qq steelcity, i am thinking about putting in buschur turboback with magnaflow muffler and cai. know any local shops nearby? also, any good mitsu dealers around here for service... ?

 

I have a buschur magnaflow cat-back, it sounds great....I had it on my VIII for a few months then got the IX and never re-installed it. Im debating going full tbe or keeping my warranty and just throwing the catback on for sh**s and giggles. It fit great on the VIII, the construction on it is very good as well...

 

i am far from an autocross expert, but from a beginner to a beginner i have some good tips for you that other more expierienced drivers have shared with me.

pay attention during your course walk through, do it as many times as you can.

go slow your first run and just make sure you stay on course.

drive the car like you know how to do. you know exactley what you need to do, you just may not realize it yet.

don't worry about being the fastest out there, just try to keep improving a little with each run.

talk to other drivers when you are there. most of them are very friendly and love talking about what they're doing.

and above all, just have fun with it.

 

nice, how long did it take you to do the swap? why don't u just swap when it comes time for service/emissions?

 

I Live In Gbg And Think I Might Have Seen Some Cobalts And S**t At Pep Boys One Night, However I Was Boozin...i Know Bout The Mt Pleasant Stuff Too..actually I Movin Back There Soon...i'm Down For The Street Racin ****, I Know Tons Of Fun Roads Around Here, Good Friend Of Min Has A 500plus Hp S4 That Would Probably Come Out Too..

 

yea supasix, I'll be there on sunday. Im doing the lap day on the north track tho. come find me if you like. Im sure i'll take a few runs on the auo-x course in between sessions. I'll help you out.

Now don't feel bad Dan. LOL. its okay that you have a problem. the first step is admitting it. the real reason i don't race you is you'll woop my ****. no need for me to see just how much faster your car is .

 

well i do all my own work except for the clutch . we are u located two shops that i have dealt with and i would recomend for imports is hybridynamics and emageperformance. hybrid is in youngwood pa emage is in washington. hybrid never worked on my evo outside of welding on a egt bung for me. but emage has done mine and stikiller's clutch's both actually they did all of stikiller's work and he basically got the same setup as me stay away from the mitsubishi dealers

 

they say intakes need tuned cause of the maf. although i ran my apexi without a tune for a few weeks without any ill affects . turboback bolt that on asap u will notice a big difference even without a tune

 

hey steel, yeah, i hate mitsu service back home, i brought it in with a skidplate one time and they refused to work on it...i was like...wtf....but i bring it to the dealer every 5000 miles so they don't void my warranty... j/w if any dealers around here wouldn't mind me bringing it in with a turboback, cai, and muffler

 

sweet man if we get a group or whatever together i will pm ya as i as well live near greensburg/ harrison city to be exact. STEELCITYRACING is looking for racers!!!

 

yo supasixfo, where about in the burgh do u reside?

 

i live by CMU...i guess that's oakland? i'm like 10 minutes from squirrel hill.

 

south park mitsu has been pretty forgiving for me. they have spent a good bit of time trying to chanse down a strange suspension knock i was having. i only have a turbo timer, rear strut tower brace, rear sway bar, and adjustble end links.

but when i took it too biondi they refused to even look for my suspension noise with the sway bar on. so in that respect south park is much more kind.

totally depends on what you are getting done though. if it's not routine service, warranty work, or oil changes i would avoid the dealers.

 

Will you be making it to our next meet, also what is your first name? (sorry if i missed it in previous posts)
