As far as the wing goes I got it off another member here. An Evo owner if I have to add. Yeah, its either a hit or miss as far as the spoiler goes. Some like it, some don't. Thanks for the comments though!

Well, the FMIC is a little strange. It looks like that because it is really a side mount intercooler thats bolted up in the front. When I come across some extra funds I'll probly go with an actual front mount but that means I also have to get new piping. So thats why I have to wait for more funds. But when I get the RMR lip that will probly also make me get a front mount.

Well, its a little different. With the turbo I have, it spools at about 2.3-2.4K So if I don't wanna hit boost I have to putt around like a grandma. But other than that its cool. The auto tranny can hold at least 230+ I know, and I'm not pushing that much soo...you be the judge. It all depends on the power you want.
But I will say this though. If you have the funds and can get a nice kit cheap and plan on keeping your Lancer around DO IT! You open up sooo many other options with boost (problems too but thats a different topic). In less than a year my car will be paid off and its a pretty reliable car so I've decided to keep it unless some dealer gives me out of this world trade in value which we all know will NOT happen.

Have you had any problems with the car shutting down or anything? I remember my lancer would shut down sometimes when i would make a really slow turn. Has it been tuned?

Havent gotten it dynoed yet but there is a reason for that...
And the reason is I'm only running a Vortech FMU so I really can't tune it. Later when I get some extra cash flow I'll get a RRM piggy version 1 theen get it dynoed while they are tuning it. I'm not gonna dish out all that cash just so they can strap it up and see how much I put down.

i know what you mean. i had a problem with that the first 3k miles of my turbo kit. im assuming the car was getting used to the ecu. rrm recommended not to drive it too hard. this happened to me when i hit a U turn and my car shut off 5 secs i started my car at the pump.

No, no shut offs really or anything too major. The only thing I can say is simular is after a drive and I put it in park sometimes it would die. But I think that is because of the idle I believe. You know...the whole lumpy idle thing?
