrades/changes to make for spring.

I am in heavy debate about switching to a full t3 setup and running the GTX3576 turbo. However, that will cost me 1500-2k depending on how much I sell my current setup for and realistically won't make much more power if any. So then I started looking at the 6262 or 6266 turbos...then I need to redo fuel system again.

Part of me wants to just do intake mani, ported throttle body and then figure out a surge tank setup and work on removing weight (new seats, new driveshaft, new small breaks etc etc).

So I am still not sure what to do. I will for sure be changing injectors. To either the new ID1300's that I think are supposed to be coming out or maybe the FIC 1600 area ones that are coming out to give me some headroom.

I saw this today, so this is the real reason I am posting...thoughts?

That vs. the MAP rev 3 intake mani porting. What are peoples experience with the golden eagle stuff, worth it? Pricing wise its close to the MAP rev 3 but I know for sure what I am getting with the MAP ported OEM piece. The rev 3 seems safe but this piece seems a lil risky like I might spend money on something that doesn't do shit for my setup. But on the other hand a proper aftermarket manifold should yield great results if designed right.

Hmmmm....
