just what you said. oil changes at 3K and regularly scheduled maintenance on your car.
this would hold true for any FI setup. Take care of your car, you are asking it to do more than it was originally designed for. This means you have to watching a little more and take good care of it and it will take care of you.
High performance does come at some price. I am sure RIPP and RRM would agree that you have to take care of your car once you go on the FI path.

hey ripp or zoo,
I see 222 WHP for the 5spd but what are we looking at for the Auto? If I go RIPP SDS I will definitely upgrade to the RRM's Forged pistons and Bored Throttle Body, so I can boost a bit more. Will prolly need to strengthen my tranny tho
WHY the fak does all this sh*t cost so much $$$ ::sniffle:: ::sniffle::

I know but I was just wondering what the numbers were 
I definitely will get the RIPP SDS to go along with my EVO VII Tech Sport Kit, its just a matter of getting in on the GB or getting it after. $300 extra for the full retail aint that bad. I have the $1000 deposit right now, and will have the other $2600 by June 1st, but I still have to get my Kit painted and installed and that is going to be around $800 (quoted) so things are looking a lil shabby. I need to break out the calculator and do some math and budgeting real quick.

yah install might be the biggest pain, but Ripp includes a 20 + page install... I doubt you can go wrong with that... just have a copule or friends with you (who are good with cars) help you out.... they said it was bolt on ne wayz so that myte help you alot... So instead of paying 1000 + for install its just going to cost you a full weekend of your time, and tahts all

i thought i read somewhere that the AT lancer numbers should be close to the MT lancer numbers, and also that the AT lancer's always are spooling which gives them better 0-60 times and 1/4 mile times.... Correct me if i am wrong
