Finally, I'm an Evo Owner

I've been trying to get one of these rides for a long time and I finally got one.

I'm the proud owner of this car:

http://www.autotrader.com/dealers/dd...lASC&cardist=0

However, now that I got it, I realized a couple things that are not on the car like they advertised.

TME turbo? -> This car still has the stock boy =(

ACT clutch? -> This car "feels" like it has a stock clutch.

I'm actually in the middle of a dilemma with my clutch/tranny shortly after I got it...

here's the link:

any help is appreciated.


I did change a few things:

the exhaust. I went from the 3" vishnu signature exhaust to the APEXi GT Spec 3 3/4" exhaust from a 3" downpipe.

HKS SSQV v.2 Bov

Cold Air Intake


Also:
Its running on the Vishnu XEDE piggyback... any comments on that?

no piggyback is needed. stock ecu is very tuner friendly.

The piggyback came with the car. I just wanted to know what type of reputation Vishnu XEDE has or if I should consider changing it.
