Nice car think I have seen you out and about. I saw a evo similar to yours on the 41 heading to Tampa. Have to let me know if you know of any meets in the area I just moved out to Tampa from California and should have my evo out in the next 5 months or so. ( shop back in California is tearing down motor and making sure everything sat well in storage for the past 2 years with small runs around the block every week lol )
Be safe and hope to see you around sir

Its been pretty simple. Let the oil warm up and then beat on it. I look the car over about once a month for leaks,belts noises. Every three-four months I change the oil ( Rotella T6 5-40 for street duty) and put it on the lift and go over everything. Suspension, hoses,boost leak test, fuel pressure and a dyno check up . I've got a flashed ACD so I change the Tcase fluid every 5 K or after 1 track day. The rear diff is every 15K.
Aside from the clutch wearing with the taller final drive and abuse, its had minimal things done since it was put together. I think at this horsepower level and with a stand alone these cars can live a long time on a good tune up. I've kept it around 600whp /485 wtq for most of this engines life and its been happy with it. I think with a larger turbocharger and less back pressure that 700/500wtq would be fine also for the entire drivetrain.

I am starting to lose count how many times I have read through this thread 
Probably the perfect evo!
I saw the post about why you went to the M130, but I guess I am still having difficulty understanding what the benefits would necessarily be.
And is the reason why you only rev to 8200ish rpm is because of the R/S ratio?

8200 rev limit because the turbo is done by then. Torque and power falling off due to back pressure. No reason to rev higher.

The 153 rod/94 crank can rev to 9500 with the appropriate breathing apparatus, like if he were to fully port the head, switch to S3's cams, do an intake manifold, and strap a turbo kit with a 6466 on it..
