The suby guys over in Vegas were pretty straight up guys. I have to admit the pull on this car was seriously suprising. If anyone know a tuner out here in Vegas let me know lol. The Evo side is looking pretty good so far especially the power i can get out of this car

Come join us in the Vegas Evos thread over in the Regional subforum!

On a side note, if you work at the Venetian, I just saw your car in the employee garage.

Welcome to the board... did you get this Evo IX from craigslist with about 66k miles? there is one on Las Vegas craigslist that I have been looking at, I am wondering if this is the same Evo.

@shiftalot: If you looking to switch its worth it! I'm completely happy with power and from a space perspective in the engine bay so much easier to work on. Finally don't have to cut up my knuckles
@gotwheelhop: I'll be looking at that thread more often for sure. As for Venetian that would be me bro. Which car are you in? There were some in there when I was walking out. A blue X, blue VIII, I think a white IX.....

@Carlos: actually the black evo on craiglist was the one I got. The guy posting wentto Audi and got the IS and he traded it.

Not likely you have seen mine. It's very rare that I take my Evo to work. Mine is yellow.

Seems to run smoother the the sti did. I'll be loading some pics later on. But it's pretty much stock. I'm the next month I'll be looking to tune on the 91 oct map. Any one know a good tuner in Vegas???
If your in the market for a bov I have the old school synapse selling for 120 shipped.
