Ray,
I got the Progress Group bar which includes new mounting brackets. It's a solid 25mm bar and from what I've heard It's one of the stiffest you can get, along with the Road Race Engineering unit. I'll probally set it for soft right now. Some people crank them fully tight so when they drive 25 mph around a 90 degree corner they can drift. I'm not down with that, because the 90 mph sweepers get real loose with a car set-up like that.
I think the alignment went well? I had my friends take the car down to the shop, and when I talked to the guy he said there were no problems.
A little toe in at the rear, zero toe at the front (it did infact have some toe out when I sent it in) -1.5 camber all the way around.

Yeah, I've read those two are the best, and as for the in-car changing stuff...I'd rather not be the one playing around with my boost, I think the under the hood one's would do fine, how hard is it to set them to the right boost?

I have a virtually new turbo-xs Pro MBC for sale at the moment. Retails for $135 I'd sell it for $80. Here is a link to there website. It is the boost controller on the bottom

Rob, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna end up taking that offer, which will also push me furthur away from the amount I need for the tune...but I have decided that it's definitly a neccisary part to achieve the maximum power out of everything...ever get boost up to 20.5 and a giant taper down to 16? it feels really creepy...anyway, gimme a bit to think about it Rob, but if I get one, I'll definitly get that one from you, Hallmans are like 86 and the Perrins are like 70, but I've heard of the 3 the TXS is the best, followed very closely by the Hallman's...I really need a job, lol

the Halman pro-x (?) with the ceramic ball is supposedly the best as far as holding steady boost. I just wanted the incab adjustment, so that's why I bought one. The turbo-xs pro is deadly accurate, but at the same time will always blead off 1lb if you have the bleader cracked. Just let me know. I'll be at Ray's shop on sun.
Ray there was a wrecked evo at a salvage yard here in ogden, it was silver, let me do some digging and see if they decided to part it out or sale it whole. I know the passenger side skirt wasn't damaged
