Got most of the stuff torn out that's in the way of the EM/IM. Only spilled about a quart of coolant and have a blood spattered IC pipe now lol. Also I got my "got evo?" shirt .

Fun fun!!





Decided to skip on the IM and TB porting (sucks since I already bought the gaskets). I might due those later on in the summer. I will probably get the Mil.spec 65mm TB and their IM porting combo.

How fast does Mellon tune? I should get this done tomorrow, Thursday at the latest. I wonder if he can get me in Thursday or Friday so I can have the beast ready for the weekend.

mellon is very particular about tuning evos. if im not mistaken, i think i did a total of 10 logs (probably more) before wrapping up.

Yea but did his services become $100 better all of a sudden? I know he's good, obviously he knows he's good. But what am I getting now that I couldn't get 1 month ago?

hmmm... i know i paid 350$ back in october. $250 option was just for the basic tune with no extra columns for accurate fuel mapping. there were 6 options, now only 3. i still say it's worth it. prolly mellon can chime in here to justify his services although in tuner review section, all were happy with his services though.
