Evo Noob

Hello evom!

I've been lurking these forums for a while, but didn't actually get my X until a couple of days before Christmas. Pretty damn sweet Christmas present if you ask me. I came from an 08 Caliber SRT4. It was putting down 380/360 on a conservative pump gas tune at 18 psi on an upgraded stock turbo. Was all set for a built motor and big turbo setup when I decided to part out and move on to AWD. Maybe I'll get around to a big turbo this time. Here is the CSRT:





And here is the X, two days post purchase, after drifting around town:



Installed my Invidia Q300 CBE one day when it was warm:



It's got plenty of flaws, but I got it cheap. The paint is beat up and the previous owner drilled the dash for gauges. Oh well. I'll probably be even worse haha. The only good things were that the interior was in immaculate shape and it already had a Nisei LICP and UICP installed.

I had a lot of success working with Realtune and AGP in the past and I'll likely do the same this time around. I'm also in touch with CBRD. CB seems like a good guy. So far I've purchased:

AMS DP
ETS TP
Invidia Q300
AGP FMIC
AGP UICP & LICP
AGP WGA
AGP Catch Can
AGP Crank Case Breather
Synapse BOV
DW 800cc Injectors
Subtle Engine Cover

I'll get around to installing this stuff once the weather is nice and warm.

Also, anyone need a Cobb AP? I just bought one used from this forum, but decided I'm going the ECUflash route instead. I can't list it until I get to 15 posts.

Anyhow, I'm loving the evo so far, it just needs a good bit more power. Looking forward to going to local meets and hopefully chronicling my build process on evom!

Cheers,

Matt
