Clutch install people have your keys copied?
What if he has a standalone ECU? Does anybody know if that eliminates the anti theft key feature?

Glad you got your ride back...hope they didn't mess up the engine or tranny.

I'd rather someone come knock on my door and says, "Hey, I was going to steal your car, but all I want is your radio, could you unlock it for me?"

"Sure, let me go grab my gun...I mean, keys."

Yeah, I wouldn't own a EVO if I didn't have a garage. I've always have had a garage since my Civic w/ GSR S/C. Kids will jack anything cool. A second benifit of a garage is that mother fu**ers can't even find where you live, unless someone tell them exactly where it is, follows you home or uses the internet to find you (always have an unlisted number, etc.)


Anyways glad you got your car back

Yes,AEM EMS= pop the Ign and drive off using a screwdriver,just like in the movies,
No more anti-theft feature with AEM.
Stock ECU= someone had a key made,and programed it to your ecu while having clutch installed.You cannot,and I repeat cannot get the car running with factory ecu/antitheft system unless you have a key that is programmed to your car,unless they were Pro's,then different story,but they wouldn't have taken just your head unit,you would have never seen your car again

thanks guys,

well i'm the dumbass that accidentally grabbed my spare keys and left them in the car, so i guess they went to steal my deck and saw that my keys were in there and took it for a ride, the car was found about 15 miles away from my house, i checked the mileage they didn't get very far, and the meth was still over half full

all in all everything turned better then it could have, the cover for the ac controls and deck was broken, the driver side window was broken, and they cut a big *** hole in the driverside door panel trying to get the door speakers out but i guess when they realized i had stock speakers they gave up on that idea.

so if any one has ac cover and knobs and a driverside door panel they want to sell, shoot me a pm
