I am very interested in getting into this as well.:mitsu::mitsu::mitsu:


Yeah you have everything. If you go to the ecuflash section under engine management there are 2 great threads; Merlin's guide on tuning and How to tune an Evo. Both are GREAT guides and will definitely get the ball rolling.

I love it. My wife was surprised when we went out. She thought something went wrong with the car. She said it reminds her of a pissed of horse when the BOV goes off. The turbo does spool better and the car breaths way better. Still hasn't thrown a code or even acted funny. I just drive it as my DD, but when i get on the gas a little, i feel like she is asking for more power. Might have to feed her more upgrades lol. {thumbup}

Very nice. {thumbup}

Awesome! I think it took me more time to get everything setup to log properly in evoscan than it did to learn the basics of tuning lol.

Bought some stock Evo VIII rims so today I will sand and paint them black. Getting them ready for street slicks.

Had a busy day! Changed oil, rotated tires, changed serpentine belt, rear diff fluid, brake pads, and spark plugs. After that was all said and done I washed, waxed it, and vacuumed it out.

Sounds like a fun day! lol I just detailed the interior because it's supposed to rain tomorrow. Wash and waxing it on Wednesday.

Then on Saturday, putting in a rebuilt tcase, fluids, front axles, ckp sensor, serpentine belt, front passenger brake line, and new fluids.... Gonna be a busy day! lol :mitsu:

Looking for average price to get the threads helicoiled and might as well do a small valve job or build on the head. What is average cost?
