Question about Evo 8 hotsides...
Ok, quick question if anyone can help me out...picked up an Evo 8 turbo, 9.8 hotside...how much of a difference is it to the 10.5 hotside? Trying to get some research done & see if maybe I should switch the hotside out if it makes a huge difference. I've tried looking around, but haven't gotten a solid answer.
Thanks
Thanks

its worth about 10hp when maxing turbo out
300hp there woul be no difference and 9.8 will spool faster

yea What he said,
if you dont have power to spool the 10.5 then u should stick with the 9.8. Now are u sure its the right evo 8 hotside thats 9.8? Or do u have the 8.5 hotside? What yr did u get the turbo off of? But it wont make a HUGE dif

I should have been clearer, I meant the coldside of the turbo....I should have checked here sooner.
