You aight.

I did answer your question in my post. I didnt think I was coming off as a "tough guy". O well.
My two cents...... Single best investment for my Oz to date...... Coilovers, it's a whole new driving experience after you get em, the car is tighter than tight and it feels a whole level faster than before you did it, it wasn't even my car anymore... Second best..... header install, added alot more in the top end, 3rd and 4th gear pull long and hard, revs alot nicer, and dude does it ever scream when you get hard on the throttle, I love it, the way the power is delivered now combined with the coilovers and good tires just makes it a very, very fun little car to carve up some pavement with... Now I'm never gonna beat anyone in a 1/4 mile, or from a red light, but race a real distance, on some real roads or better yet a nice sweeping track and I've got a chance.. But then again I CAN DRIVE!!!!

I agree with the coilovers. Going from S-techs (and blown shocks!) to the SS kit was night and freaking day.
I disagree with the header thing. I know I had an exhaust leak with my RRM header, but I really didn't feel much added power from it. I didn't miss it a bit when I sold it...

I just don't have a header, my exhaust is straight stainless all the way back to my Magnaflow muffler sans the cat's, with an AEM CAI, the difference felt isn't just th
e installation of the header and downpipe, it was just the final piece that made the other stuff work the way it's supposed to, I don't think I jumped up any real horsepower or anything, but the difference was very noticable within the first 20 minutes out on the open highway for sure...

My Lancer truth.
Putting a four puck clutch in a Lancer will tear the stock motor mounts up. I placed them with the mounts from Deyeme, what a difference. I love how my car launches.

I wish, I live in northern alberta, it's a 4 hour drive south to the nearest Mitsu dealer so the only Dyno I'll be able to use is me.... I wish there was even a drag strip around then I could at least verify my thoughts that way, but no, not even that up here... but like I'll say all the way to my grave, topend feels alot nicer, 3rd and 4th pull real nice now all the way to the redline, real smooth with it getting stronger the higher you take it, above 3000 rpm that is.. Verified Seat of my pants Dyno Run.......

Updated for the two new trends I've been seeing lately.
EDIT - revamped it. I was on a roll.

Blacksheepdj gets funnier each time somebody asks an exhaust question.
Let's slap a 5 in exhaust, individual throttle body, turbo, header and turbo manifold, and let's not forget NOZZZZ. Stupid noobs.
If you really don't understand how cars work or what does what, first do your research then ask questions.
