This is my personal car, and will be serving as Evolutionm.net's Project Evo X. Before I go forward, I wanted to give short summary of what I have upgraded so far:
Ultimate Racing 2pc upper intercooler pipe
Ultimate Racing O2 downpipe
Ultimate Racing test pipe
T1R 76S cat-back exhaust
K&N drop in filter
GST boost pill
Dyno tweaked base map from Razorlab/Bryan from GST
Here is a picture of the Ultimate Racing O2 downpipe and test pipe from the day they shipped. Sorry about the wrap, it is almost a two year old picture. I have been very happy with these parts! The fitment is spectacular, and the price value for quality was very good.
I currently have a T1R 76S exhuast, but started out with the Ultimate Racing single exhaust. I was much happier with the weight and fitment of the Ultimate cat-back, but I had to replace it. The reason is that I have two children and a wife to think of, and need the most absolute quiet exhaust I could find and still keep performance of an aftermarket unit. The T1R accomplished that, and was totally wife approved.
Here is the dyno tune. I don't still have a graph of the stock pulls, as this shop has since closed due to the economy. The car baselined at 222whp; Dyno Dynamics are a bit stingy. The red runs are all mods listed above, the blue run was everything above with the stock cat-back instead of the T1R.
Here is a pic of the car:
I have Recaro Young Sport seats for my kids. They are quite secure and go great with the Evo's interior!
Coming next installment: CBRD FMIC and upper intercooler pipe.
