New evo owner previous dsm owner

Hey everyone, my name is travis from kalamazoo, mi...i just recently traded my 1992 galant vr4 and cash for an 03 evo 8. i absolutely love the car here's the mod list
2003 apex silver
60k mi
AMS cnc built head
Kelford 272s (sounds amazing)
Ported exhaust mani
AMS fmic
AMS licp
FP red
Hallman pro mbc
Aem meth injection (being removed)
Exedy twin disk
Megan 3in TBE
AMS 880 injectors
FP intake
Evo 9 bov
Blacked out headlights
JDM evo 7 tails
Rexspeed v2 cf trunk lip
The car made 440 awhp and 412 ft lbs of torque on ams' dyno which are really solid numbers. It pulls insanly hard and without a doubt will run into the 11's.
The first thing i'm going to do is sell the injectors and meth kit and go e85, im hoping for over 500 whp, I picked up a set of lowering springs, cf hood, cf brake ducts and soon to get a cf lip. I'd really like to pick up a set of wheels soon but funds are a little low atm.

On for some pics





I have a small problem and a question, the freeze plug on the front of the block appears to be leaking...i have a set of new 6 bolt freeze plugs, just wondering if they where the same or if i should buy one specific for the evo engine. Anyways i'm glad to start posting and learning all about them

Car looks great and you are definitely heading in the right direction by switching to e-85! Enjoy her and keep her looking great!
