Mellon Tuning Stock turbo EVO 8 basic mods 302awhp 295tq 24psi
Kevin and I went to MOD this weekend in Normal, IL which was a great way to meet some customers and see some cool cars. While we were there I did a lil tuning on Jon aka yellowevo84's sweet EVO 8, hell of a nice guy and we had a great time hanging out. We ran into a snag when the AMS MBC (60.00 model) wouldn't raise boost. After double checking the hoses and orienting it vertically it started working properly. We began at wastegate boost and eased on up to 24psi to find the sweet spot for Jon's particular EVO where it came alive.
Owner: Jon
Username: yellowevo84
Location: Normal, IL
Model: 2003 EVO 8 5-speed
Mods:
Stock 8 9.8 turbine turbo
24psi
93 octane
turbo back exhaust
filter
mbc
DLL 302awhp 295tq which is definitely strong. Stock would be about 240awhp to give you an idea of what I usually see. We're all really excited about the new found power, the car just feels right  Jon thanks again for purchasing the tune and showing us around town. Ming's coconut shrimp ftw!

Mellon is such a stand up guy who is very detailed oriented when working. Just when you think yeah this is a good tune he will be like "lets go out again just to make sure". Sure enough, he gets you more. I did not expect to those numbers at all. I am extremely happy and will be a customer for life.

Mellon is awesome for road tuning and I would recommend him all day long. You actually go out with him and drive the car yourself. He will explain what he is doing as he goes and will get you the most power safely. Go to mellon he will not let you down.
