A majority of you know me. I've owned this car since early 2007. I always said, "I'm taking this car to the grave with me" and fantasized about it being the old car in my garage when I was 70. It's been through a lot, but overall it's been a great car to me. I have a lot of attachment to this car, so it's hard for me to let it go.
This is one of the last Evos in MN I feel like that's never ran E85, I've always done the research on the parts I throw on this car and with the help of Kracka I feel like it's a great setup. I've always wanted to keep the car's spool low and not run more HP than needed for my driving style. This car never saw over 330AWHP and has always been on the stock turbo. It's basically setup for speed density but does not have the tune for it. The power curve is pretty incredible for a stock turbo.

The bad:
The front bumper cover has some chips on it and a little indent, it's probably reparable but I was just going to get a new OEM one, I have a source for around $500
The rear bumper has a few scuffs, again not terrible and definitely reparable, I honestly was going to do a JDM conversion.
The Prosport Oil pressure/temp guages need new senders.
The shifter surround has a few scuffs on it, other than that the interior is pretty damn good.
Needs new tires, it has 255/40R17 NT01s on it right now, I'll replace them sooner than later... when I do the price goes up.
