i can certainly help you out with deciding what to go with, and any installation or tuning you may need

300 miles left on your warranty?
Do you need to replace your brake calipers because of discoloration or peeling of the clear coat?
Is your wing's resin/clear coat still deep, or starting to haze? You may need to look at a new one to be reminded how great it use to look.

Welcome to the addictive world of mods!!! Hopefully you can come to some of the meets to see some of the most common ones out there.

Get a simple bolt on first, turbo back, intake and get it re-flash through Kevind. His the best when it comes to that..

yea i would deffinately say do alot of research on different ways people have modded their cars then ask yourself what you want out of your car, do you want as much power for the best dollar, do you want to invest the money to have an excellent complete setup that offers a usable power band that is great in the everyday world, or do you mod in a way that is more on the show side and less on the go side?

you know on my first evo i had a great complete setup with an excellent usable power that on a daily driven basis was awsome. it wasnt the most powerful but it really had power all over the rev range.

on my second evo i had the most popular mods, tbe, cams, intake, mbc, and a real agressive flash. the power was awsome but i sacrificed some low end power that i acttually missed some times. i got trapped in the group that wanted to make as much power as possible with the mods i had.

and ive seen some guys throw 5k some more on alot of show which if your into that thats great but since i am now on my 3rd evo i now know i like to have the complete set up that will offer a broad usable power band that will be great in the everyday driving world, no matter where you are.

well thats just my two cents.
