Woohoo! Glad you got it running man, now get it on the dyno and let it be all it can be :D Talk about a freaking maxed out stock turbo setup on pump gas, this thing should kick ass.

Definitely a successful project! Car feels good and has a nice fat powerband; a great street/autocross setup.

... Also without Mark's tensioner tool my car would have probably blown up, so thanks for letting me borrow that too man!
Actually, I'm pretty sure that's my tensioner tool, and I've been wondering where that's been. Haha It's all good though, not like I need it. Congrats on getting it all up and running again!

Yeah it's really really hard to not drive it, I put about 350 miles on this weekend! The powerband is AMAZING I effin' love the car!

Haha, I'm not sure if it's your tool Kevin, I think Mark made it, he said something about making it at his job. I have no clue, all I know is it did the job!

Been a while since I've updated this thread as I've just been enjoying the car's awesomeness for the past year.

But in the upcoming months I'll be figuring out the broken tranny situation. I was going to have MAP store it and work on it, but they didn't have room and Shep doesn't do 6 speed fixes so for now it's sitting in my garage :(

I'm tossing around a lot of options right now, but http://teamrip.com/ seems to be a good option for rebuilding my tranny, I'm also thinking about pulling it myself but may pay MAP or someone to do it still. I know it's a PITA but there's noway it's any worse than what I just endured.

Any ideas/options people have would be great. A 5 speed swap would be sweet too, but that's looking like it'll cost a LOT more and be a lot more of a PITA than just rebuilding the 6 speed to be strong.

You know my vote; keep the 6!

I thought shep was only a few months out on the new 6-speed gearset/ final drive?

Pull the tranny yourself and save money! I know you can do it!

It is rather easy to pull an evo tranny, now that I've done it once on my IX, once on scheides X, an about to be a second time on my IX this winter. Just make sure you have a slide hammer to pull the input shaft once you pull the driver side axle and after that its like 9 bolts. If you want help I'm down :D
