    Cool New Evo X BR350 owner here :)

    I just bought this car from this video. I love it! I am not sure what the MR tranny can take but i am sure going to give it some testing! Way back in '98 i had an 11 second 1st gen eclipse GSX back when that was considered "fast" haha not anymore i guess! I am exited to see what this MR can handle! A quick call to Buschur Racing confirmed that the next step is the wastegate actuator. The car has already the HUGE Buschur FMIC, upper and lower IC pipes, ECU flash, "quiet" 3" exhaust. It actually is not loud but has a very deep mean rumble to it.

    Nice to have this forum! We had no such thing back in the day when i started with the DSMs Thanks Dave!

    Congrats on the purchase of the car! It sure was a nice one. I'd skip the downpipe mod you have on order. We've tested downpipes on the stock turbo and found absolutely zero power gains. The stock downpipe is an excellent piece. My car is making over 400 whp on our dyno with the stock downpipe on it. I do need to re-test at this power level to see if it will gain any power but at 300'ish it makes no difference at all. The external dump on that housing is going to hurt more than it helps too. Same thing it does on the EVO8-9's.

    Enjoy the car!!

    Thanks david! I know the car is kind of limited with the SSt anyways. The downpipe is for sound more than anything. Its a purely daily driver street car and I am not expecting any gains from it. After that and the Forge wastegate actuator are installed, i'll bring it in for a tune. Talked to Jarod yesterday about it. It's nice to have you guys so close by!
