Smile New memeber from Nor Cal

Hey everyone! I'm new to evom and just wanted to introduce myself.

My names Beatrice (yes, I'm a female) and I have a built Graphite Grey 2006 Evo MR that's getting 375awhp on a e85 tune, dual map (91 and e85). It has cosworth m3 cams, stage 2 clutch, APR head studs, 1400cc injectors, 400lph fuel pump, mil spec 100 cel cat, buddy club racing spec III exhaust, MXP downpipe, Apex'i intake, ETS 3.5" IC piping, ETS LICP and UICP, Perrin EBC, Synapse BOV, comp clutch steel flywheel, Blox motormount, Gretty turbo timer, girodisc stage 2 slotted rotors and magic brake pads and last but not least swift springs. At least I think that's everything...

Next mods are going to be coilovers and a new turbo. Also wanting to get new wheels but I'm having a hard time deciding on which ones. Lol.

Welcome! Does this Evo have the original 6speed? If so if I were you instead of spending money on a new turbo I would swap/build the transmission. 6 speeds are known to be weak.

Coil-overs and wheels would be nice! If you need help installing those coil-overs just let me know.

Yes I am located in Milpitas. I enjoy teaching those that are new to the platform all the things they should know. Feel free to ask me questions if you need some advice.

Someone was really bored and looked through my post history. Whatever the case mission accomplished. Troll post is a success.

Dual map tune like yours 91/E85. I have been running straight E-85 for almost three years. Getting close to the point where I need to check my fuel injectors to make sure they are clean still.

Ok because I'm having some issues which I think are from a bad clutch but not sure if my cold start issue is. I posted this thread about it https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/evo-engine-turbo-drivetrain/711241-shaking-full-load-boost-stalling-cold-start.html

I was thinking it could be the injectors? Or something to do with the e85 tune but I'm really not sure

Coalinga is 2 hours from me, I live in a small town called Atwater. I know where coalinga is because my fiancé has one of her RN classes down there.
