Thanks guys... I"m located in the Richmond Hill/ Jamaica Area of Qns

So Far I have a Forge Unos MBC, Greddy BOV and Walbro Fuel Pump to put in. Then I'll do the interior and line up my Defi Gauges in the Center Console...Then I'll get some Tints. Make me look mysterious...

SSL? Nah, it's the regular Alcatara inserts black on the recaros. But it has a sunroof, the owner had the dealer put it in for him.

Also, I hear these IX's don't have HIDs, so that's possibly another upgrade I need to accomplish.

I still got my lancer....

Dang...that was a good deal. I'd say sell the Greddy BOV. Your stocker is great. Install your mbc and fuel pump, change fluids, get a tbe and a tune and you'll be good! congrats.

Why? to keep the warranty current?

Really? is the stock one that reliable?
IF I change the Fuel Pump, will I need a tune right away? Or is that just a modification for complimenting future endeavors?
