Redline this weekend?
I hope someone is going to it, unfortunately I will be out of state. Kinda pissed actually, would love to see the event.

As far as fender rolling, whoever is interested just add ur name below. I'm assuming weekends work best for you working world folk?

Rollage:
Doug
Ryan
Danimal
Marc
Pete

I remember you guys would meet up a lot at the mall in KOP or the museum in Philly. Any special reason for this meet to be in Morgantown, PA?
the morgantown meet isn't just us. it is a huge meet involving multiple states. you might be able to find a group cruising out there from your area on tst's site.

I'm also down for the roller as I've said before. There's a few cold NN's in it for you Chu.
I machined the injectors to fit. I came into work even though I'm sick as hell just so I could get that done.

Are we gonna have electricity for the heat gun? If some of you guys want to get together Saturday, I can try and get the roller for Saturday. I'll see if I can grab Thai's roller off Pete, and borrow anotehr friends roller so we can have two for the day, and knowck a unch of peeps out!

***I'm going to make a liability claim here, and say that anyone rolling fenders will have a very high chance of cracking their paint. You guys should all know what you're getting into before deciding to do it!

I have a power inverter I can bring with, and a heat gun, but I don't think it will run off my little PC680.

also, I don't intend on cracking my paint... I thought you said you did this before? is that what happened when you tried it? why did it crack?

i thought you're supposed to get the paint pretty hot (without burning it) before rolling.

if my paint chips, i'll just have josh powder coat my entire car.

No one makes that guarantee Marc...no one! You never know how thick or thin the paint is in those areas. All we can do I keep it as warm as we can, roll slowly, and hope for the best. I didn't care about mine because it had a few chips in that area, and I already made the decision to go with it. My car is not perfect/mint like any of yours, so it was not a hard decision.

Again, no promises on the paint cracking...so you boys think long and hard before going with it. I am no professional, and dont claim to be either. I'm only providing the tool to do it with.

Anyone who is worried, I hear LIP Collision rolls fenders for a decent price. Can't be too bad having a body shop do it right?

"Dual-clutch transmission is identical to the version in the Evo X MR, with the exception of the 5th and 6th gear ratios, which are taller to allow more relaxed highway cruising and promote better fuel economy"

"The main difference on the 2009 Ralliart is its turbocharger, which is a smaller, single-scroll unit instead of the twin-scroll turbo in the Evolution X. The Ralliart also has its own intake system, while the exhaust system is similar."

"Dual-clutch gearbox drives all four wheels through Mitsubishi's All Wheel Control (AWC) all-wheel-drive system, and just as on the Evo VIII, IX and X, there are Tarmac, Gravel and Snow modes. The 08+ Ralliart offers the EVO's ASC (Active Stability Control), ACD (Active Center Differential) carried over from the EVO IX, only doesn't include EVO X's AYC (Active Yaw Control). "

LIP can and will do it right! I can vouch for their work. I just sent Mark an email for a quote.
