You can buy spring compressors at Harbor Freight for like $8 (literally). There probably isn't an easier mod to do on the Evo, IMO...grab a v-howto (machevo.com) and give it a try.

As for the 22ga wire: it's bell/alarm wire. Usually comes in 2-4 conductor configurations in the home improvement stores... i have like 300 feet for the 4-conductor stuff...how much do you need?
Oh okay thanks for the info, yah ill probably do the springs myself, did my oil pan gasket yesterday which was kind of a ***** without a lift.

I dont need that much, i just need some wire to install my oil pressure gauge, and wideband.

thanks for volunteering my services


I'd be happy to take pics of your car this weekend unless, of course, you fill my schedule with other peoples cars....

In all seriousness, I have to clean up the fallen trees this week/weekend. Once that's done, we can squeeze in some pics-snapping time.

Dave is busy until further notice. His people will call your people when and if time is available or when and if he feels he wants your presence in his life at that time.
