Well, I guess I'll be the first one to congratulate you and not criticize you punctuation. And yeah, it's hard doing stuff like that on a brand new car. You should have seen me when I drilled the holes for the front license plate

Lol, hope you really are padded for the smack!

Congrats on your first mod. I know how nervous I got changing parts around on my first car but I noticed you make more mistakes when you're nervous. Just calm down and tell yourself you wouldn't start the process unless you were confident in yourself and just finish it strong.

So much easier actually having gauges that you can look at huh? I did this mod with only 10 miles on my Evo.

No don't! Please don't do a short ram without a tune. Which short ram did you want to go with?

Wait to install the intake until you get your TBE and get a flash for both mods OR you can purchase a TBE first, then purchase the HKS RS and get flash then.

Installing that HKS unit without a flash for the part is asking for problems.
