who still has their Evo Xs completely in stock form?
They do....I got it. I got all kinds of stuff added with purchase. I got 2 years left on my "if your car is stolen and not recoverable or if your car gets totalled, you get brand new Evo of that year" and I got an upgraded KARR alarm system with electronic shut down. Gotta negotiate with those ruthless dealers. Mine is also aweekend driver so I guess I'm in no rush to super mod it yet.

well, i started this thread with the idea of keep my newly bought EVO stock for along time. but it hasn't been a week yet and i'm already planning on getting a suspension mod, can't stand the wheel gaps created by MR's stock suspension. after that, probably either du-luck carbon fiber kits or intake & intercooler.

Bone stock at 35,000 miles accept new tires.
Id love to install a TBE, IC piping, and tune but Im wating until the 5/60,000 drivetrain warranty is up.
Then maybe stroke, cams, big turbo, and all supporting mods.
BTW not one issue what so ever with this car, accept bending a rim-
[Amsoil and Mobil 1 filters FTW]

I didn't know that our engine and transmission has a 60k/5 year warranty! I have 26k miles on my MR now and completely stock. I wish I had money for coilovers and some Volk wheels though.

Yup, you have a 36,000 mile/ 3 year Bumper to Bumper.
And 60,000 mile/ 5 year Drivetrain warranty. Thats the entire drivetrain not just engine and tranny. Diffs too-
I have a TBE, UICP, a drop in green filter and an AP. I am seriously considering selling all of that stuff though except the AP. I have a custom mellon tune on it though and with just that tune is quite quick. The problem is if I want another custom tune I would need a WBO2 and then another 350.00 for the custom tune so there's another 500.00 that I don't have right now. Not to mention emissions, warranty stuff, etc.
