·I have read alot of threads about upping the quality of the internals above 330bhp,as holed pistons and bust rods can happen.Would be interested in any one running higher with standard internals,no fuel cut.
My car runs at 290bhp at the moment which means that in theory I have scope of another 20-30 bhp before I need to sort the internals.
Running 1.1 bar with gromet removed 16 psi [I prefer psi]
I have a good filter,de cat exhaust although not de cat pipe[sport silencer]mongoose.
vta valve and thats it.
Now this is where I am very sceptical after talking to guys running full blown rally cars
turbo restrictor and a decent management system and blow my exceleration figure out of the window.
But they run STANDARD internals.Torque is boosted and Bhp remains at an acceptable limit of around 280/300.
I had a look at Cadwell at I think was MichealK'S boost controller Silver VI after lunch.
With the timing adjustments ,a better fuel delivery ,surely the cost of getting a little more power/acceleration is far cheaper than spending 5 GRAND on internals .
Fuel cut and detonation seem to be the worst things the EVO can suffer from that will shoot your rods through the sump.
Would having a good management system be a sufficient start to get my car a little quicker?
Or should I just buy a boost controler and have the detonation dialed out and put my gromet back in with a uprated fuel pump?
