Mark's Evo IX MR Winter Projects

LOL, nice Mark! It has been a while since I have seen or talked to you.

I thought the MR wasn't going to ever see big power? ;)

Now that you have this, another daily Evo, and the blue beast (your DSM), I'm assuming you got rid of my old Red Talon?

Pretty sure the Chang's bought that and parted it.

That would be correct. :)

That would be correct. :)

Damn you! My baby! :)

What became of the shell?

Edit - Also, what did you end up purchasing it for?

~$1500. We ended up scrapping it.

Last post, I don't want to clog up his project thread, but was it in bad shape when you got your hands on it?

When I sold him the car, it was pretty damn clean (garage stored during the winters), and he bought it for 5k...

My heart is a little bit shattered right now, but, it is what it is. :)



Edit - I found his for sale thread for the car, the tranny went boom! No need to respond to me anymore on this thread... I've already clogged it up enough!

How do you intend to utilize the ethanol content sensor with the vs 1 AEM?

The AEM will not be hooked in to the content gauge, it is connected to a visual display showing the percentage of ethanol in the fuel. The main purpose it to be sure the content is high enough for high boost!

It was a great car I think the body almost had 250K miles!

So in doing the 5 speed swap the 6 speed center console needs to be modified to fit the shifter base. Also the boot doesn’t fit properly around the shifter post, so I machined a spacer so that I could use my original shifter and make it look like it came that way from the factory.
