Was finally able to get the car on the dyno tonight. Kevin at EvoD took care of me. My dirty self tune was making about 330/329. New tune made this at slightly less boost.

So, getting the car professionally tuned really made me fall in love with the Evo again. I have some things I'm going to try to do this summer for a little maintenance and some extra power. I have a couple projects I'm going to try to finish up in a big push after my vacation.
I also picked up a little project to work on over maybe the next year.
My 8yo had a blast helping me tear it down. I'll be taking it to my machine shop in the next couple of weeks to have him check it out and make sure the block is good to move forward with. The crank is really rough. While it didn't spin a bearing I think it's going to need a regrind and to be nitrided. Depending on the cost, I may just buy a new piece. Should make some nice torque, though.
