No dyno results that I've seen.

Couple videos that I found running through the thread.

Dyno results will hopefully follow soon, in the mean time, a 5th piping canister variant is on the go to reduce sound further, video is on you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayu1qzLVVKA

Also received shipment of the evo x rear bodykit today, the box looked a bit man handled but all seems well inside the box

9-5 job??? I havent had one of those sense ummm 2001 techinically. from 2002-later 2007 I worked as a NYSE and Nasdaq Prop. Trader, trading the firms capital. Although that wasnt the the only thing I have been into, I use to be involved in Art at least in the Comic variety, I shifted that over into writing, so I would also wear that hat as well, I will be releasing a graphic novel with a few options open to production project, the story is that good. I still provide private financial advising services for investing and I manage a small private investment pool.


In terms of sponsorship, part of it is that I have projects I want to get off the ground myself, I wouldnt call the sponsorships a one-sided deal, I am also initiated a few aftermarket efforts and designs myself with certain companies. At this point profit is not the objective to my cause, if it was I will still be trading 500,000 shares a day pimping Intel Corp or Motorola. What can I say I like working with cars and I love my lancers.

The evo soul way - have a level of talent that makes the vendor need you as much as you need them, approach them with a suitable offer, hope for the best.

The normal way - have a car that's so badass, it wins a lot of car shows. Apply to a vendor, using your award-winning car as proof that you can help them advertise, hope for the best.

The short answer - work your *** off.

Saw your video of it, really it looks nice, good idea, but don't see it happening. I know you want to sell it, but you are asking people to either cut into their bumpers or buy a low quality fiberglass cover from you, in addition to the cost of the pipes. I don't know man. Neat idea, but strictly for show.

thanks for the kind words BlueGTS,

for others who may run with this the wrong way though, I wanna put it clear that, I am not putting this out there to selling it retail, either for the dual exhaust or the rear bodykit or the any other external rear mod. I would simply put people on the path to making the same thing I have on my ride. my objective at this point isnt for profit, these are just projects period, excess revenue would be pushed towards the next project. What can I say? I am a one man show, with the help of friends and promotional/sponsored allies nothing more. If anything, this package would be done in limited release and thats it, then move on to the next project.

Second, besides just for show, the purpose of this paticular upgrade is striking a good balance between performance and sound. Sound for me says alot, but for everyone, its different, some go for performance above all else, some are all about the look, even the type of sound it makes leads people in different directions. I put this together for my own expression, if people like it, great, if they dont, thats fine too. The reception I have gotten has been mixed, to each his own right?

I love this car, hooking with my my team of tuner friends and hammering something together is fun, but i would never recommend something for this car unless I have tested it or evaluated it myself thru and thru.

Cliff's Notes:

Evo soul is modifying his car to make it the way he likes it. Not selling you a part. Don't treat him like a vendor because he's just a regular guy working on projects. If you don't like what he's doing, that's fine. To each their own.
