That really sucks man! What o2 housing housing do you have wes? I was doin a liitle searching on here today since you recommended an o2 housing and i found a thread where buschur tested the BR ebay housing, Invidia housing, and the works housing. The BR ebay housing got the best results but I guess they don't make that particular housing anymore, and they didn't have very good things to say about the other two. They did the test a long time ago tho so i don't really know and i couldn't find anything else

When was the last time you changed your tranny fluid Wes? Mine got notchy really fast, I did my tranny and my tc with every oil change and it was always nice and smooth, but if I let my tranny go longer it would start to get icky... Stupid Mitsubishi.

I have the ebay I don't know about the invidia one, I have invidia down pipe, test pipe & cat back exhaust and love the power & the tone it all makes but again not sure on the o2 housing. Works is probably decent. Have you seen the gsc motorsports one?

It's been awhile maybe thats what it is. Stupid me is always waiting on getting some redline mt-90 because thats what I'm told is best but then spend money elsewhere like moving & this weekends trip to cali. I will try to do it when I get home & do the oil too if I have the cash for it. Cross your fingers for me! It does get better when its all warmed up so maybe it is fluid

Thanks for pointing the GSC out for me i'm a big fan of GSC. I think i'll start with gauges, mbc, test pipe and eventually end up getting a fuel pump, injectors, GSC S2's, and springs and retainers. Man I better start saving

Do you go to school at Wyo-Tech? Does your bro have an evo too? I think you might know a couple of my buddies, Mike and Wyatt(black wrx).

Hey everyone! I found this thread and had to say Hi! I just bought my EVO 8 4 weeks ago. I'm loving every minute behind the wheel. Its a huge upgrade from a Civic! LOL! I'm in Provo. Let me know if there are any events happening. I've got lots of friends in the whole Provo car scene and we all love to change things up.
