a couple light bulbs in the dash, brakes a few times, and plenty of tires lol that's about it. I also did the seals on the TC, transmission, and the PCV valve just as precautions at the last timing belt change. i'm looking to replace my throttle body shaft seals, LICP, and IC pipe couplers, and the seals on my injectors just as some preventative maintenance because those are all the known boost leak points on EVO IX's. I don't know if I'm leaking or not, but the parts are cheap, fairly easy to replace, so why not fix it before it becomes a problem? I'm also thinking about changing out the fuel pump to get a fresh fuel filter in the car, but that's really about it.

well, not actually the fan...sounds like it's coming from one of the belts or the motor moving the belts on the right side of the engine.
