daymn, EVO 9 now huh? what happened to EVO 8??
either way, nice car to move onto from your previous
you going to do some off roading in that? if not i;d suggest you slam it.
lol, yah i noticed you need a little help in that department lolPANGES said:
well if you ever come to the central valley, LMK
or if i ever go to the bay again (was just in SF this past sunday) i'll let you know
so whats gonna be ur first mod on that bad boy? nice set of coilovers?
yeah, i've been hanging out on the evo forums for about a month or two now... Freaky thing about the IX's is that with just a turbo back, fuel pump, boost controoler, and a tune, they're breaking into high 11's. Does'nt even make sense that cars should be doing that with so little mods. They're going from like 230 awhp stock to like 320 with just those and running those times. That's what swayed me into getting one.DXpowR said:Niiiiiice.I LOVE that color... i wanna paint my car that color.There was one of those out at the illegals this past weekend, same color and everything. It beat a low 12 sec evo 8. Congrats on the evo.
yep ix's are no joke. Ive seen a few slips of 11.9x with just those mods...crazy when you think about it. I love the ix's...makes me wish I would of waited another year before getting the wrx. Oh well...more reason to upgrade the turbo.
What model did you get? MR? RS?
What model did you get? MR? RS?
wow that is impressive... i would drive a turd if it did that.... why is this not true for the evo 8? What are the differences that cause it to respond so well to those few mods?PANGES said:
Turbo back exhaust, sorry. Basically it's a 3" downpipe, 3" high flow cat or test pipe, and a 3" back exhaust... pretty much what it consists of. All that, including the tune, fuel pump, and boost controller will cost you about $1500. Some guy from Buschur is selling the exact package for 1300 i think... not too much to spend considering it'll put you in the 11 sec 1/4 mile range. That's about how much you'll spend on a decent set of coiloversSeanJohn1802 said:
odd thing is, i dont know. I believe it's the larger hot side on the turbo and the Mivec head on the 9's. The 8's I believe have a smaller turbo and no Mivec. They just dont respond as well. i dont know why.all go no show said:
It's a GSR... I was origionally going to get the RS, but I decided against it due to the lack of ABS. I put down a 13k downpayment (all the money from parting out my 240sx and some money i've saved up) and now I'm paying like 430/month for payments... it's brutal... I HOPE this is worth it.BoxinEJ20 said:
Nice pick up Panges
hearing that makes me feel somewhat better...my payments are over a 100 less with only 6k downPANGES said:
Probably in 2 years ill trade the ol wrx in. Rumor on the wrx forums is h6 3.0 twin turbo sti...and if it doesnt happen im probably going to be turnin to the dark side with a evo x
lol. yeah. I dont know if I'm going to like the X though. Or the new STI. Are they still keeping the alluminum block? I was thinking about buying a used 04/05 STI, but was turned away by the aluminum block and their lack of response to mods. I dont mind the payments too much, I can afford the payments AND still be able to do stuff that I want to do.. so it's not holding me back too much, it's just mods will come slower than when i had my 240. Payments are a pain, but it's better than getting help from Mommy and DaddyBoxinEJ20 said:
