Last month!!!

I can't wait!! I actually miscounted how many payments i've made to my car by one!! I borrowed 8k from my brother in law to get my evo, and finally at the end of this month i'll be able to pay him back completely!! PLUS i have 1000 left over to mod it!! WOO HOOO

I'm thinking about modding intake and bo all at once so i won't need to reflash again. My friend was telling me to go to turbo trix with him, the only thing is, i want to do some more research. Any suggestions? Another friend of mine told me dsmtuners.com i'm going ot have a look at it after this post, but i want to know exactly what mods there are (I know there's a lot, but specifically for the intake and exhaust area) for the evo and to know what each part does for the car. Haha i guess once i'm done with my research i'll post up what i plan to mod and let me know what you guys think

Screw the intake! The stock airbox with a drop in will be sufficient. Also, with the amount of money you save on NOT getting the intake, you can buy other mods. Unless you have money where you don't know where to spend, get the intake. What's with all the intakes and bovs for the first mod?? F*cking ricers!

That's the first thing they get not knowing if it helps performance. Since you are so offended, I am assuming you are one of those ricers!!!

haha thanks for the ideas. I was thinking of doing minor mods as well, just to start things off. My friend was telling me to change my shift knob as soon as i can haha I call it the black baseball. Yeah so as far as minor mods, i wanted to replace the stock fog lights, pedals, shift knob, and add a boost guage. A friend of mine mentioned about boost controllers, but i had no idea what he was talking about, I need to do some more research on that...

Then off to the bigger things... I'm just curious, anyone recommend a lighter flywheel? Notice any difference?

Yeah i wanted to get a flash as well, but I don't want to reflash again if i make future mods so i guess i'll hold off for now and save up a bit more money for it.
