it might be Jake, does it have wide fenders? if so, its Jake. he's a cool guy. he got here awhile ago but deployed shortly after. he used to come out to the old Target meets... I mean gatherings. I think he's putting it in storage or something like that for some reason.

Hey Monkey I was looking at the Mishimoto intercooler and the ETS one theres not that much difference in core size other than you can get them larger if you want from ETS. Heard anything good about the Mishimoto?

There radiator are ok, but the FMIC is garbage, just get an ETS core and you will be happy. Plus ETS_Michael gives you a military discount.

Sup guys! Just wanted to give Joe from auto*** a shoutout for some awsome service at a price to low to advertise online...lol I left the car with him for a clutch install, and it was done before I knew it. He even got my flywheel resurfaced on a Sat..those that have tried to know no one in killeen will do it for some stupid reason. He even went the extra mile to try and jimmy rig a broke air filter I had. There were a few other things he took care of that to me was above and beyond customer service I had expected. Hands down Im completly happy with his work! Although im in break in mode, the clutch feels awsome and I know was done right the first time. Ill definitly be calling him to install my BBK, FMIC and O2 pipe next month sometime. Give him a call, Im sure you wont be disappointed!
Thanks Joe!!
Now back to your scheduled programming

And dont for get the Nicei 3.7 FMIC, can be had for the same price as the ETS 3.5 and if you research the threads many will say is one of the better FMIC even rivialling those of CBRD.

Thanks for the offer bro, but I didnt take it to Auto*** I took it to Joe who just happens to work there. Yea it would have been free with us doing the work, but along with free the chance for mistakes. Id rather pay below most shops would have charged to have a mitsu tech do it in at least half the time it would have taken us, including beer pauses, cuts and bruise whining, stuck bolts and lights breaking in the head all over ur brand new cams....opps scratch that last one, just had a flashback from when me and monkey did the cams...lol Remeber that one Monkey hahaha

Yeah I remember when YOU broke the light not me. Lol. I do miss the days the ex-gr would be cooking for us while we would work on the cars.

Now if only you would leave your tricycle alone and get back in the Evo. You would know what going fast is......
