I wonder If Ralliart will release parts when the Evo get's here so that there are factory packages. That would be nice.

Actually, at the LA premier of the EVO, the President was outlining the plans for the Ralliart Aftermarket Program here in the .

Trust me, with the tuner market what it is, and this car having so many possibilities to tune, all that stuff will be coming!

If you have a Japanese bookstore in your area, check out the Auto series of magazines. Cant remember the exact name but they have a thick magazine for each car model.

So the Skylines, Integras, Imprezas, Evos all have their own magazine. THe magazine is really cool as it tells you a lot of information and all the various tuning parts that you can buy. e.g. They have a ton of wheels, all the different exhausts, different intakes etc.
They show a lot of modified Evos and also tell you have to mod them.

If you're getting an Evo, definitely check those magazines out.

it would be a safe bet that ralliart will be able to modify the Evos without voiding waranty. It's a bit dumb for ralliart to come over with these parts if them void warranty.

If RalliArt is a backed aftermarket supplier, these parts and install when done by a authorized dealer, should carry some type of protection/warranty..

TRD (Toyota Racing Development) does, as do others..

Factory backed aftermarket parts are usually more expensive.
You get what you pay for though. Being able to stoll in to the dealer if a part fails is definately worth it. Try that with an aftermarket company in general..it would be more of a hassle more than likely...

Anyone ever price out Mugen stuff? Holy ****!! That stuff is REALLY expensive!!
