there was a guy on here before that had his car done by tuner transformation. Shiv from Vishnu was a guest installer person and put a new fuel cell, diffuser, and stage 1+ (i believe it was) on the car.

Well if you go to the site and look at what will be airing, it seems like they have alot of re-runs that will be going on, so this will definately be the Blue By You Evolution that Shiv did.

He didn't sell it. He had it up for sale for some reason, and pulled it down because he found he could keep it.

yeah, it's a rerun from last fall...

as I recall, you can download the whole show from SoCalEvo. If its not there anymore, I have the show on my computer if anyone wants it.

It was all about the piggyback ECU tuning, i don't think they did much more power mods, they did put the aux. race fuel tank the the trunk...sick.

No the guy did not sell his car after the show. I was actually tuning it last night with a Dyno Flash here in Chicago. The stop tech brakes were lovely! It was cool to drive and work on a famous evo. It was also cool to hear the dude's story about how the whole tuner transformation show works and his experience. Its a small evo world!

I heard that the race tank wasn't even installed right, and he was pissed about the whole experience. I love how Canadians' say the word "about"
