My wife didnt say anything after I bought my Evo. She's the kinda wife that if you want it, go for it. But after I finished breaking in my car, drove faster for 140mph, she freaked out and got scared. She then told me that she will never ride on my Evo if I ever drive it faster than 90mph.

I didn't ask, just brought one home ... "look honey, 4 doors, much more practical"
After the break in period she drove it a few times, mostly when I was out of town for extended periods. She rode in yesterday, post Vishnu Stage 1 install, she announced ... "You don't expect me to drive this beast anymore do you ?"

"my precious, my precious ... its mine, we wants it "

Sad.
Call it what you will, I think the last thing any married man wants a wife who's pissed at him. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Yeah, I got it. I have the Greddy Profec, and you can turn it "off" at which point my car only boosts to like 12psi, so yes, theoretically I'm saving gas and wear and tear when I do that. but honestly, I rarely do
