Nice meeting you too! How long did you stick around? I left when they were trying to dyno the black civic and the two step limiter kept activating. Nice numbers for you also; must be a blast to drive.

I think I'm going to need a new clutch now because I felt it slipping last night. Its a stock cluch with 32,000 miles and I don't think its going to handle the power I'm getting on E85. Anyone have recommendations for a replacement clutch and where to get it installed? I'm thinking about an Exedy Twin HD.

Hey guys, I wanted to see where all of you are getting tuned at. I didn't read thru the 20+ pages due to time constraints, Ill be back from Iraq in June and will be putting on my parts that I've been collecting. Any good Tuning spots in Houston Preferably on the North side.

I've seen a black 2010 Evo X with the tall spoiler at the Sugar Land post office, a blue Evo X with the tall spoiler on highway 6 and first colony blvd. going towards hwy 90 about 2 weeks ago. (Both stock)

Also, this morning at about 8:45 I saw a white Evo IX with what looked to be a black or cf front lip and dark colored wheels going down hwy 59 north near the hwy59/bw8 intersection.

EDIT: Also saw a white Evo 8 or 9 with a black vortex generator and wingless (maybe an RS) in the shopping center at the exit of 59 north and kirby last friday about 6pm.

All nice cars!
