Lets hope so. I'm guessing as AMS and other companies start making parts and everyone realizes how well the car responds to mods, a lot more people are gonna change their minds and jump on the Evo X bandwagon.

A few body mods from Japan wouldn't hurt its appeal either...

I think the X is gonna be a fantastic car! especially now that shops are running tests to see how well it can respond to some minor tweaking. Now we just need a new rear bumper + whole redesigned cosmetic back end. that thing is nasty

But still, you have to "mod it" to make more power than a stock IX, and, it's STILL heavier.
At least it has potential. It will need it to back up that ugly mug.

In a nutshell that is all you need. There isn't even a dimmer wire to adjust brightness...just power and ground. There are two additional wires for O2 feedback (0-5v and 0-1V) But you should not need those if you are on the stock ECU.

The hardest part is actually welding the bung in the system for the sensor.

Why does the evo 8 pump seem to flow more in these tests ?
