Good job. For comparison sake, tell all the boys and girls what that cost you.

Thanks guys... Im a noobie here and now im hooking up my 2nd project (Lancer)... No matter what people say switching from Honda to (DSM) i like it.. Something new and different 4 me. So im on the (DSM) "Bandwagon" I believe that something different will bring more of the "Shock & Aww" moment in the industry. Like "Hey there goes that JDM'ed Out Lancer"

must we also remember that a lancer is NOT a DSM. it is a mitsubishi however, but not a dsm. the dsm's (diamond star motors) were considered the 1st and 2nd gen eclipses, talons, and lasers.

It could be a placebo effect but I think seafoam worked great for my car at 140k km.
It just felt like it was smoother and more peppy.

btw how much is that timing belt gonna cost you? Its just ridiculous how much the dealership wants to charge me but I do hear it takes a while to replace.
