New to Evo

Hey guys, bought a Graphite Gray 2008 Evo x sss package with 89k miles this last summer locally from a guy that was second owner, stock clutch was on the way out so figured I may as well upgrade to something better since I was planning on full boltons, replaced clutch with a Spec 3+ with competition lightweight flywheel, lasted about 100 miles, throw out bearing poped out, I figured was just a dud so ordered another one, replaced it, that one lasted 150 miles, at that point car went into the garage till this winter, so over winter car got a transmission with 10k miles, competition stage 2 clutch and flywheel, act monolock, love it so far... also did some maintenance while car was down,
ngk oem plugs
fuel pump relay
slave cylinder
master cylinder and awc pump just replaced under warranty
oil change
...so finally got around to installing all my boltons and got tuned on E85, car pulls like a beast but was a little disappointed with final number mods so far are
Ets Upic
Agp cold air intake
Depo 4'' ic
Grimspeed ebcs
Fic 1000
Aem 320 fuel pump

Got tuned on E85 by buschur racing, picked the car up yesterday, car made 336/351, I was expecting a bit more on corn but maybe expectations were a bit high, anyway, thanks for looking at my long boring post but looking forward to meeting you guys

Thanks guys, so far have been loving it, took the car on a trip to Florida and it ran great, was running a bit rich because of the better ethanol in Florida, don't have many very good pics but here are a few

I think it looks great. Aggressive looking & the engine bay looks tastefully modded

Yea, It really bothers me but not sure how to tighten it up, I can align them perfect and in a couple days they are back like this
