Picked up an Evo X

I picked up an Evo X and I love it. The car has around 5k miles on it and every time I start it, I get the service message. I already did an oil change along with a new filter.

Is there a procedure to reset the service message?

Never mind. I found a link on you tube for it.

Anyways... fun little car especially on our slippery roads.

Its making 338whp or so from AMS Intercooler, DP and full Akropovic exhaust and tuned by Chris from AMS safely on 91 octane.

I bought the Evo X because its one of the most fun cars I have driven on our slippery roads. For some reason, the asphalt here (Riyadh City) is like glass and all my powerfull 2wd cars are useless here. Even my Evo spins all 4 tires through 1st gear and that's not because of the power, its just show how slippery the roads are.
The Evo X with 330whp or so is just a blast and sliding it around all the time while having full control is just priceless. The rotation of the Evo is unmatched by even the new STi or Golf R.

My goal with it is around 400whp on 91 oct with as fast a spool up as possible. I see FP Green, GTX3071R or GTX3576 in the near future to keep things exciting.
