Christ. So many questions... expect roughly .3 off your et.

Gonna do the K&N Panel, Greddy Catback, Ordered a Forge Unos MBC, and will do the DynoFlash e-mail tune. Gonna stay conservative and get it to the track and see what I get out of her before doing the DP, TP, Fuel Pump, and Reflash. Maybe with some good driving I can tap into the 12s since the air is still cold on March 3 when the track reopens. Thanks for all the help with my newbie quetions. My last ride was a N/A LS1 GTO. Mods were easy...still learning more about the EVO everyday.

you should be able to get into the 12's as long as you get tuned for your mods...a stock IX will run 13.0's-13.1's w/ a good driver

So if your still in the break in period you still have not felt the full power of the car stock yet.

If you're still in your break in period I would highly suggest you wait to modify your car.

1. wait till you break in your car... there is no rush to throw mods on a car right away. what if something happens and you have to bring it to the dealer? i would wait and work any kinks out that you might come across during break in. ( i had a couple issues thats why i say this)
2. wait and do ALL of the mods at once. believe me you will make more power in the long run. its really not that much more.

Once its broken in mbc and a tune is a good start.... other than that hookers and blow could be a more enjoyable option.

ttp= turbo trix performance
tbe= turboback exhaust
mbc= manual boost controller

I would wait to do the 02 housing when you decide to port and polish you exhaust and turbo manifold....since it all comes off in 1 unit...cheaper and less time consuming.
