Just picked up my Evo ^^

Sup guys, my names Brian but people call me Leo, picked my up my 2010 WW evo, loving the damn hell out of it. Looking forward to modding and what not. I didn't go with a GSR because the clutch is heavy + it would have been my first manual car, don't have 2gs for a clutch, etc.
Anyways, here is a quick pic. Gotta do some research on what I should do first. Probably going with cobb ap.

Depending on mileage make sure you do the timing chain sooner rather than later. There was an issue with cars prior to 2011 having a stretch issue. Enjoy the car!

I suck at intros lmao, my bad about the picture not working. 15k miles, how soon do you do the timing chain? Been slacking on doing research... Lowered on billstein springs, have the stock ones as well. Rides nice and I love the ride height.
iphone 6 + shots for now.. camera had no battery ><
No nav, but I don't care for it. I'm happy enough to finally have this car after years of waiting and wanting

Thanks ^^ I'll keep that timing chain in mind when I get towards 35k. Comments are much appreciated btw guys.

Noticed a couple things, no belly pan ( should I be concerned ? ) and the fuel pump relay is the black one..
