Picked up my evo today.

So since I was 15 I've owned 4 cars, all of which have been hondas. I went from a 1990 auto integra to this...

My Supercharged FG2


The car was totalled last month. I was hit by a 70 year old lady in a Chrysler 300 on the highway. I suffered spine and neck injuries, and they are now suspecting rib injuries also. BUT!

Here's what I'm driving now..



I love this car. So much fun and I've only drivin it home! haha. Can't wait to start the build.

Was your SI faster than your Evo?

Sorry about old ladies having a drivers license. Boost heals body injuries.

Thanks. It's cool. Should be collecting a hefty settlement.

XS intercooler
Tein Mono Flex

Well the Evo CLEARLY has more torque than my Civic but the Civic made 300whp and the power was very linear. The Evo doesn't seem much faster.....but it will be.Haha yea, slamming into my lovely Recaro feels REAL good on the back. haha

Oh and I was also thing about putting those RPFs from my civic on my Evo after I change the tires to 255/40/17. The wheels are staggered offsets. 17x9 +35 and +22. I think the RPFs in 17s would be a little on the small side. What do you think?
