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...
I've contacted Mellon already to do a pump/race gas tune this summer.

What kind of market do we have up here for the meets and tuner races? Seems way more secluded then down in the states. Im from Ohio and Buschur meets can pull 200-250 tuners, AK meets would be fun.

Jasper- sucks you sold the car, I wanted to see that ten second pass. But I understand how kids affect things (on my third myself) and how demotivating it is to dump alot of money into your car and have run like ****, if at all lol. I haven't driven my evo since Halloween, the injectors weren't scaled properly it became a real ***** to start in cold weather and I've just been driving my truck with no heat. As for the tune I'm leaning towards English racing since he can do speed density via email tune, however Mellon is great as well. Ive talked with Mellon before and if we had enough people He would fly up to tune.

As for meets, most evos I've seen in one place is four and that was at Quiks house. Always up for a meet though, I'll be at the auto x alot this summer once I get my tune straightened out.

Boost, air fuel, oil pressure (not wideband)
Plan on getting all 3 wideband as soon as I can but for Now what I have works, but I need the pillar pod (gauges are already on the car but wrong pod (although it fits and looks just like what I have on it, I was told it was for a subbie) but I'll look into dash gauges later on, have a little one an another one on the way so I'm lucky to even get those on for now. (maintenance is always done on it though) but mods here and there will come around

So if you read my last post I wrote it all fubar but

AEM wideband for boost and air/fuel

An oil pressure is Megan racing tac needle (would have got a different one but I needed it like right then an there, thought I had no oil pressure and acting funny)

It seems as though something is always wrong with mine lol, but hasn't gave a bunch of crap like the GST did, would fix it drive it down the highway and something else would be broken

Oh, haha blue's are nice on the 9's. Count me out on the 19th, have plans then. You should consider a run to Alyeska, you guys can go boarding and then head to Double Musky, they make a awesome pepper steak

If anyone is interested, may possibly be taking out the buschur double pumper, buschur cams, and Greddy Ti full titanium exhaust if anyone needs them. Only a feeler at this point, but may happen.

What size turbo you planning on running? Not quite sure the br cams work well w/anything below a 35r...also going to need springs and retainers if you do not have them yet.

Where in Eagle River? I haven't seen any other Evos except a TB 9 and a GG 9 MR.

I live in Eaglewood.

not a whole lot of market for tuners...the only tuners that come up here seem to be for the Subarus.

The most Evos I've ever seen together were at the bowling alley October 09.



5 of us.
