Hey jspec

No, I managed to figure it out and fix everything and putting it in underground just for a quick check up and gauge install(don't have an engine lift bay nor room for one) so I figured I would get gauges and a quick inspection done, but i will be dropping by those shops to see if they have anything I might be interested in or are they more of an auto repair shop??

What was your exp. With them and what do they do (other then repairs) for performance cars, will they sale mods and what not,

Oh and jspec, you up for a meet?? If so give me some ideas got a couple but still waiting to put info out,
Don't know how to make this fun an interesting how ever I plan on having a cruise around town and a little further, couple miles but still looking into the route, still want to drive them but can't because I'm out of state right now, but if anyone has a route they like and know that is about 30-40 miles and pretty much a huge circle throw it put and I'll see way up and combine them, mainly highway for now and in anchorage (downtown part)

haha, rocking my tundra and bout to pick up my can-am outlander, can't wait

I'd be down for a meet, i still haven't met bud and qwik. Just has to be a heads up since work and my kid.

Hales is a hks dealer and sells race gas vp109 and c16. EMC just opened up, mainly building honda's but does other rides as well. Who's tuning your ride?

Could always do a seward run, bout a 1.5-2 hour run depending on how you're driving.

I'm in for a meet. Wont be bringing the Evo out till the snow is gone though.

As for a tune, invest in a Tactrix cable and EvoScan to skip the local tuners and get a email tune from Mellon or English Racing.

Jasper sold his Evo? Any left over parts...

Haha, not my fault it got held up for so long. Kid came along so my priorities have changed.

Probably the exhaust out, it was the full titanium Greddy Ti rolled tip. dude is swapping it w/something more toned down. And maybe the buschur cams but their only for the 8's. Can't think of anything else off the top of my head though.

So evan, you going w/mellon right now?
