You know, I've got a lot more things to take care of on this damn car before I even start putting money into making it faster. Two wheel bearings are bad, one of which is probably a week or so from failing, but I can't afford to fix it, so all I can do is pray it doesn't send me into another car or the wall when it locks up on the highway... And besides that, there's a slowly growing puddle of oil on the cardboard I park over, the source appearing to be where the head meets the block on the front left of the motor, so I've probably got a bad head gasket if not a cracked block now. And to top that off, the new clutch is slipping, because a couple assholes on here told me it was perfectly fine to boost on it during break-in as long as I didn't launch it.
So no, the car's not ready for any more than stock power. Deal with it.
And I've got a question for you, Jake. Where does a kid fresh out of HS get the money for an Evo?
actually i didnt know that, the only thing i remember you saying was that you blew your radiator hose when you looked at emily's facebook.
before you jump to conclusions about your block being cracked why dont you get a new VC gasket and give that a shot, unless your too busy at your high stress, long shift job... ..oh wait.
It were these "ass holes" faults? or was it the kid who DROVE the car?
for the record my car saw boost during break-in, just not in 1st gear or a full pull.
I wasnt fresh out of highschool when i got my Evo, i got it mid Junior year DURING highschool. How did i afford it?
working at innovative audio since 9th grade, and by junior year i was head installer and shop manager, making $500-$800 a week while in school. Thats also what baught me my own 2g DSM, which i paid for, unlike yourself. And around summer of sophmore year i got into a program with a neutraceutical company called Eniva, who now sends me commision checks everymonth for $600-$800 dollars.
hrm.. Looks like I make enough to buy my own things, how much have you made this year spaz? did you pay for your car, clutch, or school? like those of us who make money..
