You aren't kidding. Here is a story on when I determined my Evo X was too quiet...

I went to go get gas, so I pulled in and put the parking break on. Since I have fast key, I don't have to remove any keys or anything. So I just got out and pumped gas, got back in and went to start the car up.....IT WAS STILL ON!!! I never shut it off...and never realized it the whole time I was pumping gas.

I hope to fix that super quiet sound in a month or so...

when it runs in my garage it rumbles the house with this low frequency hum but on the road it is quiet and with it running in the driveway all you hear is clackity clakity clackity clack.

i felt like a dude in a hybrid camry last night with all the XIIIs and IX (maybe just all IXs). the car is relatively fast and handles better than i could ever drive it though.

I'm sure I'll be able to make it Chu, I just have to check up on my busy schedule.

I think it is definitely time for our Xs to start throwing some mods on, at least an exhaust. You guys will love the difference I can guarantee you that.

www.imageshack.us 640x480 for message boards, make sure you check the box to resize the image. Host the picture. Once it uploads the photo, scroll down the page to where it says hotlink for forums (1), unckeck the include details box right above it, and copy the link. Then post it in the post on Evom and you can delete everything outside of the two [IMG] brackets. So anything within and including [IMG] is what you want to paste to the evom post.
