My evo was a virgin, until I got it... but it is still basically stock. Just a lil tune tune action but still stock boost.

I'll keep the car the way it is for now. If I need to go into the stealer for warranty work I'll take my chance. Thanks for the replies.

Ask any dealer to reset your ecu. The only thing that doesnt reset is the miles.

I used to work on the dealership and they will do a lot more stuff for the car that you bought from them than any other car.
