I wish I didn't have to dd the spyder in winter but I don't have another car unfortunately. Say, evotuner, looking at your pics your place seems very familiar. Do you happen to live in Jacob heights on mnsu campus? I went there last year.
No, I live about 15 mins east of Mankato in Madison Lake, those pics of the Evo on the trailer are in Falls Church Virgina lol

Oh I see, my grandparents live on Madison lake. Cool area, pretty good lake for fishing walleye too. I was just wondering because the garage and driveway looked identical to my old place. Love the car btw, great build!

The two evo strategy is awesome too.

I also have a few things ordered to clean the car up a bit and whatnot
- ETS UICP/ OEM BOV
- New OEM RS floor mats
- Fender Liner
- Front license plate (LOL)
- Repaint lip on front bumper
- Removing tint
- Clean injectors and maybe new Walbro 255 (its getting old)

There will be a few more things before the racing season gets under way like possibly new brake pads and lines. For sure new fluid.

So you have a track evo and a street bruiser/drag evO?
Hawt damn, living in mankato must be good.
Serious note, Did they make a SE in WW?

I'm a happy guy today, it felt good to get this one running and tuned properly. Ron did his thing as always and so did the entire crew. We had an annoying squeaking coming from the serpentine area and I thought it was a tensioner or pulley but ended up being a bad belt. After a quick repair with a new belt it was off to tuning. About 2 hours of Ron's magic it was making 413/415 @31psi. We backed it down to 396/404 @30psi because the clutch started slipping. Moral of story: STS is the way to go on Evo IX's. :)
