My mate just bought a evo6 with only an exhaust and fuel pump, got steve knight to play around with it and made 250awkw on pulp. Steve did tune it on 30psi though haha, seems pretty high to me but i know nothing about evos.

Took my car to Steves just after I got it, asked him to check it out on the dyno and make sure its running ok

next day its running 25psi gone from 170kw to 220kw with just a cat back.. :laugh: although it wasn't the safest tune around, 30psi on 98 stock turbo is huge

Evo6 wont sustain 30psi on a stock turbo. The turbo is nowhere near big enough to get it done. Take that as read ;)

30psi can be spiked through it low in the rpm range though, bend all the rods and get them to kick out the side of the block.

30psi is massive boost for any production petrol engine....good luck with it! :)

(Thanks Jet)

I can pretty much guarantee that there is no way in the world that turbo was running anywhere near 30psi. Anything over 25psi on a stock Evo turbo is pointless as you're only creating heat/stress for very little (if none whatsoever) gains.

My stock 2.0l engine/turbo Evo 6 makes a reliable 270awkw on 24.5psi with E-flex tuned by SKR. Thus far, it has been good enough for a string of 1:15's around Mallala and 1:04/1.05's around Wakefield Park. There's no chance the car would be making that much power and producing those lap times on 98. E-85 is my best power mod to date and if you haven't already done it, do it!

Pooraka have ran out twice on me before and once I had to wait half an hour for the tanker to move so that I could fill up. I keep 2 jerrys full at home now just in case

Hi guys, im fitting new injectors and fuel pump soon to change over to E85, am i able to refill the tank with E85 and drive it to the tuner without making any ecu changes? or would it be better to run the new pump and injectors on 98 to get it to the tuner and let them change the fuel?

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
