In other news, the evo is back up at EvoD getting some TLC. Milspec throttle body seals, front motor mount, shifter bushings etc. The major thing is Kevin is doing a retune on SD for E85 and 93. I'm hoping to pick up a few ponies.

I'm wanting to do a back to back dyno comparison between EvoD and Cobb. I know it's been done before. Anyone know if I could do a pull or two at Cobb for a decent price?

Please text me or pm if you get the car.

My evoIX was doing the same thing when I first got it - and w a 3.5"APS exh and trying to be "quiet", it was a major PITA - took off the throttle body and cleaned up the carbon build up andworks great now - but, new seals are in the plan as im sitting at almost 70k miles. Might help for the meantime, though?

I prefer smaller seals... More tight provides protection against leaks.

Any one got an insurance for waterline responsibility in your propertyline. It's $5per month. Do we really need it?
