Looks sweet! Blue evos are one of my favorites.

Stock ecu as of now only has input triggers, not output triggers. I bet you could wire together a pretty simple circuit that would take voltage from the CAS and speedo and output 5v when both are above a certain voltage pretty easily. I bet shane or my buddy Jordan Price could whip it out w/o too much trouble once you figured out the trigger values you want (get them from the logger).

New ride height looks great, just in time for pot-hole season! :D

Thanks man!

I guess I used the wrong terminology maybe? On the dsmlink I wired it up with a relay, a power switch, and to the FPR on the ecu. DSMLink had the option to set the FPR up so that above a certain RPM, above a certain MPH, above certain throttle position, and below certain knock it would trigger the "output" which if memory serves was a ground. So for example above 5k, above 97% throttle, above 50mph and below 1 count of knock it would complete the circuit. However the solenoids would only have power once the master power switch was manually switched inside the car.

I can figure out the wiring up the solenoids and all that fun stuff no problem. I just don't know how to set up something like the FPR controll in the evo ecu. I bought a 1.3u cable the other day and downloaded EvoScan and ECUFlash so I can log/flash if I really knew what I was doing. I've also spend hours trying to figure out how to set up a switch like the FPR was setup like on DSMLink but the closest thing I found was something with the intercooler sprayer. Any advice or links to reading would be appreciated!

You used the right terminology, and again I'm pretty sure there's only inputs used (to switch maps or read different sensors) and not any outputs available.

How are you liking the new power level with the cams and re-tune?

[C3L1CA]

Ohhh I gotcha, thanks for the input!

I'm really liking the car the more I drive it. It's nice to have a little bit of power and all the nice features that my dsm didn't have. A big part of me misses the raw power of my old car but its nice having a super reliable car.

Went to cars and cafe this morning and all was well. Had a nice clean car and got to do my first real test and compare after leaving. Well on the way home my car started to make a funny noise at a light and then died while driving normally. Pulled over tore off the top timing cover to see a loose timing belt:scared: Then pull the valve cover while waiting for the tow truck to come and see all the exhaust rockers were out of place and pulled the plugs to see some not so good news. Once it was home and I had some lunch I started ripping the head off...

Some pretty intense carnage below, not 100% what happened yet. It has had 3k miles and about 3 weeks since I did the timing belt/cams and it made no strange noise during that time or anything that would make me think something is up. Also checked that the pin can still go into the tensioner after spinning the motor over and letting it sit for 20 minutes multiple times just to be sure. Now I'm kind of SOL

Onto the pictures:wedgie:

Holy shit, how did the valves brake off like that? looks like the belt is still intact. Something most have slipped in the timing.

[93gtpeater]

Wow I can't believe there's that much damage. I hope you find out what caused this to happen.

^x2.
Sorry to hear man.

That car looks so good too.

Holy eff, all 4 cylinders. Sucks a big one dude!
