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

[Murlo26]

Ok, so talked with Chris some on gmail chat or whatever. He convinced me of his suggestions and to save some dough.

Now this is my setup for the year I think:

stock x turbo (ported/coated by MAP)
Stock x exhaust manifold (Ported/coated by MAP)
MAP o2 dump downpipe with 3d flange (ported by MAP)
AGP 3.5" FMIC
Depo Racing UICP
Depo Racing 3" LICP
ETS Intake with velocity stack
MAP Rev 3 Intake Manifold - coated as well
MAP 64mm Ported Throttle body
ID1300cc injectors (finally making the jump to ID, was too cheap before but they are the best from all the tuners I have talked to)
AEM320 pump

I think that is the majority of the changes and new stuff. Otherwise, same 2.2L 10:1 compression motor, same head setup with GSC s2 cams etc.

The stock turbo and manifold are already bought and on their way later this week.

I am sure I will need to pick up a slew of stock gaskets, lines, bolts, studs etc but I will tackle that with install.

Hoping for a 420whp/450wtq type of setup. (dynojet numbers, not db numbers). I made 393/396 at MAP on my original stock turbo setup on my stock 2.0L so I think this is doable but only time will tell.

I am excited that I am going to drive the car again, been forever.
