Damn that took a while! So you're car is good to go now, you can actually drive it!

So have you done any other mods? (or what do you have done to it now I guess I should say)

I'm taking my car to the track on the 16th finally! There should be a guy from my school there w/ a STI that's modded!

How do you like the Nitrous Express N-TERCOOLER ? I noticed that on a turbo charged civic it added 52 hp !! How is it doing on the Evo ?

rt tubo- It sounds like the clutch replacement project is a major challenge. It would be interesting though, to hear the basic steps you went through, special tools, etc, needed to get the job done.

Getting an idea of what the pitfalls are ahead of time can make a project much easier the second time around, or for those that follow. Any feedback for the more technically inclined DIYer's that will consider this job, would be appreciated I am sure.

I can't imagine anything much worse than working on my Syclone!
