Va Beach EVO's
yeah but as far as the meet thing goes lol i will not be able to put it together do to the fact that i am currently doing work ups on the Truman. meaning as a lot of you no not to much time in port about 60 days total this year then i leave for 8 months in october so if someone or anyone hears of anything i will keep checking in to see if anything is going down on one of my days off. but the dicks parking garage is a badass spot.
Sorry I should have been more clear. I've never heard anything bad about their labor. But when it comes to actual tuning, I've heard and read several things about them blowing motors on the dyno. Basically if it wasn't a honda they had no idea. This was a few years ago too.
I guess they did rebuild my buddies 1jz and it spun a bearing a week later (it ended up spinning 2 or 3 bearings over its short life). He dropped off the motor prior to deploying with the agreement that it would be done when he got back. They hadn't touched it in the 6 months he was gone.
This is the only bad thing I've heard about their actual work.

Is This a Good Deal?
I know ive already posted once with pics on an evo asking for tips hopefully no one will mind if i do it one more time. I found a rally red 2003 Evo with 52k miles for 16,900 and the price fits perfectly for my budget, the car seems taken very well care of for the most part. i cant find anything aftermarket and is said to be completly stock to the best of their knowledge. carfax is clean with 1 minor fender fix noted on the carfax. only 1 owner. if you see in the dash it has like a metallic piece i dont think thats normal...but minor. and it doesnt have the tarmac gravel and snow button...but it has a button to spray water on the intercooler ( feel free to jab at me for lack of knowledge ).
my thoughts exactly, im definatly no expert but i dont see anything aftermarket even those window things say mitsubishi on them. I jumped at the deal too because i want one as stock as possible i came straight home to post on here to the experts lol
Even if it did have a few mods i wouldnt mind but from what you guys can tell would you take a deal like that? even with my upside down ralliart im walkin out the door with a evo for under 20k only thing that sucks is im goin from an 06 ra with 28k miles to a 03 with 50k
Look at the boost control hoses for any non-stock looking clamps (my "stock" evo had a bunch of yellow zipties) and to see if its routed correctly. I met a guy that had just gotten an evo, and wondered why it was so slow. I looked around his motor for anything obvious and his boost control hoses weren't hooked up even remotely correct. They had one hose going from the turbo to the solenoid and another from the solenoid to the wastegate. Luckily I lived a couple blocks away and had my stock hoses laying around.
