Oooooh, very good point! I'll have to think about how to respond to that. Perhaps we can get to the bottom of why guys are reluctant to remove it.

He was referring to my 2 statements in quotes in my previous post.

I can agree to that. I would totally fall under that label except you'd have to tweak it to "never owned a manual Mitsu before" because I've had 2 Galants before going to the Evo (both automatics).

And that makes perfect sense. Case and Point: I didn't mod my Evo for almost 2 years. Even after reading up on stuff across forums and going to NTEC meets, I was still reluctant to even mod it but eventually I did. I will say that I was nervous as shit when I first turned the car on after swapping the UICP, FMIC, and Intake. Having never done it before, it takes nerves.

I'd say you're probably spot on with that answer.

You can forget about trying to please Kracka. He points fingers at guys like me that do too many mods as well. Unless you do exactly like Kracka then he's gonna bitch. You don't have a WW Evo so you've already lost.

Blue is my 2nd favorite X color

No offense, but look who's car has been up and running at 100% all summer and who's hasn't. I never said you've modded too much, you've just taken the long, complicated, route when a simpler/cheaper would have net the same results. You probably have the most expensive and complex fuel system for any street X yet you still have fueling issues.

To each their own though, just glad I don't have to constantly dick with my car to keep it on the road and getting me to/from work each day. I bought my car to enjoy it and drive it on a daily basis and I'm doing just that I give advice to the best of my ability but at the end of the day if it's not taken it's really no sweat off my back so mod on fellas and have a good time doing it since that's the whole name of this game

Also, my apologies if it ever seems like I'm mad or getting pissy with anyone; I've been in the DSM/Evo scene for over 10 years and am just very passionate about it. I've done a lot of great mods but also some bad/dumb ones too so I just try and take some of the knowledge I've learned along the way and pass it along to the guys newer on the scene.
