New owner 03 Evo, still getting used to it

Been on the site for a couple months now enjoying the info. Last month got a 03 Evo with 75k miles on it with a few mods. Its in pretty good shape, for me it's something different as I haven't driven a manual in about 17 years so it's been fun and sometimes dissapointing at learning again.Has a stage 2 clutch and lightened flywheel that were put in last year to help witht he learning curve. My kids love it though with either the boost kicking in or when daddy doesn't quite get the shift right and the car shakes lol.

Wife let me get the car, cause I had to give up my Lexus IS300 for a Acura MDX with our 3rd kid. Also previously had a 97 Eclipse GSX so i'm not completely new to the Mitsu scene. Can't wait to get better at driving it so I can fully enjoy my new to me car.
