It came shipped like it's put on the car, not in pieces. I really don't know how to take it apart. Its evo 9 instead of evo 8. Evo 8 I think can be taken apart.

looks good so far. Ditch the evo muffler and get a catback, you can find them on ebay for like $200 shipped.
Also get some new wheels

The headlights are nice, I 'm a little skeptical about the sides. I agree with Crypto get some new wheels and coils.

Wow, I forgot all about my build thread. Thanks everyone for your recent posts. I got the actual Mitsubishi Window vents for $60.00. They are so much better than cheap aftermarket ones in my opinion. Next up, I have ordered my VIS evo style carbon fiber hood, should be here in 2 weeks. I also have a fuel rail ordered, going to see how nice this one is. The reason I don't ditch the evo muffler is that it flows really well and isn't going to have the police on me like white on rice, or my rice burner should I say. LOL. They are bad about going after loud exhaust around here. I am planning on header and obx high flow cat next in about a month or so. I got to get the gauge panel for the 3 gauges gruppe s makes. As for rims. I need to get the parts for a 5 lug, rear disk brake conversion. I am looking into some rims that will fit over evo calipers. I think they have a 38+ offset. If anyone has suggestions on 5 lug rims that will fit, I welcome you to post up some suggestions and pics. I am looking into silver, gunmetal and maybe chrome rims in the price range of 400 to 600.

Gruppe-S makes them. They have a home site. Its about 100 I think from them. About the same on ebay for it also. They make it in 52mm and 60mm.

Thanks. I've noticed its a bit louder lately than normal with the stock header and cat, I hope it doesn't get much louder with the new ones when I get them. Police don't even look over at me now, and I drive by the local sheriff's, town police and court house office almost everyday to work. They are always outside and never look over, guess mine is quite.

Update
I should be getting an A.E.M. FPR right when I get my fuel rail.
