Would I be able to use the front mount intercooler that comes with the jdm GVR-4 front clip? does it flow better than my eclipses side mount?:dsm:
 
yeah he might have made 420+... but thats completely maxed out. the evo III does not flow enough cfm in order to make more power than that. including the fact that after 25 psi that turbo is basically a hair dryer.... in order to make that type of power you also have to be ON TOP of your game with tuning and the car has to have very very well complementing mods.

#1 high compression pistons are needed (9.0:1 and up, you get them from magnus)
#2 you will be dumping A lot of fuel were talking like 850cc and up injectors. with all the other fixin's of a good fuel setup with a walbro and a apfr.
#3 cams: go with fp2's and or 1's or 1X's or the hks's that match mirror those profiles. anything else will be to big of a profile.
#4 you will need to run race gas (110 oct and up) or run meth injection. that power was obtained by a guy i knew with a 93 oct and meth injection tune on dsmlink.

and for the record i highly second/ reccomend the ets kit. i have one on my galant and i love it.


Yea I planned on getting meth injection for my car along with HKS cam gears and cams. I'm also going to be running a stroker kit which i am in the middle of setting up now because I would like the extra torque so hopefully that helps out alot. I was going to get some stroker pistons (which i think u need unless u can get regular pistons just over bored ones) and some eagle rods and and swap out my ecu for an eprom ecu and buy a dsmlink and have a shop tune it for me. I buying a walbro fuel pump with some 850cc's injectors now, so you think this set-up will work?:dsm:

it all depends on the compression ratio of the pistons you use. to compensate for the fact that running really high boost will be useless you use higher compression piston.

Alright so I guess i'll need those 9.0:1 pistons from magnus.:dsm:
 
Ross Racing has some stroker pistons with 9.0 to 1 CR for $430.00 on extremepsi.com. I'm doing a stroker setup as well but using some custom JE pistons with a lower CR for a bigger turbo
