The carfax looks funny. Three different dealerships where visited and serviced four times within 1400 miles. One of the dealerships was in New York with a 70 mile gap in mileage???

He had 2 shortblocks replaced as that was during the time of the old flashes and he just finally put some pistons in it. If the third motor didn't go on him, then that is a cp piston shortblock with Clevite bearings and stock heads.
Now, this is what I remember of what was told to me from the customer, I know the last compression test that was done (last year around fall), it was pristine.

It's a P&L Stage 2, Twin Muffler exhaust, P&L Down Pipe, , Big Maf Intake, P&L Downpipe P&L 3 Port Boost Solenoid (don't know if it's catted), A/P with Jorge aka RiftsWRX on Nasioc Dyno Tune. He did a stage 1.5 after the first motor went out then (literally with in the first month or so) a bearing failed and he did the stage 1 engine.

Thank you Mark!!! I actually ended up not really liking the car on the second test drive. They let me take it by myself and I did a pull in second gear and it started sputtering in the high RPM's and at part throttle around 3500 RPM the car would shake and sound like a helicopter... ?
I ended up going to Libertyville to drive this

REALLY REALLY liked the EVO X and All of the Mods on the car appear to be AMS. The engine bay looks so clean its almost looks like factory. Had a AMS intake, Intercooler kit, full exhaust, BOV recir kit, Brake cooling ducts, AEM boost and air/fuel, new heavy clutch etc.. From what I could tell. After being at the dealer for 5 hours and it was 10:30 pm with two people in the finance department one more waiting to go before me I just threw my things back in my car and went home. Probably going back tonight.
