3. Repaint to deal with clear coat failure

4. Continue loving the **** out of the best automotive investment i have ever made.

Change what ever I need to to make the goal listed above come to fruition

Personal
Finish Associates Degree
Get back to around 185lbs
Survive next deployment
Love the personal goals. Take care of yourself. Since I have been in the Army, I obtained AA, BS, and working on MAED. While recruiting I plumped up to 195ish but I dropped that weight on a 2009 Deployment and dropped more weight on my 2011 deployment to 165ish.

Go TDY a few times and you should be able to gather some money for the EVO!!!

Option 1 is more realistic for 2014, Option 2 will probably be for the EVOs 10 year anniversary!!
Need an Evo IX, stock turbo full spool at 3200

I figured my personal goals aren't too much to ask, as I am 4 classes away from my degree and I am enrolled for 2 of those 4.

The weight I have been lingering around 205 or so just gotta get to it and keep to it and I think it will drop like a brick.

And my deployment is spending money for the evo, figure 8 months in HOA should surfice nicely since my wife will be finished in school as well(Medical Assistant) and will start working hopefully she'll buy me goodies for it .

If I was 165 I would look like a stick seriously, 185 is damn near fighting weight for me.

Well my personal goal is to be able to drive mine again. I had to have an emergency surgery Dec. 30th, and not supposed to drive for a few weeks.

As far as the Evo goes;

Clean, polish, wax

Depo Racing gauges (boost, afr, oil pressure)

Change the timing belt

Get it tuned.
