Evo X upgrades

Thats a lot of juice lol.

It does kinda suck, really. I know I'll max out the injectors and pump if I don't upgrade but the only step up is to double-down. I might as well get that last 10% though.

After adding it all up the other day I'm having some regrets about the outlay. It's so close to where I want it now that I'm inclined to see it through. The dent in my savings is epic.

Full Blown just starting making the Evo X hangers so I haven't been able to pick it up yet. They think they'll have them back from being anodized either today or tomorrow.

Once you get the car all together, just make sure you take the time to really enjoy it and as little time as possible thinking about the $$ spent. It's easy to get into a downward spiral and consider just parting it out or selling it or whatever, especially if something goes wrong. Remember, this whole project is dedicated to putting a huge smile on your face! You only live once so if you can do it, go for it!

Yeah man, this summer will be all about learning to drive. I'm thinking I'll do at least one day at the Jim Russell school. They teach you to push the limits on a mostly stock Evo X. I'd rather do it on their car before I see if my suspension is set up right. haha.

Care package from Boomba and Buschur arrived. I'm planning to polish the valve cover later on so hopefully the black cap looks good.

It's amazing how light these rims feel without tires on them.

Should have gone with a lower offset. ;)

Most X owners go with 22 offset and run 265/35's. Hopefully these don't cause me any grief.
