Welcome to the forum, get some pics up :twisted:

Very well worth mods along with a remap

There's loads of info in here and plenty of people willing to help.

Bet the supra was fun, always been tempted with those.

Welcome , you need to choose wisely with the induction kit as they seem to destroy the MAF sensor on the X ,I went back to the oem air box with a Cosworth panel filter as they say the oem box is great up to 400 BHP

Thanks guy's well I have fitted a K&N induction kit working well at the moment sounds great when giving the car some beans looking at a decat now any suggestions ?

Hi & welcome , the x is good for 400 BHP with standard air box with a good panel filter ,I use a cosworth one as I had an k&n typhoon induction & it destroyed my MAF sensor as they are a bit delicate on the X , have a look in the forsale section for the X bootmat upgrade

Nice, defo keep an eye out for you, must be a real difference from your supra, especially 134bhp drop?! You planning on doing the x up? I went for a 9 mr fq360 in gunmetal!!

Good choice I like the 9s The supra was a bit of a handful lots of power ran a 12s down Santa pod and hit over 170 when driving it throw France and Spain a few years ago but it was getting it on the tarmac one of the reasons for the EVO 4wd I am very new to the Evo I have changed the air in take and have a cat back going on next week with a small brake upgrade then a remap and see how its feels I'm over in Selsey I do use the EVO as my daily drive I will keep my eyes open for you

Cool, ive heard a remap on the x works wonders, my brother and brother in law live selsey way so bound to c u some time!! I live just outside chichester heading emsworth way so tend to go other way to work (every day drive aswell) but you never know its a small world!! Sounds like you made a good decision regards to supra, part of reason i went with evo is same as i went with scoobies is being able to live with every day but knowing there is a lurking beast under the bonnet waiting to erupt!!!
