what is the first mod that you have done or going to do to your car?

 

anybody want to share what they have done?

 

This is a good post idea. I'm interested to see what people respond, I just got my evo and I really want to know whats the best thing to do first.

 

The first thing I did was an RMR intake. It's a very good product. I'm going to do an RMR exhaust next.

 

HKS Intake, Catback Exhaust....next will be test pipe, downpipe, and a big saving spree for ems

 

RD Designs Rear stabalizer bar great inexpensive mod
and of course my sound system don't know if that counts or not

 

Congrats on your new Evo. I'm sure you're having lots of fun with it, and it's just the beginning. Modifying it will surely give you more than what you expect. But be careful when you choose this path (mods), 'cuz it could be more expensive and unfavorable gains may result from unmatched aftermarket parts and tuners who doesn't really know these cars (Evo). You may want a tuner who also have their own 4wheel dyno on their shop and has plenty of experience working with the 4G63 engines (i.e. GSX's,Talons...DSM).

Good Luck, pm me if you want futher advise.

 

The first "mod" I did was install a Defi Boost D-gauge. Then, I purchased a Hallman Pro manual boost controller, HKS RS intake, Helix downpipe, Helix Test Pipe, HKS Carbon Ti exhaust....The boost gauge is the only thing on the car right now though. I wanted to drive the car stock for a couple thousand miles before I started modding it. Plus, I've been waiting over a month for my HKS exhaust to get here. I want to install everything at once to feel a bigger difference than piece by piece.

 

Defi boost gauge was my first mod.

 

Turbo timer, Exhaust, MBC, Intake, boost gauge...in that order

 

sure it does

 

i am gonna get some tint

First, I had the dealership put the EVO 7 wing on (like it better on the white car). Then I put in new JL 6.5" speakers all the way around and the Pioneer DVD/CD/MP3 players with the flip-up screen. Then I put on the Cusco titanium front strut bar, Nology Hotwires, Iradium spark plugs, and a new Vivid racing cover. Then I moved on to the complete Injen intake with upper intercooler piping. I just got my boost control and boost gauge that are going in this weekend.

Make sure when you're chosing your mods to do a little research on them first. I definately recommend the Injen for intake. It comes with everything you need, including the upper i/c piping and made a HUGE difference both in performance and sound. Whenever doing anything with the intake or boost control, make sure you have a boost gauge so you can tell if there's any boost leaks. All the fitting may look and feel tight, but that doesn't mean you not losing a couple psi worth of boost.

 

nice
