So Pretty much as per the title,
Hypothetically, let's say you have an PB Evo X MR and approximately $10,xxx to spend on it what would you do and/or why???
For this example lets presume that the car in question has a catback, front lip and other minor touches.

Note: I do not have 10g's but I do have a second evo I could sell :P
just curious what you would do/obtaining future plans &or direction
At the moment this is purely hypothetical

Cams, FP Red Turbo or the new GTpumps Turbo, full race manifold, E85 fuel conversion (pump and all that), Intake, IC and piping, and then of course tuning.

As above, but also a set of Dodson 600hp clutches, a 3" long dump pipe and maybe a bigger or secondary SST cooler just in case.

Should also do the rods and pistons for some added strength.

Forget the intake and put that money into something else actually worthwhile. The stock intake will support either of those turbos easily and then some.

Turbo back - Tomei downpipe and a test pipe $600
Cobb inlet pipe- $100
3 port -$110
Hi flow Cosworth filter- $50
ID 1000 injectors $600
DW300 pump with a fitting kit $300
ETS 4" intercooler $1100 shipped
Upper intercooler pipe $200
turbo upgrade from GTpump $1200+$800 for installation =$2000
Ohins Dfv coilovers 3500

Rest of the money can go for fitting and installation and tuning. Most of the above can be done by yourself in your own garage. However, the only issue here is that you have an MR. So you'd have spend most of the money on SST clutch packs, installation and tuning. Might definitely have to ditch the coilovers.

Cheers

ohhhh 10k, budgets on cars do not last for long hahaha


If i was stuck to 10k on the stock evo 10 (new timing chain design) looking to utilize reliable power without getting into the heart/block

I would do

Ralliart intake filter
Tomei complete exhaust system
Cobb Hard Pipes
Gfb Bov
Fp Oil Feed Line and remove restrictor
Walbora 255 fuel pump
Grimspeed 3 port solenoid

Tune by beeble and call it a day

Anything more than that u might aswell save up another 10K and just build a monster motor that will sure as hell be built and reliable for it, helloooo 400kw external gate screaming past u, bye bye lambo who is dying on your smoke hahahah



The below i wrote up for a laugh, so please dont critize me ccj members, its just a joke ok, the meaning for a joke can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joke

Ok so u have read the meaning of the word joke, here we go:



If u want suspension, drop in a roll cage and do it at your local exhaust shop

If u want drive train rebuild your box and put light weight shafts

If u want interior go to queen street

If u want exterior go to 2 sus

If u want JDM AS FUK BROOO (it wont cost much), Just brake your front and rear bars, drill holes in re-attacch your bumpers back on with cable ties (make sure there really fukd up), scrape your side skirts a bit, dent your fenders and put a big band aid sticker on it, cut your springs, get some 2nd hand rims that have a chrome dish (even if they are 4 differnt colours and styles it doesnt matter) get the cheapest chinese tyres that are extremely undersized for the wheels and car (so u can get that STRETCH BRO), bash your control arms with a hammer so u can get the camber u want, cut your exhaust off (just have straight pipes), get the cheapest cheapest and brighest brighest head light bulbs u can find on ebay, get the cheapest boost gauge u can find and hide the gauge so u cant see it when your driving, spray paint your tail lights black, cover your car in stickers and call it a day hahahahahahahahaha

Total cost $500-$750

^ this is what jdm is in this country as i see it (think outside the box for once so u can understand me) no u cant think ok read below

you can find all the jdm info you need here: http://jdmcars.org/what-is-jdm , Just read the second paragraph and u will understand

T4 turbo, COOOOOOL air intake, Direct port nitrous injection and a stand alone fuel management system, not a bad way to spend 10 thousand dollars

It's my understanding Dodson clutches run with there own fluid and it works differently to the Diaqueen in that they like to run at hotter temp so the extra cooler is prob not required. Someone correct me if I'm wrong or I can check with Sal / Twatty who has run the Dodson clutches before. Your not going to have much money left after purchasing the clutches and the only people I'd trust to do this job would be RTR.


I would be going for some coilovers for improved handling and weight loss. If it's not an every day car go for E85 but make sure your injectors and fuel pump and filters are upgraded.

A tune from Beeble is a must have!

E85 is out of the question unfortunately, for at least the next year or so, none in/around town
Not sure how power hungry I want to go, when is enough enough?? want to keep the reliability as it will be back to the daily,
Been talking to accuair, that might be a plausible direction to go but will chew up some $$$,
Can either go two ways start to build race/awesome street car or show/capable street car
Either way a beeble tune is a must, was planning on getting one but bought the other evo so that was put on the back burner.
Soo many choices
Thanks for the input so far, keep it coming
