this is the best way to launch because u build boost off the line.

all evos do not come with one, the 03's don't, not sure about the 04's but i belive they do have one

important things with the 2-step
Car can not be moving at all
clutch must be in
you must be a wot

If you take it to the dealership with out flashing it back(and that isn't for sure), The nice thing about getting tuned my Luke or Aaron is im always here, and can flash you back to stock anytime and or any reason

warranty's on evos really just depend on how the dealership is feeling that day

haha yeah dude. slipping it you're going to burn the hell out of the clutch. so dumping would be better.

haha sorry for the bad info. maybe i should do somemore research on that. i'm only good with IX's haha suck at giving info about VIII's. SORRY!!

idk if the owner before me flashed it. i don't think he did cause he seemed pretty old and didn't look like he was into tuners.

your sig says your are tuned by someone, i would think that would mean your car is flashed


unless i am missing something
