It still works though, but it's such a headache. Everyday now it does it intermittently. We replaced the master cylinder, slave cylinder, bled the lines, mike checked out the TOB, etc. all to no avail. So I bought a new clutch. I figured I was paying for another install, so I might as well buy a brand new product. We'll find out what's wrong, hopefully Thursday. I'm not upset at installers or a product defect, I just want my car working! Whatever we find, I'll take the proper steps to get it corrected through ACT or Shep or whomever. I could not have any down time though, so this was the best route. I don't blame anyone or anything, but I will have my vengence!

Nobody will care if you run in a class with illegal mods until you start beating everyone. And let me tell you from experience. Beating alot of these guys will take alot more then some illegal mods to gain you alittle HP. We have a extremely fast region around here. There are a few National champions, and a few 2-5 place national guys.

Now don't get me wrong, the evo's can do very well around here. And alot of you guys will do great. I think Colin is in the best position. If i were in his boots i'd just put on a set of hoosiers. (new or used) and be able to compete in a tuff class with a few good drivers. AS is great and nodody has ever seen a stock evo perform in it. I think it would do pretty well.

Not taking anything away from Colin here as his driving was awesome - extremely smooth and great lines - but I almost wish I had his stock power levels. The only time the power benefits you is off the line and in the straighter sections, which are very few. If you don't have traction, you don't have shizzat.

Looks like its back to looking at wheel/tire mods. Need to pick up some lightweight 18's and looking at the Falken RT-615s in 245/40/18. I know they aren't the best, but they aren't bad and they are relatively affordable.
