Moving to Arizona
Thanks Jim in Tucan Ill be sure to take all of those things in to consideration once my car get out there.
E_kobz- My flight leaves this sunday the 12th and my car should be arriving that following friday, so ill deff be attending that Scottdale meet if everything goes as planned. and ill be living in Tempe, so thats like a hop jump and a skip... I just finished up registering to AZAWD, deff seems like a legit forum and last but not least, ive always wanted to do the E*85 mod, that might just have to be my first big purchase when i get out there!!
Thanks you both for the advise and welcoming with open hands, I look forward to meeting some of my EvoM family once i get settles out in good ol' Arizona!

My biggest complaint is the GAS!!! All the other items mentioned car cover (except on windy days), park in shade, etc are all good items and areas to focus on for maintaining your two EVOs.
P.S Once you tune for 91 gas, expect your WHP to drop if you were running 93 Octane. I dropped about 30 ponies from 93 to 91 at same PSI.

I just moved to AZ in December, to Ft. Huachuca to be exact (been here before in the summer). You are going to love it, especially the views. But as far as the EVOs are concerned, get tuned for the fuel you will run, 91 Octane is crappy (probably isn't even a true 91) ES Tuned is good (in Tucson), vividracing is good to for installs, but no AWD Dyno, good layer of wax on the paint, ( frequently) I do mine once a month on EVO and Camaro, inbetween waxes I use the spay on wax as you dry type, for sure the tint, ensure you obtain the interior protectant that is UV rated, and for all purposes STAY ON TOP OF YOUR MAINTENANCE!!

Evo's 8/9 Stock turbo up to FPgreen turbo setup:
- Package 1: FIC 1050cc injectors + install + MAF or SD road tune (single E85 map) = $650 OTD
- Package 2: FIC 1050cc injectors + install + MAF or SD road tune (single E85 + 91 map) = $800 OTD (I recommend this setup)
