Random EVO questions...

Should I attempt to race a WRX with a BOV, cold air intake, 3" downpipe and exhaust?

What brand of cleaner do you guys use on your seats?

Anyone know of any dynos in Central or SouthCentral PA or Northern MD?

Should I be pushing my car hard at only 1400 miles?

Also...Any word on a ECU upgrade??


Just some random questions....thanks..

With that setup on a WRX, you should be right even, maybe a little quicker...

Yes you can push it hard....

No listed ECU's... But they have tuners that use piggybacks, and SAFC's to adjust the fuel curve for more power....

hell yes.

in MD you have Altered Atmosphere that has an AWD dyno. Extreme has a regular dyno, but will convert to FWD, which I highly doubt you'd want to do.


Should I be pushing my car hard at only 1400 miles?
it's been broken in, but personally I wouldn't really start until 4000 or so miles, but that's my opinion, and only that.

haven't heard of anything solid.

Should be dead even if you launched. I raced a wrx with the same mods tuned with an afc 1 and he beats me every time by a 1/2 car length. I was so mad because I traded in a wrx for my evo, but thanks to him I have alot of parts on order right now. LoL, you've probably been thinking ALOT about what to do to your car now. It's ok you don't need that warranty, just do it!
