Anyhow....the Acura warrenty was pretty much the same. It was covered (repeatedly) there as well. Now, mind you, they tried to discredit ANY warranty claim. Hell...if you had aftermarket fog lights and something w/ your exhaust went wrong they'd try and relate it back....lol

Anyways, didn't want to hijack the thread.

doin good, about to defect and join the evo ranks (either an mr or a 9)

anywho, carry on :thumbsup:

anyone, is there any preference to just swapping the gauges up there, rather than using other gauges? I've seen a few pics with a custom panel up on top, looked pretty nice.

about the warrenty..i was told my a few Mitsu reps (friends has a few family members who work at MMofA) that the way and Evolution warrenty works is that have to send it up to HQ to get appovred and why its the cars malufunction etc....and if it doest get appovred ....and the dealer did the work...the dealer eats the cost. sooooo thats why dealerships are carefull on warrenty work they do for the Evolution.

The drop is the same on the MR as other Evos.

It is Borla header, acctually my second one the first one cracked and they replaced it under warranty (Borla).

I did notice a little power gain, and a little quicker spool.

I prefer the cams 264 over the borla header if I had to choose, but both are on the car.

If you can hold off I'd go for the 9. Its supposed to have everything the MR has but some body mods as well. Not sure on pricing though.

yeah, i just wonder about the tuneability of the new mivec head, since a little bump in power doesn't mean anything if you're gonna tune it anyways.

i'm gonna wait til the 9 is introduced, and if it has a decent bump in power, and possibly some of the goodies ( we can all wish for SAYC and a cruise, i'd be happy to wait )
