What up peeps?!

What's up guys? Just thought I'd make an official hello post. Here's my evo.
05 Ssl with hks 272s, 20g compressor, Ams 3.5 Fmic, straight 3" pipes except for a resonator at the tip. Bilstein struts with swift sport springs.. And ugly stock *** wheels... And a dope af duck bill.
Going in a few months to have Carlos Sanchez work some magic on it in the way of some E85 and 30psi.

Thanks! Tho she's not exactly new to me, had her for almost a year and put near 30k miles on the odometer. Only issue so far was the wastegate diaphragm went bye-bye. Was fun finding that out. Luckily nothing is permanently damaged.
Excited to see what power it'll make with my setup on E85.

Welcome to the game, man and congrats on such a great purchase! A lot of good info here regarding mods in case you are thinking of doing any. Check out some of the garages and you may get some ideas. Keep us updated on progress!

I actually didn't buy it, I had a bmw wagon I 6 sp Swapped and put on a rear mount turbo. Got bored with it and traded for the evo. Had it for a little over a year now.

Been one of the lead contributors in this fitment thread if you have questions about offset & the fender work needed

Post up a question here, if you like. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...l#post11801150

Oh yeah, not the same thread, but you were in the right section.

A lot of things to consider!

Let me know if you come up w/another wheel / tire idea
