I've been eyeing this Evo X everytime I've visited EDO's shop...Edwin just finished tuning it last week and I must say I'm very impressed. Pretty much the same setup mine will be - MX1 Cams, FP Red, and Bosch 800cc injectors (I think I'm going to order those soon as well).

Note: The video says 100 octane, but I talked to Edwin today and he said this was with 109 octane. With normal 91 octane he said the numbers were 340 torque and 370 whp

you can tune it so it idles like stock, but i think one of the pluses of having cams is the sweet idle.

The fact that AC, stereo, and door locks weren't working tells you right away that it's electrical problem. It's possible that some connections got messed up while removing and reinstalling the ECU. Physically handling the ECU, and shipping it out takes time and hassle. That's why I strongly favor getting the AccessPORT and flashing the custom maps yourself

CanBus failure. Either that or his ecu was flashed in a car that was not setup the same way his was (as in his has fast key and the other did not).
