Thanks guys, I appreciate the compliments. I'm really happy with how far the Evo has come, tune date is set for a couple weeks from Friday so I'll finally be driving it soon

Juanmedina, Origin Fabrication is just north of Atlanta. Their craftmanship is better than really anything I've ever seen. They are a small shop but you can find them on Instagram @originfabrication or email them at sales@origin-ti.com to inquire about parts.

I suppose it's also worth mentioning I finally got my Center Caps in...I always wondered why caps were so expensive but when you hold one of the Advan ones in your hand you can see why. They're really nice for something you stuff in the center of your wheel and hope doesn't fall off lol

My Origin Fab battery box was also finished up. Nice, simple and secure like I wanted. The top isn't shown.

Update, car was tuned by Doug of DBW Motorsports on his mustang dyno and made 402/355 @ 24psi using Pump 93. We were both really happy with the numbers considering the boost and the use of pump gas. This thing hauls now!

Lol ain't that the truth. I'm just glad I got it before the previous owner(s) poor decisions and practices really consumed the car. It's running great now!

But I don't know where to find another $500 LOL.

Do they sell those downpipes? If so, is it possible to get a standard flange for the cat/test pipe?

Sell something!! The Advans are coming off in a week or so and will be clean and ready for you

Origin told me if they were to make another it would be in the $800 range, if you're interested I can let them know!

Been watching this thread for a while, the progress is amazing. Very good taste and high quality parts.

Looking to get my Evo tuned by Doug as well soon. How far is your powdercoater from Dunwoody?

Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it! I would definitely recommend Doug, he may be difficult to get ahold of sometimes to make an appointment but he's a fantastic tuner. My powdercoater is Kickass Powdercoating, he's in Acworth so it should be about 30 mins from Dunwoody. You can look him up on Facebook to get his contact info.

Also, I see your 8 occasionally driving through the city, it looks so good with those Mag Blue TEs man....I'm not usually one for big meets or anything but if you ever want to meet up sometime shoot me a PM, it's always good to know another CT9A Evo around here
