New to the forums

Hey guys I added an ets intercooler and netted 58 whp. I can't believe it made that big a difference. Here's a video and my old dyno numbers vs my new ones


Got the car back yesterday. Love how the turbo xs sounds compared to the greddy.

New parts arrived


Hey guys new to the forums. Been modding cars since I can remember. Just a few pics of my older rides first. My 05 civic ep3 converted to a type r replica. Had a k24 with a turbo kit. Made 350whp. Was a fast thing

After that I wanted to try out an s2000. I did basic Boltons and got tuned and it made 201 whp.

It was a fun thing but I wanted something different. I was initially going for a 2012+ sti. But then I remembered how fond I was if the evo 8 style when I was younger and always wanting to own one. Against almost everyone's opinion who told me to keep the s2k I sold it and searched for 3 months for the right evo since most are beat to hell with mods. Then a gem showed up right here on evom. A 2003 with only 16k miles All stock!!!. Jumped on it right away!
When I first got her which was Tuesday

I then did a full detail on her and am quite happy how it came out

Then my first mods were to add a magnaflow catback exhaust and I removed the grill in the hood

Thanks for looking. I have an appointment next week for new trans and transfer case fluid. Also getting the timing belt down since this car is still on the original belt! I'm also planning on buying an oem spoiler. Next yr I would like to add an ets intake and down pipe and get a tune.

Haven't been on in awhile. I got the timing belt all taken care of as well as new fluids all around. My mechanic did a mix of Joe gibbs gear oil with there mtf oil. And the trans was shifting buttery smooth in 20 degree weather. Also had the ets intake and catted dp installed . Made a small video on the ride home. Sounds awesome
