Cool Greetings... My New EVO

Greetings All,

I have just purchased a 2003 EVO VIII with a bunch of mods. Incredible car, period. I have been lurking in this forum for a few months, and was always envious of your cars. Well, now I'm part of the club. Will provide a list of mods to gather oppinion on what needs to be done next. Car is very fast, and working like a champ. It has a Greddy Boost controller, and in the "Hi" setting, is locked into 1.6 bar of boost. On the low setting, it is around 1.1 bar of boost.

It seems that I just can't wait for my first track day with NASA at either Thunderhill or Laguna in the next few weeks, so I’m busy working the turbo in the mountains of Colorado. Pure joy!!!

Just wanted to say hello and say thanks for the site...

Cheers,

OS

Going back to California tonight, so I'll post the list of mods as soon as I make sense of all the paperwork that came with the car. Probably on Thursday. Being new to all of this, I'm looking forward to all of your input concerning the mods, what to look out for, what to do next, etc... The fuel pump issue raised above is already on top of the list, and need to make sure this was done... Given the comment, I have already dialed back the boost to 1.4 bar for right now, until I know for sure...

Cheers,

OS
