Possible to make 1g feel like an evo?

[sliver]

When my friend drives his evo it seems to 'pull' in every gear. What could I do to make my car an enjoyable ride?

Sell it and buy an EVO. Just kidding just kidding, but seriously your going to need about another 100 HP. I mean think about it, the newer evo's (8-10) have about 10 years more technologly in them...It makes a substantial difference. What are your goals for you car as far as HP, is it a DD, how much are you looking to spend, we kind of need a little more information to help answer your question.

Wonder if my 14b can take the heat.

buy a 2g gs and do an evo VIII swap.

14B to a stock evo i believe it can. but you will have more fun if you got the evo 3 16g or the 20G

Anyone ever done a evo 8 swap?

You better plan on rebuilding the whole car.Go fast parts are not where you start either.You make the car safe first. Figure out what you plans are then go from there.

Are people seriously telling him to do an Evo swap into a GS? You have to be kidding me. Follow the tuning guide. A 16g or even a 14b car with decent mods and a decent tune will be more than a match for a stock Evo.

Max psi on 14b on stock fuel system is about 17psi right?

Nah, I'm not gonna do that. I was just wondering if anyone has had the money and time to actually fabricate it.

16g sounds so good. But I need to upgrade my intake, but why when my MAS is so restrictive. So go to a 2g mas, then I'd have to get upgraded injectors and something to log with. Read my profile and lmk what the next step I should take is.

EVO engine in a 2g ??- again + MIVEC DSM - DSMtalk Forums

I want to make 350 whp. Daily driver with power to have fun when I want it to. Money will not go into this all at once, but more like something new every 2 weeks to a month.

Just follow the tech guide, posted by lifesavedave. It will tell you what you need to know to get there, and the easiest, most effective way to make your goals a reality. If you follow that and purchase quality parts, as well as install them properly, you can make your 1g run with that much newer car (= Goodluck!

EDIT: If its more torque your looking for, try a quicker spooling turbo also.

Thanks man. Motivating post.

Most welcome, happy modding, and keep me posted on your build.

Something else to ponder as well is that since our cars are at least 5 years older then the oldest EVO VIII, add the fact that everyone that owned the car before you more then likely beat the living sh** out of it, and you have suspension parts to consider as well. It's not just the power that makes the car feel a certain way. It's a mixture of things, I can imagine that the EVO VIII chassis is even stiffer then our cars. Going off your profile, you have 90 (like I do) which means the oldest 8 (2003) is all but 15 years newer, a lot has changed in 15 years.....

 

[crimsonGST]

That would also effect your traction some too considering wear and tear on your struts and springs with the rebound rate and sag.

Your friends evo may "pull" in every gear, but his car is probably pretty slow. Just do some upgrades to your car and it will pull even better.

a 16g and other mods ; ]

That is probably the smart way to go, but do your homework first before buying mods. This site is a damn good place to help you out with that. I would start with the usual air intake and exhaust components and mods. Then, go onto proper gauges, and tuning devices all while also doing suspension and brake work (need that stopping power). With all other fields covered, start thinking about turbo, intercooler, and cam upgrades. At least when you reach that last part, your will have the tuning capabilities and suspension to put safely put that power to the ground.
