I noticed in one of the replies that there is another black x in independence , which I wasnt aware of. I honestly havent even seen another x since I got mine a couple months ago. To be totally honest, the car is actually my wifes but I am usually at the wheel from friday to sunday. My jetta diesel is a lot more economical for my 62 mile round trip to work.
alright im going out on a limb here but i see a black evo x mr all the time on buttermilk pike always going the opposite direction i am. are you that guy?

The old exhaust fit just fine with the stock US bumper. I just wanted a bit quieter exhaust to satisfy my wife, thus I got a COBB.

Anyone ever been to SlowMotion in Columbus? They don't specialize in Evos, but they do claim to have tuned at least 6 Xs or so. I was thinking about heading up there instead of making the trek all the way up to Buschur. AMS isn't using ECUFlash on the Xs yet, so I don't want to head out there.

If anyone is thinking about doing HPDE4/TT with NASA, or any Time Attack stuff, I am selling my AMB transponder. Shoot me a PM if you're interested. I've also got a brand new fiberglass (frp) Evo 9 front bumper that only has been test fitted once, $100 ($275 new?). Get this thing out of my basement please.

does anyone by any chance have a set of jun 272 cams for an VIII in the region that they want to get rid of? i had an unfortunate incident with a snapped valve spring a couple of weeks ago and figure while the head is off i might as well go crazy with it lol

Not me. Im on buttermillk a lot but my evo is a GSR. Its the phantom black that the dealership told me "only comes on the MR" but since they sold me a phantom black GSR, that sounded like a load of garbage to me. I havent actually seen another PB GSR but Im assuming they are as common as the other x's.
