Welp, sold my 2005 Evo 8 to a Tucson guy who is loving it just as much as I did.

So I upgraded and picked this up from "awhitesti" on these forums. Car looked super clean from the ad, and it's actually way nicer in person!

2008 WW GSR
Aero / SSS
All ETS goodies
Perrin FMIC
Stock Turbo tuned on 93
385/346 tuned by English Racing

Voltex front lip
Iforged Neo 19x10 with 275/30/19
BC Coils
Rexpeed goodies

Car was raised for the trailer, still have to lower it. Too excited to do anything today!









Can't wait to start giving it a taste of my own.

Future plans include possibly ditching the iforged, getting something with a lot of concave. Will lower it back down about an 1 - 1.5 inches. PTE 5857 or 6262 is in the future as well...

Want to do 420-440 on 91 pump gas, stock head/block, etc. I understand that as long as I keep torque around 350-370, I should be pretty safe.

 

Great buy! WW FTW!

Why are you going back to 91 if it's tuned for 93?

 

They mostly only have 91 out in Arizona. Good stuff man

 

Yeah, we only have 91 / E85...I'd do E85, but I don't think map switching is an option yet on the X's, and my wife would kill me if I made this car an E85 only car.

 

Map switching is def available. I'm not loving the wheels, but the car looks great..

 

Looks real clean dude.

 

not feeling the wheels at all but the car looks very clean man how you liking it so far compared to your 8? as bad as all the 8 and 9 guys say it is? lol

 

Haha it's so much nicer than the 8/9...it's so much more practical of a car, and as you "grow up" you lose the need for that "raw" feeling that you get with 8/9 and start wanting a comfier ride.

This car even being on 19s and BC coils is super comfy, not a squeak or a rattle anywhere, drives like a dream.

Will possibly be ditching the i-forged for something with a lot of concave (Grids, XXR 527, etc), but these wheels are MUCH nicer in person. Way better than pictures. The tires are 90%, so might just ride them out and then sell the wheels when its down to 25% tread or so.

 

Congrats man! How many miles?

 

is that first pic at QT ?

 

First pic is at Circle K (Baseline/Stapley)

40k miles on her, 2008.

 

Congrats, I think i messaged you on facebook earlier cause you randomly popped up on my news feed haha.. Looks good man

 

congrats WW looks so good

 

Lowered the front down about 2" today, it was raised from being transported by trailer:

 

Wheel spec pls, spacers?
