Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

The final mod I'm waiting on is PSI-based boost control. I know it's functional on the 2008, but not 2010 yet for some reason.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

The only other one I really want is NLTS, otherwise I am all good on my Tephra mods. 9 alt maps and living tuner will be cool too, but not necessary for me :)

Glad you finally get this stuff on Cobb though so now you get the full experience.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Oh right, NLTS too, I forgot about that :) At this point I've almost given up on it happening.

Pretty crappy pic, but I got a new toy for the car :)

I picked it up from a 2008 Evo X and so far I'm really liking it! I'm in the process of getting all my CD's loaded into the internal 30GB HDD. I purchased a maps update disc from the dealership (2011, most current available) but it looks like the previous owner had already updated it to a 2010 map pack so I'm not going to bother updating for now since 1 year isn't worth $190 ($175+tax). Overall, it was a very simple plug & play installation; Sirius and Bluetooth worked right off the bat without needing any type of programming.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

very nice! the 30gb hdd is cool, wish i had one in my car haha.

Are you going to mod it so you can watch movies?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Probably, I just need to figure out how :D

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

That is pimp.
There is no way it could be retro'd into a 8 or 9?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

I suppose anything is possible, but it would probably be a whole lot easier just going with an aftermarket setup in the 8/9. I just wanted everything to be completely plug & play, retain all steering wheel audio and Bluetooth control buttons, and keep the factory Bluetooth mic rather than having to add an aftermarket one which is why I stuck to factory. Plus, the factory dash bezel is much nicer looking (and better fitting) than the aftermarket install kits are.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Its pretty easy to do, somewhere I still have the hack on a CD. Kinda wish the hack was allowed the AUX video input as well, but the hack isn't configured for aux input. Doah!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Yeah i thought about that after i hit post.
P&P is awesome, great mod. That is cool that they offer all the controls still so that you are able to do this. EVO X looks more appealing everyday i swear.

Do people race these as much as the 8/9? Do they turn as good?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

They turn better.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Indeed they do. My X is quite a bit more nimble feeling than my IX was.
It really is a fantastic car; I love daily-driving it and am very happy with it even after 2 years of ownership. There are quite a few guys out there that track them on a regular basis (road course, auto-x, drag, etc.).

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Have the link with the instructions and download for this hack? Mine has been updated to 2010 maps which I assume also updates the firmware, any compatibility issues regarding updated firmwares and this hack that you're aware of?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!

Check to see what version of the firmware you have this is most important to getting the hack to work. On the MMCS hold down set + navi for 5 seconds till the service mode appears, then select version information it should be in the top right corner of the first page.

Also you can add a larger hard-drive and customize the screens from here:

Lastly the best parts of the MMCS, is the lap timer, customization's for the wipers/turn signals/alarm system/lighting, and service reminders. Keeps track of all the fluid changes, tires rotations, etc.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

The 8 and 9s had this option everywhere else in the world, along with electronic HVAC/climate control and power folding mirrors. Mitsu just gave us the shitty stripped-down Lancer interior.

The problem is that you'd need to swap the dash and interior harness to fit it, and finding a wrecked Evo from another LHD country (Russia, Germany, etc) is probably pretty difficult.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

From what the guys are saying above ol spaz. Sounds like I need to ride in a few more X's been looking at 9s, but the price is too much for a 6, almost 7 year old car. Plus that head flow on teh Xs = :sex2:

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Clean used IX's are holding value incredibly well, you can get a used '08 X for barely more and is what I would personally recommend, especially if you intend to daily-drive it. The 2010+'s have a few refinements each year over the '08, but the market reflects that in the used values. One cool thing about the '08's is a fairly large number of them were delivered to dealerships "fully loaded" with navi, aero, and the sport interior package.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

These are some cool hacks, thanks!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Wow, that looks awesome in comparison to the old setup (I had to look at page 1 for reference). Nicely done, stock plug and play upgrades like this FTW.
