value is there. We plan to make them even better too.

Timing Control box is next for this. It has been in BETA testing for about a month too. Very impressive so far.

V6 right now but we are starting the 2.0T version shortly too. We expect some serious gains there too.

We have used some coilovers and adjusted accordingly.

Oh ok so that make sense. So they are no lowering springs to use for this car? U would have to go full coilovers?

It's good to see that a company is out there making parts for the V6 vice the 2.0T. Your company is definitely bookmarked for future purchases on my newly acquired Genesis Coupe V6 Track.

It is a great car. Performance wise there aren't that many cars that can compare with the raw guttural feel of the Evo, but I didn't get the Genesis Coupe for the raw performance. It does have plenty of get up and go though. I just have to wait for the 600 mile break in period before I can really get on it. The amenities don't even compare. The Hyundai beats the Evo even the X hands down. Its fit and finish are outstanding. This car even has heated seats. I'm loving the Homelink system and integrated Bluetooth. Everything is automatic; windows up and down, push button start, Bluetooth connection with my phone, sunroof, entry, etc... I know there will be some things that I will miss with the Evo but this car has made the transition very easy.

I know the standard amenities are great. I had a chance to check out the 2.0T Track model b4 i bought my RA and i really liked it. The only thing the 4cyl lacks is speed but i understand why. The car is downright sexy from all angles and a hell of a bargain for what it is. If i were to change cars (non Mitsubishi) that would be my 1st choice. Congrats again on the purchase
