And mod-to-mod, I highly doubt there will be much a difference at all. If anything, slightly better spool up time on the SE turbo's -from what I've heard- but I'd bet that difference is gone with mods.


Edit: Then again, the red stitching is more aerodynamic.

lol They do account for something when the drivers are of the same skill.

Wait you do know she has close to 400 wheel torque and over 350awhp right?

Even a horrible driver driving her car should have absolutely no problem taking a stock Evo and she is a pretty good driver.

LOL true true. I merely jest.

Btw, where did you get your HKS Cr-Ti cut? How much did it run you? I was thinking of going that route as well, can't wait to see/hear it on your IX

Exhaust was cut by AMS.

How much? I don't know since it was done by the previous owner. I would imagine around $100 or so. Definitely worth it.

Won't be installed till mid January. Perhaps there will be an indoor meet/get together around that time. You'll get to hear it then I assume.

don't get injen... it's ****. go with any major brand name. Just look at the coupling near the intake manifold... can you say "blown intercooler pipe?". If you plan on any higher boost than stock...

Just don't get it... there are plenty of reviews on intercooler piping on here so just do the research yourself.

People will laugh at you when you pop your hood!

Really, so, you have experience that happened. bec from my personal experience with 30 psi . had no problem and for the price and function its a decent piece.

and yeah, no one laugh at me for 4 yrs now.

Haha touche

I've gotten MUCH better since then. If I went back with my new mods I bet I could cut a 12.0 but I doubt I could launch it. lol

Clutch will definitely be next thing on my list though.
