I dont think you should get the 9 yet. Wait till the evo 10 come out.

maybe im wrong but there were a few threads about switching cams with mivec.. i cant remember off the top of my head but a few posts were saying how you would only need the exhaust side because mivec only effects the intake side of the cam.... i dont know. hate to say it, but try a search cause i know its been brought up before

No, I do believe HKS is currently in the process of engineering some for the IX though.

I read in Autoweek it will be released in early 2007 as a 2007 model, but it did not explicitly state that it would be released in the US at that time.

I would think that you could maybe, possibly, use the exhaust cam as only the intake is MIVEC. I am just guessing.

Your assumption may be right

X should be available in 07. tier 2 emissions come into effect then. I don't beleive the 4g63 will cut it.

it's already been announced that the IX will be the last evo with the 4G63 I believe.
