Thread: What is the difference b/t Agency Power IC, and other much more expensive ones?

I agree they they are in their own class when it comes to building motors, Joe. However Todd K was the first to implement the fuel system everyone uses now (dual pumps, etc....EVO was using one big aeromotive back then), the MAF solution/blow through intake, oversize IC's, boost controller, etc. I will say that EVO's fabrication work and finished product tends to be better. You are correct that their tuning philosophies are indeed...

They are built in AZ by Agency Power. If they are similar, then people should be them (AP's) because they are in stock. Quote: Originally Posted by Prche951 Todd, they are exactly the same as B6's.

larger core/flow than stock, so for the money and a 600flywheel hp application , the AP Ic's look like a good buy. Yes the end tanks do look different, but is the $1000's going to be noticable power increase from an AP vs Evoms...

Henrock: You don't give us any info about what sort of car you have, what mods you might be running, what the current HP is etc. For most applications (that most of the folks on these forums ....including me) you'll find the majority running with some basic mods....a flash, upgraded DVs, maybe a wastegate upgrade....and depending upon whether the car is an X50 or not, a HP rating at the crank in the 460-575 area. For the lower HP...
