Keep up with who? You mean to keep up with an EVO or your SRT-4....or do you mean to keep up with a turbo SVT?


I was typing without thinking really. I think a turbo 2.5L or a turbo 3.0L would keep up with a stock Evo, but I still think it would lose. If you're talking about a car like yours with full internals (I'm guessing, right?) and pretty much every other part made for the CSVT, that may be different. To really beat on a stock Evo or beat a lightly modded SRT I do think you'll need something on top of a standard turbo kit. I have no idea where the S/C CSVT fits into the picture.
