i unnoo. i heard evos are pushing pretty hard. think about it... small compression and lots of power usually means the turbo must be working hard. haha. i don't know $hit about cars... but i think the evo is spank.

BTW: i've heard the stock turbo does about 14 max. honestly... i wouldn't even try that. haha.

Boost in not an indicator of performance. you must do more research son.

But to answer your question, 16psi is roughly the maximum efficient PSI to push out of the stock WRX turbo.

There's somebody on WRXTuners.com whose running 12s on the stock turbo. I don't know his set up, I've just heard talk of him at the site.

Yup a big shot of nitrous will get you there. So will an MRT dog box with drag ratio's.

low 13's are what the majority can do with the stock turbo. Thats pretty darn quick, and can give any EVO a run for the money if not properly modified or driven.
