Awesome! I just thought of it when you mentioned briefly something about checking your compression and changing out piston rings or something, so with more people getting up over 100k miles, I figured it would be nice to hear from the high mileage pro,

Congratulations -- I've followed this thread for its whole life. I agree that it would be great to see a comprehensive history of mods, maintenance, etc., whenever you can get around to it (i.e. not driving your 200k evo).
congrads again

^ I feel you... I've had my Evo IX SE since it was brand new in February 2007, and after visiting my family (and watching the Pacquiao-Clottey match while I was there), my car is at ~29,500 miles... just shy of 30k. I'm counting the days before passing that and paying for that first big service
