Clix,

Regarding compressing the piston, you do not need any tools to do it. Simply take the old pad and put it against the piston then press it and the piston will go back in its place so it will not hit the pad when closing. I changed my pads with the directions on the how to forum and it was very easy to do, required only a socket wrench and a 14mm socket.

BTW, Very Nice looking Lancer.

Justin

Dang its been awhile.. lol
Ayt velocity stacked evo tb installed:

What I did is I bought some tiny crimp-on connectors and plugged it into the evo tps connector. Then I spliced the other end to the lancer harness. Hey it works lol













Things I learned from the install:

Make sure the vacuum hoses are super tight or else you'll have some vac leaks.
Switch the lancer IAC to be safe. (unless you're sure the evo IAC is working)
Last but not least, buy an evo tb with the TPS harness! lol

Things I NEED to watch for:
When I got the the evo tb, the tps is sensor is broken into pieces. I superglued and its working awesome.. for now.
The wires that I spliced..
