I got the silver with sunroof but no cf spoiler, just the small one! I'll take some pics tomorrow after the dealer cleans and waxes her. As long as someone can host it for me.

Actually while I'm at it, I'll have the dealer check out the door alignment on the left side I believe( paint chips from what other people have been posting), the rust problem behind the rear bumper?, alignment, and ask about the clutch line. The line shouldn't void the warranty correct? Is there anything else I'm missing. This is the second turbo mitsu I have owned. The first being an 88 starion. My first car.

Dude. I saw you driving in front of the Virginia Gate of Andrews AFB(Old Alex Ferry Rd) yesterday. I was like hey thats the EVO that was on the rack at the new Mitsu dealer in Waldorf. Sure enough when I was driving down 301 it was gone.

Congrates on your new ride.

I live in Waldorf. Hit me up sometime and we can talk shop.

How close to the top does your clutch lock up? Good choice on the braided line. Lines are consumables and if they meet or exceed Mitsu specs they will not void the warranty. I would have the dealer do the work just to be safe and have the service manager make a note on your service record that the replacement is ok. You will want to make sure the clutch system is properly bled and they will do that for you with a gurantee. Now go out and put that bad girl in a power slide and see what she is really made of.. I LOVE mine.

The wing looks alright. At least you can see out your back window.

The only mod I have is the Vishnu standard series turbo back. I also have a linage grounding kit I havn't installed yet.

Are you stationed at Andrews? I'm in the AF also.

Yep AF here too! Stationed at Andrews but pcsing to nellis in about a month. I like the carbon fiber wing better. Hell the one on there now is smaller than the type r wing I had on my civic! The height of the wing blocked the brights from cars behind me. For some reason people around here like to drive with the high beams on alot!

They finally sold the silver EVO? I bought the yellow one about a month ago. I wanted the wing. BTW mine was delivered with 47 psi in the tires. I went back down to Waldorf after I found out about it and checked the pressure on the silver one to see if they screwed up every EVO or just mine. The silver one was OK. Did they get any certified EVO techs yet?

There is only one Mitsubishi mechanic there and he did my clutch. I had to take it back because I was missing the rear engine mount bolt but besides that he does decent work.
