That pump is going to go out sooner than later. My AEM 320 failed in less than a month. Also, if you're going to be running 385 in the future, put some ID1700s in there along with a walbro 450 and call it a day. Easy 600whp without any crazy fuel modifications necessary.
Derek Besant Yeah I'm happy with my 320 currently. I had a 255 and that failed within 9 months.. All pumps go out eventually, I said in a previous video that I'm going to get ID 1400 or ID 1700 the updated new versions. I'm spending more on my fuel setup because you never want to cheap out on such an important part of the engine. (Not saying 450 hardwired isn't a cheap way) but I'm going to be tracking the car and don't want any starvation when I'm getting on it. Essentially it's going to be a double pumper setup just alot more reliable and better imo.
So I have always been back and forth on this, but for the warm up I have heard that letting the car idle until 150 degrees, then driving. But I do the start the car, let it idle for 30 seconds to get the oil flowing then keep it below 2k until warm. I have heard just letting it idle to warm up is bad because the fuel enrichment cycle on cold start washes past the rings and washes oil away from the cylinder walls and leads to excess wear because the rings have not expanded due to heat yet, and that driving lightly until warm is better because it warms the oil and engine faster to expand the rings to the proper sealed tolerances. What are some thoughts on this? I hear great pros to both sides.
aSUBIEnamedSTELLA Honestly I feel like the subject of letting car warm up is personal preference. I prefer to let the car warm up a bit for oil to warm up and circulate throughout. I think it also depends on how thick your oil is and climate related. For instance I'm running 20w50 around mid thirty degrees on start up so I prefer letting it get up in operation temp. I also do wait for about 30 secs then drive easy and works the same, the car is just a bit more cranky and moody.
I used to drive through marysville all the time, I know that place! I had the snow camo Evo 8 once upon a time (cow evo lmao). Not sure if you still have this evo but looking at getting a X here soon!
I'm a muscle car guy but god do I love this this car and the way it sounds. I had a roush mustang and this thing would blow its doors off. I want one of these so bad. What's the best year for them?
HalalGaming Since I got all the hot parts off a guy from ebay, I paid 1,200 and about 300 extra for the intake intercooler piping and a valve cover. Haha that's cheap. I bought the efr 8374 brand new so it was 2,200$ the kit brand new is almost 8k all said and done haha. so I'd say I did good
juan cuara the car is still holding up awesome! I sold it and current owner rips it hasn’t had a single issue. The install is pretty straight forward. Just got to take your time and soak everything in pb blaster. I’ve got plenty buddies running stock block with this kit making 600 plus whp that track there car. Trust me get it!
Driven NW thank you for the response and for your videos. Wish you nothing but success with your channel. I’m going to try and tackle it soon. Otherwise I’ll have to pay around $2600 in labor.
Great video and awesome sounding Evo X. I have a question. Is driving with a test pipe as bad as some say, in regards to sound being too loud and the gas smell? Thank you.
I think it makes the car sound a lot better honestly. Yes its loud but more of a deep sound which is awesome for a 4 cylinder. As for gas smell you can hardly smell it, i only noticed it when i stopped and had the car idle for about 5 mins. Defiantly worth the money!
Blaize Oasay-Sabug Awesome cars man! definitely go test drive one for fun sometime! Possible in the future I'll give some subscribers some ride alongs! 😎
Hey buddy, I keep stumbling on your channel so I figured I would subscribe. I just bought an '08 X about a month ago and am working on getting it to where I want. It's already got a bunch of sweet stuff on it but I need new coils, wheels and tires before I do some real spirited driving! Anyways...I'm down in Auburn and just wanted to say hello to a fellow PNW'er! Are you going to StanceWars Golden Gardens this Saturday by any chance? I would love to meet you, I have a lot of questions!
Varg Sutton I don't think I'm going to that meet! I might tho! I'm glad you picked up an evo. thanks for the sub too! it would be awesome to meet some up some time! maybe at another meet!
that was like 100 lol. Rev that thing out a little more. your shifting early it seems. I wanna hear all the Powaaaa! Sweet ride brotha. where at in the NW are you ?
Treeezplz Yeah I was short shifting it a bit! Haha I've got a lot more revs to play with. I'm going to make some videos like this soon so it will be much better. But I'm in Marysville WA north of Seattle by about 40 mins
Bird Redwoods yeah at the time the car wasn’t 100% tuned and ready to crank up the boost super high so I was kinda feeling the car out getting use to the new setup.
Tyler Timko I can't remember the name brand of the pod. but it's an Auto zone brand. I cut a hole in the back so I could pull the wires through. Your best bet would probably be amazon and just look for the mm of your gauge size.
Lag Zilla haven't hit the dyno yet. but I've got a Soild guess that I'm roughly high 5's to low to mid 6's right now. I spin all 4 on some 3rd gear pulls
MrDkallday Absolutely! this kit would be perfect for you the power and driveblilty is amazing. You could even go with a 7670 efr one size down if you were worried about stock block going out, then eventually if you get tired of the 7670 or end up building the block just swap turbo's out with 8374. Honestly the biggest thing is the tune. Have someone with knowledge with the efr turbo kit tune it and your golden!
Soft n easy...🤪😬😬😬 just another day of you driving your evo x....downshift would make you faster but then again your car you do what you want...mine I drive hard and daily it...it’s been a blast I too have some decent HP to my Evo x but not close to you🤪
donnie mckee It depends on how your weather is were you live and how high you are up in the rpms usually. the lowest I'd ever run is 10w30. Just due to the fact when your at higher rpms your oil gets thin with the temp and how fast the motor rotation is and can't keep everything happy and lubricated how it needs to be. I'm currently running 20w50 amsoil. It's generally recommend on built motors to run thicker oil. I'm also reving my motor up to 8.6k when really getting on it. I also live in Washington so I don't have the coldest Winters so it works fine. Hope that helps!
Driven NW it's not to bad here tho I'm in a pretty big city still Wichita the street racing scene is pretty popular here a lot of cars around. And I'm loving it the car runs great I wish the car would have a more constant lope from the cams tho like how it is on a cools start
donnie mckee Are you also running gsc s2's? lots of people enjoy the kelford c's little bit bigger profile on the cam. I wish the Street scene was bigger where I'm at I have to drive like an hour and half to find some races... :/ But when it warms up people get more lively and I'll get more races in.
HalalGaming I have drop in Pistons and rods. What ever brand you want. I have JE pistons and Manley turbo tuff rods, arp hardware all the way through acl bearings. with gsc s2 cams springs and ti retainers.
hybridEP3 definitely a huge difference. the gt30 never met my expectations of what I wanted.. it didn't come on to boost like it should've being a stock frame. I engine is way happier with the t4 setup though, the car can actually breath.
Driven NW I got to agree. I was very disappointed with the stock frame gt30, it feels like it's struggling and very laggy. I look forward to getting an efr now!
Paul Path if you buy the turbo kit new it will have everything to install the kit. There’s a bunch of parts you’ll need before you go big turbo like intercooler injectors pump, etc.
Edwin Labardini It depends on what your end goal is ultimately. If your shooting for high HP you're going to want the GSR, based on the fact the manual transmission can take tons of power. But as a trade off sounds like you might get a leg workout. MR's are awesome and wicked fast around the track with there dual clutch. But they can only roughly take 350 whp and 330 tq reliably. Then you'll possibly have to build the transfer and get some tranny coolers. both are awesome choices tho! I'd say drive both 😎
Not sure on HP numbers but i was on kinda lower boost at 30 psi id say ball park 600whp prob lower. Once i go E-85 i'll crank up the boost and make some real power!
Patrick Diamond You can do it!! I've done done a stock frame turbo install aswell! hardest part is the removing downpipe and manifold because stuck bolts and nuts. Haha! just take your time and get some pb blaster and angled 14 mm wrenches
4:50
Absolutely Love the look and sound of this evo 10, I hope to have something like this one day, Truly awesome car
Chris Fane thanks bro! Really appreciate it!
Glad to see you guys getting some real attention
Jonah Weber Yeah man, pretty exciting!

"Still running punk ass....I mean pump gas" haha my brain is not awake
Devin Tariel lol yeah stupid punk ass.
okay why havent i seent this sooner..... this was juicy af
Evo for the win!
Wicked WhiteX Evo or bust!
Wicked WhiteX nah mopar or no car
303Racing 5280 lmao Mopar... you mean battle ship right?
Driven NW lol
Lmfao! Battleship😂
when you upgrade the turbo yourself, you took it to your tuner driving it or did you have to take it on a trailer or something
German Garcia You’d have to trailer it unless you didn’t upgrade the intake size. If you went 3.5in maf it will be terrible to drive without a tune.
very nice car man. keep posting good videos!
Mohand MOHADI Thanks buddy!
I used to drive through marysville all the time, I know that place! I had the snow camo Evo 8 once upon a time (cow evo lmao). Not sure if you still have this evo but looking at getting a X here soon!
Nah sold the car! Moved onto hondas haha kinda weird switch up. But it’s fun
Want that type r bro
nice work man good details keep up the great work my man
Thanks bro!
Driven NW no prob man
I'm a muscle car guy but god do I love this this car and the way it sounds. I had a roush mustang and this thing would blow its doors off. I want one of these so bad. What's the best year for them?
12-14 are the best years imo updated timing chains and recaro equipped cars
When you say dirt cheap how much was it if you don't mind me asking. For the turbo, down pipe and manifold.
HalalGaming Since I got all the hot parts off a guy from ebay, I paid 1,200 and about 300 extra for the intake intercooler piping and a valve cover. Haha that's cheap. I bought the efr 8374 brand new so it was 2,200$ the kit brand new is almost 8k all said and done haha. so I'd say I did good
I love your evo man I drive a rsx atm next car will be a evo I can't wait haha
Dc5 Mat Evo's are awesome man! You won't be disappointed
I know I can't wait
How’s the car holding up? I plan to get this on a stock block. How difficult was the install? I’d love to see a how to. Love it!
juan cuara the car is still holding up awesome! I sold it and current owner rips it hasn’t had a single issue. The install is pretty straight forward. Just got to take your time and soak everything in pb blaster. I’ve got plenty buddies running stock block with this kit making 600 plus whp that track there car. Trust me get it!
Driven NW thank you for the response and for your videos. Wish you nothing but success with your channel. I’m going to try and tackle it soon. Otherwise I’ll have to pay around $2600 in labor.
juan cuara No problem bro! If you have any questions on the install hit me up on instagram R35_austin or Driven_NW
Driven NW cool man I will. I’m gonna be sticking to my stock block. Hopefully all goes well
Great video and awesome sounding Evo X. I have a question. Is driving with a test pipe as bad as some say, in regards to sound being too loud and the gas smell? Thank you.

hell yea man nice to see another x in Washington, we should definitely go to some meets together!
Lilskidmarks14 I'm down! Do you live up North? :D
I live on widbey island, putting in an act stage 2 clutch and ams master cylinder in and then the car will be ready for the summer!
Lilskidmarks14 Super close! Haha I need a new clutch and flywheel really soon hahah.
yea im waiting to see if i need a flywheel when i take it in to a shop, hopefully not but if i do going with the act stage 2
Lilskidmarks14 Yeah I just thought might as well get the act lightweight flywheel and not have to deal with resurfacing the oem flywheel
nice car man! I live in Washington too! I really want an evolution after college but I really want to test drive one first
Blaize Oasay-Sabug Awesome cars man! definitely go test drive one for fun sometime! Possible in the future I'll give some subscribers some ride alongs! 😎
Driven NW awesome! can't wait for some ride alongs haha
Blaize Oasay-Sabug Yeah we'll definitely have to figure something out! Hopefully I'll see you at some car meets and such.
I wanna upgrade from my g35 coupe to that boost life!! Evo 8 is the goal
Do it! you wont regret it!
Hey buddy, I keep stumbling on your channel so I figured I would subscribe. I just bought an '08 X about a month ago and am working on getting it to where I want.

that was like 100 lol. Rev that thing out a little more. your shifting early it seems. I wanna hear all the Powaaaa! Sweet ride brotha. where at in the NW are you ?
Treeezplz Yeah I was short shifting it a bit! Haha I've got a lot more revs to play with. I'm going to make some videos like this soon so it will be much better. But I'm in Marysville WA north of Seattle by about 40 mins
Nice car man. But it didn't sound like you were pushing it hard enough to get that wow factor buzz . To gentle ?
Bird Redwoods yeah at the time the car wasn’t 100% tuned and ready to crank up the boost super high so I was kinda feeling the car out getting use to the new setup.
Always nice to see a evo here in the NW. Fuck subaru! Haha
Chase Bradley lol 😎. I like Subarus too! Anything on 4 wheels really haha!
From where did you get your turbo?
Please i need it so bad what is the brand and from where to order it ?
what gauge pod stand do u have in the top left by your pillar wanna change mine like yours thanks
Tyler Timko I can't remember the name brand of the pod. but it's an Auto zone brand. I cut a hole in the back so I could pull the wires through. Your best bet would probably be amazon and just look for the mm of your gauge size.
ok thanks nice car
Tyler Timko Thanks man! 😎
nice car..and turbo engine always have lag but is there any way tu reduce it??
Mohd Danial Thanks man! more displacement haha and more timing could help. But you can only do so much. this kit is extremely responsive tho!
Ya..i like it tho..you so lucky bro..one day ill get one..that pulls that sound..its music to my ear..👍👍
Mohd Danial I had a terrible boost leak too! stay tuned for more pulls later!
Yes..can't wait..keep suprising people..haha..#bigboost
great video. How much power to the wheels on pump gas are you making?
Lag Zilla haven't hit the dyno yet. but I've got a Soild guess that I'm roughly high 5's to low to mid 6's right now. I spin all 4 on some 3rd gear pulls
Why has the boot spoiler been removed?
how much did that turbo kit cost? nice vid bro.
Vang Studios roughly 7k! not cheap :/
FINALLY a detailed video on an X with an 8374. Do you think it would be ok on stock block with a conservative tune?
MrDkallday Absolutely! this kit would be perfect for you the power and driveblilty is amazing. You could even go with a 7670 efr one size down if you were worried about stock block going out, then eventually if you get tired of the 7670 or end up building the block just swap turbo's out with 8374.

Shit this thing is long gone. You should see what I beat the hell out of now 😅🤣
Do you still have this car?
I'm right at 500hp on my evo with about the exact same set up but I'm running on 91 pump gas what oil would you recommend to use?
donnie mckee It depends on how your weather is were you live and how high you are up in the rpms usually. the lowest I'd ever run is 10w30. Just due to the fact when your at higher rpms your oil gets thin with the temp and how fast the motor rotation is and can't keep everything happy and lubricated how it needs to be.

I also live in Washington so I don't have the coldest Winters so it works fine. Hope that helps!
Driven NW thank you this helps I live in Kansas so the weather is like a bipolar woman in the winter lol
donnie mckee Ahh Kansas that sucks :/ I'd atleast run a 10w how do you like the kit so far?!
Driven NW it's not to bad here tho I'm in a pretty big city still Wichita the street racing scene is pretty popular here a lot of cars around. And I'm loving it the car runs great I wish the car would have a more constant lope from the cams tho like how it is on a cools start

Very cool setup what bov u running??😎
I don't have a bov! 😎 it's built into the EFR turbo. For much better efficiency.
My bad again but what exactly did you do to the block?
If you can add price would be amazing I have this efr8374 with supporting mods and thinking of building the motor
HalalGaming I have drop in Pistons and rods. What ever brand you want. I have JE pistons and Manley turbo tuff rods, arp hardware all the way through acl bearings. with gsc s2 cams springs and ti retainers.
men you change gears like my grandma
Luis Diaz God damn your grandma must be a pro. So jealous!
Driven NW hahaha Im jocking with you men, I had a evo X with 350whp, Im just miss the open dump sound
Luis Diaz lol it's all good! you've gotta get those numbers up boy!
Hahahaahahahah
You the man driven! 😄 sub'd
hybridEP3 I listen to what the people want! lol. I definitely liked filming this video I'll definitely do some more. 😎
Def need more footage. I currently have a gtx30 too. What you think compared to the efr? Night and day I'd assume
hybridEP3 definitely a huge difference. the gt30 never met my expectations of what I wanted.. it didn't come on to boost like it should've being a stock frame. I engine is way happier with the t4 setup though, the car can actually breath.
Driven NW I got to agree. I was very disappointed with the stock frame gt30, it feels like it's struggling and very laggy. I look forward to getting an efr now!
hybridEP3 Yeah the best thing that turbo offered was the cool sounds it made lol. did you ever have an oiling issue with the turbo?
i got a gsxr 1000 for you to race the next meet in marysville when you get E85
coolkid0000000000001 Sounds good! Seems like a bit more then I can bite off but I'll give it a go!
My man, learn to push that!!!!
AVLISZERO D-Grim I'll get on it soon!
How much torque did you make?
Michael Hasselbring not quite sure but enough to make the tq management to kick on and put the car in limp mode! Haha
Nice man, can you give me list of part that needed to install the turbo thanks
Paul Path if you buy the turbo kit new it will have everything to install the kit. There’s a bunch of parts you’ll need before you go big turbo like intercooler injectors pump, etc.
👍
Where in WA are you from, if you're from SW take me for a rip and I'll race you on my bike :D
SuicideMoto I'm from the Marysville area north of Everett. 😎
How much was the whole set up?
Minh Phung Brand new roughly 6,700 for just the turbo kit.
Driven NW oh how much does the install cost?
Minh Phung Not sure! I installed it myself!
What kind of exhaust !?
Mr' Alexis ETS V2 regular!
When you posting new content ???????
got my car back check it out. 575hp
ThePhantomEvoX hell yeah! I'll take a look.
I'm gonna buy my First Evo should I buy the Gsr or Mr? :/ where I live there's a lot of traffic 😭
Edwin Labardini It depends on what your end goal is ultimately. If your shooting for high HP you're going to want the GSR, based on the fact the manual transmission can take tons of power. But as a trade off sounds like you might get a leg workout. MR's are awesome and wicked fast around the track with there dual clutch. But they can only roughly take 350 whp and 330 tq reliably. Then you'll possibly have to build the transfer and get some tranny coolers. both are awesome choices tho! I'd say drive both 😎
Driven NW Thank You so much :)
Edwin Labardini Anytime!
Is It on a stock T-Case?
Ricardo Martinez Yeah stock T- case!
The cars for sale!!!
how much?
Joel Fernández 26,500!
Driven NW mileage?
What's the hp? Boost?
Not sure on HP numbers but i was on kinda lower boost at 30 psi id say ball park 600whp prob lower. Once i go E-85 i'll crank up the boost and make some real power!
Need a install video
Patrick Diamond if I ever need to take the kit back off I'll make a video!
Thanks bro I am about to install the FP mhi 18 k wish me luck lol
Patrick Diamond You can do it!! I've done done a stock frame turbo install aswell! hardest part is the removing downpipe and manifold because stuck bolts and nuts. Haha! just take your time and get some pb blaster and angled 14 mm wrenches
Where did you get that yeti air freshener from? 😂
Snappie Top secret 😉 smells bomb too!
ets extreme ?
UTxBEAST96 Nah just the regular ETS v2. The middle one of the 3.
Some downshift would be nice lol. Great video tho 👌🏼
NRosanes Thanks man!
how much whp?
AaronSTI Haven't hit the rollers yet but roughly 600whp or high 500whp on pump gas. e85 is on the way tho!
Driven NW wow that's crazy
AaronSTI Yeah not to shabby!
You need to give me a ride 😩
Jacob Ortiz I definitely do! how's yours doing?
Driven NW it's still doing well! I'm finally ordering that android head unit with my next paycheck lol. Wish me luck
Jacob Ortiz nice! Haha should be a nice addition.
do you think you think you can beat a bike?
coolkid0000000000001 When I get on E85 I'd like to try!
Where’s the good bit?! When do you actually fucking rev it?
what is a pull?
Eyeskel Davison When I go wide open throttle.
Yang hayi hati aja kok mana cara nya iya
гул как в турбине это плохо
Игорь Нисмо Yeah dude!

driving an evo like a granny🤮
