Anyone know of a low miles 2006 IX for sale around the area? I can't seeing paying the full dealer prices for a new one.
i am not sure how u overmodded that car? it was basically the same as my old setup and it was lots of fun to drive. i just think u needed a better approach to tuning instead of that vishnu method?????

You might be right about the Vishnu, but I was only using the base maps, never go around to a true dyno tune on the car.......but with the 272's and the Tilton installed...the car became a real pain to drive in stop-n-go traffic.

If I pick up a IX, I am probably just going to chill and go with full exhaust upgrade and ECU reflash....and leave well enough. (at least that is what I say now )

Can the dyno day meet wait a month or 2 maybe 3 max lol


I dont see them going out of business, they were doing so well online that they shut down there "in store" selection, and basially only do tunes, installs, and pick up parts.

i was wondering about how far i wanted to mod my evo when i got the chance. what is the overall affect o the 272 and tilton? heavier clutch? what is the power curve with the 272's?
