Greetings!

I recently purchased a 2008 Octane Blue Evo X w/ SSS. It is an absolute blast to drive and I couldn't be happier with it. The previous owner installed a boost gauge, RA mudflaps, and put a K&N drop in filter in the car, but other than that it is stock. My brother and I installed the badging on the front grill.



So here she is!







And some photos with my brother's 2006 STi







Hope you enjoyed the pics! I am happy to be a part of the community. Let me know what you think.

 

talk about sibling rivalry lol, enjoy!!

 

I know right? Didn't take long for us to try and settle the timeless debate if you catch my drift... haha. And thanks!

 

Congats!

 

Your car's cooler...thats just me.

 

congrats on the evo
any plans for it?

Nice. Still looking for mines too!

 

When buying cars, I prefer buying them that are completely stock or very close to stock. Anyways, nice Evo. How much did you pay for it?

 

Thanks!

I like your taste

Well, first I am going to get a catback and then take it to Buschur's for a tune, that is next summer.

Long term I have 3 choices that I am torn between:
1. Full bolt-on stock turbo w/ tune - about 350 whp give or take
2. Upgrade to FP Green/Red/Black with supporting mods
3. Upgrade to AMS or ETS style turbo kit

I know I want to stay on pump 93, and I don't want to buy parts that will just be swapped out later so I have to find a goal and stick with it. I just can't decide... any helpful insights?

Very nice! I wish you the best of luck, let me know how an X compares to your IX when you finally get it

Thanks! I agree with you, the best part is making the car yours and that is easier to do with a stock car. It had 14,600 miles on the odo when I got it. Picked it up for 26.5k with 2 sets of tires. The guy I got it from took excellent care of the car, it was in mint condition.

Thanks a lot guys! Any suggestions are welcome!

 

Looking good buddy, congrats...

 

Awesome car Kevin, we have to meet up one day in FSB and talk Evo. You'll have to bring me for a ride once you have it here.

 

Love that STI! I'm a hardcore Suby guy, and had been looking for a clean low miled 06 STI for almost a year when I finally "settled" on a new Evo 10. Yes I know the Evo X is by far the better and more sophisticated performer, but the STI just has a feel to it that I always loved. Maybe it's the unrefined and flawed but raw nature of it. Plus the way they sound with a good exhaust!

Anyways congrats on the 10! Great color choice!

 

Congrats on the purchase. Interested in what you finally decide to do on modding your car.

 

Will it ever be...! Lol...

 

Nice car and colour, Evo better than Subaru
