Must be nicety finally have some creature comforts in your Evo. I contemplated doing a Nav headunit or Carputer at on point but the motor always seems to take my extra monies. Glad ya finally got to take her out for a spin. Good thing is that now when she's down for mods it will only be for a day of two at a time now that the bulk is done.

Yeah Im excited the big stuff is done. Still lots of little things to do, but I just couldnt wait on any more parts. I'll rock the stock turbo now for a little bit until my complete set up is ready to bolt on...

Very nice Brian...car looks great...awesome you got to finally drive it...

In regards to the brake pads...You got the Magic pads right? I thought they were supposed to work with those rotors without trimming? I had to trim the backing plates on the outside EBC brake pads I got so they would work with the Girodisc hats...If it bothers you though...just pull the outside rear pads back off and trim the backing plate some...no big deal...

I still need to bleed the brakes more, but the car drives great. Monday I'll head out and have two 02 bungs welded in place and get the wideband working. Ive got it on 20psi right now and the car feels great. Always impressed with bolt on evo's. I'll get it cleaned up tomorrow and take some nice pics. It is way too bright out and the car is filthy from sitting for 2 months Still a bunch of little things I want to do too but we are close. My titanium bolt kit came too so I can work on the little things now. At least its running and way better then when I brought it home

I'll post up a mod list tonight when I have more time. Just got back from installing the 02 bungs for stock 02 and wideband. Got to run out and get my son his first haircut I'm not doing such a good job on the hair

And a simple Forge manual boost controller. I had a Buschur one but removed it because I dont like how it doesnt detent and lock in place.
