Just added it up and I think i nailed 38 points, here's what i've got:

06 Evo IX - 325 awhp - 9.94 P/W ratio (I think)

Parts with points
9.5'' Eneki's with 255/40/17 NT-01's (rules said you could subtract 7 points being they are 30mm less then the 295 rule)
Robispec KW Clubsports 9k front/10k rear (they do have that "remote" res. attached)
Flashed ECU
Injen Pipe's/filter
Turbo XS intercooler
Perrin TBE w/o cat
Progress 25mm rear sway
Forge MBC

Parts without points
Whiteline tie rod ends
Whiteline rear control arm bushings
PFC front rotors
OEM rear rotors
Raybestos st-43 pads all around
M-1 Harness Bar
Schroth ASM-FE 4 point belt
Shifter base bushings

Did i get it right?

No. I looked it over quickly and first thing i noticed that was wrong i highlighted in bold. The base class for the Evo is TTB, so the base class tire size for the Evo is 265, not 295. Therefore, 255 RA1's would be +4

Im not sure how you added up your points, so it would help if you posted how you assigned your points. Let me give you an example.

+4 255 RA1s
+10 flashed ECU
etc
etc

Without knowing how you went about to add up your points we wont be able to tell you if you added them up correctly.

My bad guys, Here's the breakdown

06 Evo IX - 325 awhp - 9.94 P/W ratio (I think)

Parts with points
255/40/17 NT-01's (265 base - 10mm = -1 + 5 for nt01's = 4 tire points
Robispec KW Clubsports 9k front/10k rear = +7 +2 for springs = +9
Flashed ECU = +10
Injen Pipe's/filter = +1
Turbo XS intercooler = +4
Perrin TBE w/o cat = +5
Progress 25mm rear sway = +2
Forge MBC = +4
255 FP = = +2
= 41 total ..........ARG!!!!

Did i add these up right? Do the parts below also assess points?

Whiteline tie rod ends
Whiteline rear control arm bushings
Beatrush front undertray

Whiteline tie rod ends - not the roll center kit? As long as they are physically the same as stock, 0 points
Whiteline bushings - poly? If so, 0 points.

Is the base class TTB with any **?

None right now. I was confused by how to add points for the different coilovers I could get. Right now I just have upgraded springs; not sure exactly how to count those either.

And we CAN subtract points for < 265 width tires now; right?

I know, i know, the rules are very confusing and tricky at first...im still getting used to them. TBE is +3, its only a +5 if you have headers. Rear trailing arm bushings are a +1. Im pretty sure you have to add points for the undertray. Pretty much anything that you change/add, that isnt a no-points mod, you have to assess points for. Best thing is to contact your TT Director and consult with him.

Yes, that depends on your tire size of your base class. If your base class is TTB your base tire size is 265, so if you run 255's youre allowed to subtract 1 point...and so on.

992 - Ya they are the "roll center correction" kit, which IS just an adjustable tie rod end. So i guess it would add something, if so how much?

Bueller - according this this rule "Note: vehicles with headers and downstream aftermarket exhaust are assessed a total of +4 with a catalytic converter,
and +5 w/o a catalytic converter, regardless of the OEM setup." Since we technically DO have a header, and the rest IS aftermarket, would that be it?

...the regardless is what's making me doubt.

Springs are noted as a +2. Remember, you could always check with your TT director to be certain of everything.

Thanks, I think that puts me near 33 pts - w/o coilovers or camber plates yet. I'll have to double-check.

Since your base class is TTB*, don't forget to add in those 7 points right off the top. Roll center kit I was thinking was +2 (Alteration of Ball joints/Dive Angles), hopefully not relocation of suspension mounting points (+6). I'll ask the National TT director next week for a ruling on that one.

Technically we do NOT have a header, it's an exhaust manifold. So aftermarket turbo-back and no cat - +3 If you installed a tubular header, +2 more.
