I heard some good things about this site so I thought I would join. I just bought an Evo X a month ago and love it so much. I live in Pa so I took it to CBRD after the break in period was over and had them upgrade the FMIC, Cobb intake, and and exhaust. Got a 20Hp increase and 20 torque so it wasn't to bad. Chad said that Mitu had a upgraded ECU map which min car has since it's later in the year. anyway it had about 10 Hp more then his which was one that came out right away. So that was a nice little bonus to learn about. So that and the tinted windows are the only things I have done to it for now.

I have some pics but i have to resize them so they aren't so big so I will do that at a later time. Just thought I would get my feet wet awhile.

Take it easy,
Tom

 

welcome. nice. good to hear. the x is begining to grow on me. everything i have heard about cbrd is positive.

 

Yeah they have been great with everything for me I would highly recommend them. Which reminds me all the stuff they took off if anyone needs let me know. Stock FMIC, air filter, and exhausts. Just barley went over 600 miles to break it in and I had everything upgraded. I also would like to get rid of the stock tires since winter will be on it's way in a month or two. Right now I have 800 miles on them. I just want enough to get a good pair of all season tires for it. So if anyone is interested let me know.

 

Congrats on the new evo. CBRD is a great shop, very clean and very professional there.

 

Welcome!

 

Thanks guys. Next CBRD will be installing an APS BOV and then tune it for me. Then I will be looking to get new all season tires. So if anyone would like the stock tires please let me know. I have just under 900 miles on them as of right now.

Which all season tires do you recommend? I want something that will at least last me 30k miles or more. I have some time before the snow comes but I want to be prepared.

So thanks again guys and I will update you when the tune is done what kind of numbers I get. Then I will post some pics up.

 

Hey I'm back again I am getting my car tunned this Friday by CBRD in York. So with adding the FMIC, Cobb intake, and the ultimate racing cat back exhausts I have 281 whp right now. Chad was thinking he can get it to 310 whp. Then when he gets the updated files he will be able to squeeze out a few more for me. I will be just happy to pass the 300 whp mark. So I will keep mine like this until the warranty runs out and see where I want to go then. I love it a lot now so after Friday I will be like a little kid on Christmas morning when I get my car done. So I will get some pics for you guys and post up what numbers I actually get.

 

Well guy Chad came through yet once again. I ended up with 309 T and 317 whp so all in all I am very happy with the results. Next on the list is a Cobb Access PORT to squeeze out a few more ponies. Then I think I will take a break from performance mods and save up for some nice wheels and the Rally Art tail lights.

 

Welcome i am also new to the forum. Nice EVO. wish i could afford one
