Probably a Turbo change Kev as 380-390 seems to be on the limit.

So with that in mind, blower, Clutch, Turbo back Zorst, pump, map i guess 2.5k+

If you want to settle for 380 then you can save on Turbo and just the above mate tbh as 20bhp want really be felt in the real world.

Mine made 379bhp with similar torque but tbh i'm pushing the Mak turbo to its limits mate. Lol..

PS, watch the rods too kev going for that power..

Budget for.....


Rod Job Ł1100
Downpipe Ł150
And possibly turbo. You can pick up an Evo 9 Turbo for about 600 quid.

Then a map. My advice stays with Pete, aim for 380. You'll not see the difference, and if you get bored of that go for the rod job and bigger turbo and get 450.

Tbh Rab i'm glad i bought mine as it was, i know myself then what's been done etc etc, yes it costs that bit more but piece of mind is everything mate, the horror stories you read are shocking and like we've both said, 80series blower, Injectors, clutch, map, you're not far off 420-430 bhp mate for NOT loads of money..

I'm working towards it Pete Most of the parts are in the shed, I just cba to fit them I looked at 5 cars before I bought mine, and they were shocking tbh.

First one I saw was an Icelle blue with '400' bhp. Sadly, it was a total shed. Needed much welding, was running rough as fuck and nowhere near 400bhp. Was lucky if it was 250 tbh....

Second one was worse! Had lexus lights

Luckily I found mine, only 4 owners, full mitsi service history in a funky leather bound book. And bog std barring a mitsi fitted cat back, and a mitsi fitted HKS Racing suction induction kit. Also, it was mint! Sadly, some fucktard scratched the bonnet the other week, meaning it's no longer totally mint. I'm betting it was the Eco warrior woman that lives 4 doors up.

Makes a lot of sense, vast majority of the 6's I looked at before getting my Escos had a proven 380, assumed it was the Evo 'stage 3'

300-420bhp is stage 1.

My 6 runs a reliable 410bhp.
Mods are fully forged blueprinted 4G63T
Kelford cams
Tsl Firestorm full 3" Exhaust
Standard Ported Exhaust Manifold
80 series Turbo of evo 9, im ditching as Ive just bought a Ross Sport Turbo Kit
Walbro 255 fuel pump
HKS induction kit
Koyo Rad
Ecutek Remap, mapped by Paul at Zen performance, will be mapped again at Matt@TRL
Greddy profec b spec controller


Easy to achieve and so reliable, does'nt even consume oil.

Hope this helps, with a good set of suspension, just ditched my Tein Superstreets for KW varient 3, you will have a allrounder of a car.
