this is a personal resolution that im going to share with you all.. i am not just a fan boy of the evo, i bought my car because i know it is what i need to make a career out of racing. I learned how to drive in a FF car, then upgraded to a subi RS to learn AWD, then inherited a ****load of money for a 21 year old, and bought my evo cash. Now i have a daughter and wife and have about 10k invested in it, mostly in suspension and brakes, and then needed the power for my sus and brake mods.. now my car over powers my suspension mods, so right now i am deployed and am getting an "oprah rich" tax refund lol(im in the military + had my first kid + gettin that first time homebuyers credit), which i am doing coilovers, cage, and stock appearing turbo(since im running a stock block) to start racing as a profession. So that is my new years resolution, to get sponsored by a tire company first, I currently hold an unedefeated scca solo record which i wish to withhold once i get back to the states, and from there i need to get my name out and get serious in TimeAttack so that i get to my ultimate dream of being a professional Formula1 racer. I hope to shatter the NPR(No Problems Raceway, in Louisiana) record, which is 1:12.. I ran a 1:26 when my evo was stock with Muellerized stage1 suspension(record is held by an amazing driver, driving a GT2)... So yeah, thats my new years resolution, get out of this corrupt military and make money doin what i do best. DRIVING

Great resolution. Good luck. Sounds like you're off to a good start.

My resolution is to lose a little weight. For the evo I mean.

stock housing turbo + full-race mani + exedy twin + built 2.0

And maybe some coilovers and wheels and tires in there somewhere too. 2010 is going to be a big year.
