Well, the guy in Socal who tuned my car put it plainly: you drive on the road daily, not on the dyno. Hence, tuning my car using real world applications only makes sense. Besides, it he charged me a third less than others that have to pay for a dyno, shop rent, etc... This guy was a genius too; he's a professor @ UCLA who part of the SCCA Circuit. He Races on the weekends and when he's not teaching. He also owns a Evo VIII and a Nissan SE-R race car. Therefore, I know he's not tuning for the $$$; he's tuning because he was tired of other tuners ripping customers off and not being able to produce a good/safe tune for them.
Just realized the slowest ET is 11.72 and the slowest mph is 118 on the fastest stock turbo list...I'm gonna need to step it up on Sunday...finally get my *** on that list...represent for NC...
Hi guys, name is Jeff; new member to this forum... Got an 08 Evo X Octane Blue Pearl... Just moved from Socal to work here in Chapel Hill... Familiar with Socalevo.net.
Just wanted to introduce myself and say wassup to fellow Evo owners. I live in Hillsborough so I hope there are some local meets.

^^I have a feeling Bobby's asking because you won't be able to tune the car w/out a wideband and we normally use the dyno's wideband.
So is leaving from Brier Creek at 11:30 on Sunday ok with everyone? We can just meet up in the parking lot in front of Target that's normally empty.

Congrats! It's black...correct? That will be just like the one I had
I actually worked for Mitsu's ad agency in 2002-2005. So, I've been to their headquarters more times than I can remember. Made it to MOD every year too. Had some good times. Actually worked on the team that launched the Evo VIII here in the US 
I don't know. Sales always seemed slow with this car...even with all the discounts. I think Leith hasn't had one because they sold their last one and didn't order any more and there wasn't a 2009 model created.
