while I agree that this isn't a bad idea, if the other X would be a 2010+, they will feel totally different.

Some don't remember just how bad that ****ty tune was. Some cars were shutting off at idle, almost all of them couldn't hold a steady idle at all, there were literally cars that were worse than 10.0 afrs at WOT.

That's why everyone came out with an intake back when the X was released and could claim like +40whp. :lol: It would help lean the car out enough that you would see crazy gains. I think all this Evo needs is a tune.

Just like a lot of others, the 08 OE tune is crappy. Test drive a new (11/12) GSR.
Alex said it right too, intake, ic piping, tp/hfc and cbe and a tune and you're set.

Although I'd say get an Evo in any color you like :D ....but mine is WW ^_^

Maybe it just has a bad fuel pump relay that why it feels slow;)
