Default Updated pics

we have begun development of our new Suction Pipe Kit, Cold Air Intake(Take note of the Heat shield), and Top Intercooler Pipe Kit from Agency Power. We are showcasing our prototyping process of these parts. We plan on doing dyno tests on each part within the next 48 hours!! We expect some good gains because of the restriction in both parts I will be posting the dyno sheets as soon as there done. ( We will richin it up most likly for all you tuning guys out there too that actually take time to look at AFR's )

( Prototype pics finished product will look 100X better )

Default Updated Dyno sheet

We finished the prototype components for the EVO X intake system. This includes the suction pipe to the turbo and short ram intake kit with heat shield that connects to the factory air scoop.
The car did really well actually with the complete intake kit and suction pipe. The car by nature from the factory ran quite rich. With the addition of the intake components, it leaned the car out to a safe tunable AFR which gave it a ton of power. The boost was consistant but heavily drops off. We definitely need to get a boost controller and/or have some ECU tuning done. We suspect that with the intake and a good turbo back exhaust (coming soon) the car will pick up about 40HP easily.


( as you can see a pretty large gain in HP and TQ just from the short ram and intercooler pipes (From 258hp,234tq TO 272hp,263tq ) )

Default NEW RIMS ON EVO X

EVO X Gets Advan Wheels and Toyo Tires!
Believe us when we say this will not be the last set of wheels on our EVO X! But for now, we pulled from our huge Volk and Advan inventory these 18x9 Advan RS in Gunmetal. With a 29mm offset, the multispoke wheels give the EVO X red a good contrast. Thanks to Toyo Tires, we have the all new Toyo R1R tires in a 255/35/18. These are a pretty aggressive street tire and we look forward to running them down! We also took some Red Lug Nuts from the shelf for that full look.


More Updates to come guys!!
