I think I'm the only one going to Nationals, for sure the only from the area competing. The car is going under the knife this weekend, and back on the dyno next Thursday.

Greg- Where are the Nats held at? Wouldn't mind seeing the beast run!

On a side note, I think the warranty is about to get compromised on my car (not really, just planning and purchasing for the future). I was out in California for business and was in the area where Megan Racing is. Needless to say, I suckered myself into buying their o2 housing. The one guy I spoke to was very honest about his opinions with respect to his parts and competitors parts. Impressed.

Now, I just need an exhaust to pair up with this o2 housing. Do you guys have a preference? I was thinking Buschur or Megan, leaning towards Buschur.

Nationals will be at Mid Ohio, September 13-16. I would love to see a bunch of Evo support there, especially since there only appears to be two Evo's registered for competition - including mine!

I've been real happy with my Buschur exhaust, it's been pretty much trouble free since I put it on 4 years ago.

OK guys, I need a little help. Nationals is in 9 days, that car is still in pieces, and I need a couple of parts. I'm leaving to get the car tuned Thursday morning, so I'm a little desperate here!

I just need two things:

1st priority - 2-1/2" to 1-3/4" IC coupler. I need at least a 3 ply straight connector.

2nd priority - Clean stock FMIC. Mine has seen better days, all the fins are bent, etc. I need one that came off a car early in life and is in good shape. The car needs as much cooling as possible, as we're gonna be cranking up the boost quite a bit. I also will need this to be loaned to me for a couple of weeks or donated to the cause, as I'm out of cash to get this thing finished.

If anyone can help me out, I would surely appreciate it!! Call me, leave me a message here, email me, PM me, whatever!

Well, I need serious suggestions now.....I'll figure the exhaust stuff out later but someone rear-ended me today on my whole 3/4 mile drive home from work today.

Does anyone have any suggestions of what I should do? Or any experience with accidents?

This really devastates me as its never going to be a "perfect" car as I have kept it. It goes to show you can put every last best bit of effort into keeping something perfect and some A-hole has to come around and screw it up.

Furthermore, does anyone know any good places to go to get the repairs done? Local or not....
