Maybe you shattered the clutch plate which could explain the loud pop.
Best of luck to you

Not yet, no spaces open, and no time. Looks like this set me back a "little bit", as far as getting the proper tune.

Seriously man.... what's with you breaking ALLL THE TIME?!?!
I don't know of anyone else that seems to have had more problems with their car.
You have a shop like AMS do the work, right? Or who puts it all together?

Kev, just saw your post. Dang, sorry to here about your troubles again. I think it time for an evo IX. When is your wife birhday again Good luck. As for me just got my car back from ams with the 2.3. Did not get the peak power and torque they advertise but the car feel strong all around now. the powerband is amazing and boost hit at 2800. I'm just a little disappointed for the amount money spend but that a different story. The way we keep spending on our car we could have been sitting in a nice new evo IX.

Hey Wayne, I don't know what is with me breaking stuff, it does seem like a cloud over my head, I have 78K miles on the car, 99% of those miles were fun. I don't know what happened here, but should soon. I let the Mitshu dealership put the parts on, I don't trust myself to do that!! I can't get pissed about it, whats done is done, time to look ahead to a new and improved part.

You situation was a weird one. with you trashing the stock crank The stroker motor was just as expensice as a 2.0.....so why not.
Kevin, Sounds like a T-case but its hard to tell this far away. Let me know if there is anything I can help you with.
