Now back to having to trouble shoot it was running great for about 250 miles that i had it on the road so now doing some research through the forums to see if i can find if anyone had the same issues

Heres a good thread on the oil change process which will also help in deciding which one to go with:

Our FS forum has been active for many, many years w/1000's of successful transactions.

When it comes to car pricing, not exactly sure how the monies are exchanged. On parts sales, for sure Paypal is the preferred method

So i am an absolute diesel enthusiast. But my world is farrrr from this one. Im looking for an unmolested 06 evo IX likely build the car to push its limits. I have seen many people say you can make 600 whp all day with this car. So am i building for 800 whp and detuning for this result? And someone give me a rough idea on how much it will cost to build one of these cars that far. Comparatively to my world. Its dirt cheap to build these cars but i would still like a reasonably accurate idea on how much it will really cost to do this. $ isnt an issue. I just wanna try a different industry and have some fun with it. Will always have my diesel but i want reliable 600whp evo if i can get it. And what companies are good for parts on these cars. Obviously if im gonna spend this kind of money on a car after purchased. I dont wanna buy anything twice.

Thanks for posting up. A clean 06 EvO will cost approx 22K & up. Cost to re-build an engine & valvetrain is approx 10K. You will want to consider re-building the other drive train components as well (front differential, trans & rear diff) Add another 5K-7K for that work
