New Evo owner in Alabama

Hey everyone,

My name is Vincent and I just picked up a 06 IX RS last week and so far it's been great! Been wanting an Evo for a long time and I finally got my wish. Been registered on the forum for a while but have rarely posted. Look forward to learning and getting to know fellow enthusiasts.

I am in the Birmingham area.

Mods list:

GSC Stage 2 cams and springs
Larger FMIC
Upgraded hard IC piping, has Tial BOV that's VTA but I'm about to go back to my Injen UICP with stock 9 BOV
1550 cc injectors
Hallman boost controller with in cockpit controller
Full 3" exhaust with resonator
MAP divorced o2 dump
ACT Clutch/Fidanza flywheel
Upgraded rear diff (12 clutch plates)
Weir diff plate mod
JIC FLT-A2 coils
All whiteline bars
Works trunk cage
Cusco front brace
JDM Rear bumper
Rear end links
Polyurethane everything
Custom semi-flat paint job
Bride Low Max seats
Nice stereo system and legal tint
Defi boost gauge, AEM oil pressure
Enkei RPF1's 17 x 9.5 with Direzza Star Spec's

That's all I can think of right now. Got a minor exhaust leak on the o2 housing I gotta fix, put on the stock style UICP with stock BOV, and then a re-tune for pump and E85 to see what it makes. Just rolled over 110k and still running strong!

I have several friend's who have Evo's and I hope to plan a meet in the near future. I will let you guys know!

Here are a few more pics. These are just some quick shots with the cell phone. I hope to have some better pics in the next few days.

Thanks!

I'm not sure exactly. It was done by a shop in Atl and the formula is a secret kept by him.
