Hi Everyone 
My name is Shannon, and I just bought a 2004 black Evo VIII. I just moved to MA from Florida. I sold my Miata for the Evo to have a better car for year round driving up here, and well my ex always wanted one. So, I went back and read the last 50+ or so pages to get an idea of who some of you are. Is it just guys in here? I did not see a single post from any girls. Well, I just wanted to introduce myself. And hope to meet some of you at some upcoming shows or gatherings if my schedule cooperates. -Shan

There was at least one girl posting in here a while ago, but she only had a Lancer GTS I think, so you are already cool in my book!
That is awesome! You are definitely cool in my book
Welcome Shannon,
on a different note, what the HELL is happening to the Bruins, I should have learned my lesson years ago, but I still believed in them. At least they made it past the first round this year!

IDK, I figured that Carolina would be a easier opponent compared to montreal but I guess I was wrong. Hopefully they'll pull through.
They're playing like they did in February...no sense of urgency, no passion. They show up and play to not lose as opposed to playing to win. Majorly disappointing.
I posted videos from May 3rd's event. I used a perma-mounted HD camcorder for my car and a windshield-mounted (interior) TachyonXC for Turco's car.
Enjoy!

So this morning I wake up and go to make a run to the store. As I accelerate I hear a weird whistling noise from my engine. I look around and don't see anything obvious but didn't notice any loss of boost so wasn't thinking a leak. I get back home to look further and go to check the air filter box and notice some marks that appear to be like something chewed at the edges of the inlet. Weird
So I look at the filter and either a squirrel or mouse chewed a nice 2 in hole in the middle of my friggin filter! Ok so now I am pissed at that and go to look to find a replacement filter. No one is carrying the K&N drop in anywhere in my area ( this filter is good for 2/3 of all mitsu's from 98-07) and need to order one. But here is the other part thats got me irritated..... the filter is now about $75. Not a huge deal except I have my original receipt from 2 yrs ago and I bought it off the shelf for $49. Holy inflation Batman!!!!!!!! So now I am left with no choice, I put back my oem filter ( yes I kept it for some odd reason that turns out to be a good thing) and just ordered a new intake. Might as well upgrade now since for the dollar its my best option. Ok rant is over
.....and welcome Shannon to the wonderful world of the Evo, just avoid small animals and your good to go

You can have my k & n I used it for maybe 5k miles...
Welcome Shannon but maybe you should read more than 50 pages back considering thats usually a months worth of posting. Good luck with your Evo (damn Blackberry auto correction)
