A stock Evo 9 will dyno at 230-235whp. My car with an aggressive tune pushed 389whp with just bolt ons and pump gas. Plenty have broken 400whp with less than 2-3k in mods and e85.
Thats my only modding regret. Ridiculous that low mileage WW Evo 9s are selling for 25k.

Reliability goes right out the window with a tune that aggressive though with a stock setup (even with the 4g63). I knew people kept doing that in AK and kept blowing motors. Gotta have those supporting mods!
I imagine the 4g63 can withstand a lot more boost than the 4b11 though. I haven't researched the new block at all since it came out though.
I haven't looked into E85 with the either the STi or the Evo either. I heard that alone can get you 30-40hp but it's all just rumors to me at the moment.
