Need Advice On The 700hp Kit

I am ready to take the plunge on upgrading to the modified turbos. I have everything else except the modded turbos but I wanted to hear from board members who own the system. (I have EVO intercoolers, clutch, brembo brakes, bilsteins and headers) I recently read someones VTGs turbos were not working properly because of the mod and that is exactly what I do not want. Also I do not want to mod the internals at this point.

I have the Evoms system and love it. In fact I feel that the acceleration is not only Hp intense but it's a more seamless and linear run . The hardest part for me has been adjusting to the performance clutch . I also may opt to upgrade the brakes someday because the car really can move . In my case my car was already modded before the final upgrade but the new Turbo's took the car to a level which I had not imagined .

It's been 1500 miles of reliable fun .

No brainer. Do it.

If your car if already modded, you already know the great feeling of peak boost/TQ. The biggest improvement with the EVOMS700 Kit is that peak TQ/boost does not fall-off as you approach redline. It just keeps pulling harder and harder. Really adds to driving excitement, and makes car feel a lot more like a rev-happy NA engine (which I like).

Be sure to give it a try with 100 Octane. Bet you a dollar the first thing you say at WOT in 3rd is "Holly F*ing Sh*t"

Sharky did my work, and the whole system just works together great.

Chrisn --I still haven't tried race gas . I'm at 93 Octane though.
