Taking the EVO on 1500mi road trip.
Got her back tuned on 89oct so I am ready for the CA crap 91 and am going to try and push 30mph with some flash tuning.

Will be back on may 21st. So no working on cars this week.

So we will see how a abused 11sec EVO holds up

Will on my 3rd fill up I got her tuned right at 30mpg. I think I can push it to about 32mpg with just a bit more tuning. My NOX emissions probably look real bad right now

Car did awsome geting down here.
