Evo X upgrades

If nothing else, at the power level you are at you could toss the 1000's back in for a while and just have shane tune you on them. Then you have a good solid car, and can swap in bigger injectors when you know there is a product that will work for you. Misfires are bad bad bad at this power level.

That's a definite possibility since I know they run perfectly. I have them at home instead of DB but I think I'll just give Shane a crack at getting the ID's to work.

Yeah but I like to plan for the future and not satisfice. The math gets tough not matter how you go about it...selling old injectors, buying new injectors, paying Shane by the hour, etc.

I talked to a guy with the new DW1500's and his symptoms are identical to mine (as far as warm starting, etc). The misfiring needs to be fixed but hard to say what others issues might remain. The DW1300's should be the perfect size if they tune like the 1000's...getting a set is definitely on the option list.

Plugs on the X are stupid. $18/ea for stockers ($22+ for aftermarket). I don't think it's the problem anyway but it was Shane's suggestion to try new plugs.

Yea misfires are the suck...


I ordered plugs from AMS and got them in like 2-3 days. No dealers stock them, they all have to order them and they are very pricey.

Misfires are always bad but the car actually makes less power at 3k rpm now than it did on the stock turbo.

I just got an email from DW saying that they are making 1200's as well. To be released 'this Summer'. Hmpf. Bastards.

Coming Soon!
1000cc, 1200cc, 1300cc, 1500cc

This summer DeatschWerks will be releasing new larger sizes for many of our applications.

Subaru, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Toyota, Mazda, Hyundai, Honda, and more
All 100% drop in fitment and high impedance
All flow matched and coil matched
Great for E85 tunes
