Greetings from a Evo newby!!
Sups guys and gals. I stumbled upon this site while researching about the new Evo X. I have found a lot of useful information here, and unlike most of 8thcivic.com, I really like the general positive attitude this community exhibits. Anyway, just introducing myself. Here are a couple of pics of my current ride. I should be in my X within the next month, provided the dealer and GM holds up their end of the bargin





I'm really gunna miss the civic, besides the FWD and lack of tuning, but what an overall upgrade the Evo will be. I have always wanted one, but could never afford it while I was working on my Bachelors in school.

Lol. Thanks
Thanks bro. It made 300whp at 6 lbs. The reflash can handle up to 8.5 but I didn't have time to have it dyno'd there. I drove over 15hrs to Ft. Lauderdale to get the kit installed and on the last day of the install we left the shop at about 12:30am heading to dyno tune her, but I had that long drive back the next morning and wanted to get some sleep so I only got 3 pulls. The car probably has about ~345whp at 8.5psi. Here is the mod list

I can't decide on which exhaust I want to get... I heard some video clips of the vishnu Evo X and its sounds nice and deep (Is that stock exhaust w/ just intake?).
My original plans for this car was all AMS products though... FMIC, Upper and lower ICP, Intake, downpipe and exhaust. But im not really feelin' the AMS exhaust note... I dunno which way I want to go

Well I still don't have the car =[ Turns out the GM supposedly had some room to play because the dealership was being bought out, but the old owners only gave him so much time to have some money to play around with, so I'm back to the drawing board looking for an Evo in my area. Looks like I will be getting a WW instead of gray. And I will never buy from that particular dealership.
