Oh yeah change of big plans for the evo, i got some new rims yesterday, and i bought a set of buschur drop in pistons and rods. Now my market for a turbo system is hopefully in the 6-700whp area now

yeah. i was sad to see it go. now he's looking for another hatch. the guy doesn't know what in hell he wants. LOL last i remember the thing was putting down over 600whp. can i take a run at Famoso???
as for the o2: no. i'm only home on wed/sat/sun. i'm usually busy running errands on wed, can do it on sat if there is room in the shop, and the shop is closed on sundays. i'm looking to start sat and get the shop keys for sunday to finish. i have a lip, o2, and new LICP to install. i can't do it all on sat 'cause rob is buy and i may have to do it outside. screw that. it's cold. haha.
i'm gonna try to get the stuff done Wed. it may be a late night.
i also got some springs. do you have any Whiteline hook ups?? looking for bump-steer, roll center, and steering precision kits. i'd like to install all at once and only have to do ONE alignment.

Supertech valvesprings and retainers
Cosworth M2 cams
Tomei cam gears
BR Spec Pistons
Still undecided on rods but im probably going to get some carillos
Buschur BFIC
Buschur full piping
Custom top mount manifold
