Really nice car!! hope to get one soon just taking forever cuz I'm buying it cash I'm also going with the same turbo good power and I hear the response is good to...
Did you remove the center turbo mounting bolt , the hard to get to one in order to install the MAP manifold . I don’t understand how you got the manifold over the three studs?
Hey brotha. I’m planning to run the same turbo and manifold. Could you send me a list of the things you bought? Im a bit newer to this and I would appreciate your specific list.
Hey man, how do you like the single quick connect for the bumper? I like the look of the single more than the double but still want to retain rigidity and alignment.
I like the look better too. But also I still have my bumper cover bolted on in all the other locations. So the quick releases only need to support the corners on my setup; its not a full quick release bumper cover. If I ever go full race car (big if) and I ever get around to doing my own fab work, and making the whole bumper cover easy to remove, I would probably add several more quick attachment points to hold it securely.
Hi . I do have a question in regards of priming a new turbo setup . Since I upgraded to a walbro 450 pump and deaschwork harness with relay setup by battery just like you have , do you disconnect relay under hood for fuel pump and relay that’s by battery in the trunk as well then attempt to start up ? Or remove relay from trunk only ?
If you have the relay setup like mine, I would probably pull the relay in the trunk for the deatschwerks re-wire kit. If you pull that it shouldn't start unless you still have some residual fuel pressure, but even then it will probably shut right off. Another method is to just unplug the four injectors.
Have not dyno'd it yet. Probably won't for a while because I'm constantly tweaking my tune. Have the boost/fuel/spark more or less where I want it currently, but trying to fatten the whole power curve with fine tweaks.
@@mpbiv421 nice, I'm currently dealing with evoscan that doesn't wanna log. It says it connects but the log files are a mess with repeated values etc. Fun stuff lol
HTX Lui, yes I think most people could do it in a weekend. Just make sure you have all the hardware and parts on hand before you start. And also I would soak all the exhaust manifold/turbo/down pipe bolts with penetrating oil the night before you start working on the car.
Yea it took me 4 days because some bolts snapped but if it didn’t snap it would of been easy 1-2 days. Just make sure to loosen your turbo to install the manifold if need be
Blanket is holding up well! Still looks pretty dang new. I really like how it looks compared to the other heat shields on the market. I'll have to see what the inside looks like soon, as I need to go in there and tighten up the manifold/turbo bolts.
mpbiv421 I take it you had all three bolts that hold the turbo to the engine removed? The Downpipe bolt, the hard to reach bolt in the center and the bracket bolt near the 3” air inlet?
Standard mitsubishi part, but I bought it from here: stmtuned.com/collections/mitsubishi-evolution-x-exhaust-gaskets-install/products/oem-mitsubishi-evo-8-9-x-turbo-to-manifold-stud also there are two studs in the head that get removed for the MAP investment cast manifold install, but all the rest stay in place.
No Clue. I omitted an important detail in all these videos, and that is that I self tuned the car on the street using evoscan and ecuflash. I debated showing some of the techniques but I don't really consider myself a tuning expert nor do I want people blaming me if they blow up their stuff. Eventually it will go on the dyno, but only after I have several thousand miles on my tune and am happy with it.
Denny Le it’s a total B..... but two 3/8 drive wobble extensions and a very big breaker bar finally worked for me. I tried a universal joint but almost broke that. A universal impact socket might work also but I didn’t have any. Getting it back in and aligned without cross threading can also be a pain. I suspect a lot of people don’t re-install all the support brackets and bolts when doing this swap.
Awesome video with no dumb blaring music in my ears, informative, and fun to watch! Thank you :]
Same turbo I’m going for my man , Heard thing makes your car fast

Awesome vid my guy what a beast being able to complete a job like that well done! Liked and subscribed 😎🤙🏻💕
Looks good! Suck that you had to modify that bracket for the turbo, hoping it would have been a true bolt on install.
OEM oil feed line was the biggest headache as it doesn’t flex well

@@mpbiv421 thank you
What’s the max hp you can make from that turbo . no info listed on Mapreformance...
Ever Dyno it yet? About to get a tpc gt spec with map manifold. Researching the install. Might as well buy replacement bolts beforehand it looks like

Waiting to install my Tubular Manifold & turbo all at one time . Would you say this is something that could be knocked out in a weekend?

How’s the blanket manifold holding on?

@@mpbiv421 u have it tied down with the steel wired?
Did you have your AMS Downpipe removed when you were installing your MAP exhaust manifold?
I had it resting in place, but did not have it bolted to the turbo until after I was able to get the manifold on and tight.
mpbiv421 I take it you had all three bolts that hold the turbo to the engine removed? The Downpipe bolt, the hard to reach bolt in the center and the bracket bolt near the 3” air inlet?
Where did you get the studs for the turbo manifold housing? Did you have to remove the studs out of the engine block?
Standard mitsubishi part, but I bought it from here: stmtuned.com/collections/mitsubishi-evolution-x-exhaust-gaskets-install/products/oem-mitsubishi-evo-8-9-x-turbo-to-manifold-stud also there are two studs in the head that get removed for the MAP investment cast manifold install, but all the rest stay in place.
mpbiv421 thank you. I also purchased the nut for it as well. Will see how it goes .
mpbiv421 your the only person with a video that shows more detail.
What was your final numbers when you got tuned

@@mpbiv421 not even a virtual dyno graph? Can you say if the power is linear n how much boost your running?
Why did you choose mhi18???
bro how tf did you get the bolt between tcase and oilpan out, that bolt is giving me hell
