Just as the title asks.... What would you do with 6 grand and a new Evolution IX MR? Just curious to hear what all you seasoned eight owners would do if you were in that position.

mbc and intake before TBE?? stock intake is good up to 400whp. TBE & flash will get you 300-315 whp depending on the tuner and dyno.

It all depends. I pay $68/month in NY (!). $6K would take care of ~7 years.

Put some coilovers on with some new shoes, hold out $1000 dollars in a savings account for when you need a new clutch, and call Buschur or Vivid for a mod starting with their upgrade kits .
