I think I now rate a fail crew member slot, my car has 6993 miles on her, and i was leaving the dealership yesterday, took a right turn on to western, while shifting from first to second, it sounded like something jumped up from under the car and bounced around or like a missile hit the motor and......BOOOOMMM!!!!!!!!!! block pieces and oil everywhere! I was able to cruise right into the mall parking lot, and had the wife come get me and i went got all the the stockies and tools and got her back to stock form in about three hours. dropped her off at dealership, just playin the waiting game now. post pics later.

Dayum Luke, hopefully they cover that under a warranty. I would play absolutely dumb when they ask any questions. If they say..Hey..wasn't this the car with the intake and stuff...deny everything!! They will void your warranty so fast if they know that.
stock_evoIX..just so you know the ets licp will work on any evo with the stock "location" turbo, so weather it's an evo 8 or 9, MR or not, it will fit.

holy *****!!!! Dude, check out that catch can! Full of oil! Can you see where the hole is in the block? I'm betting it's a rod failure. Oh boy...everyone keep their fingers crossed they cover it for him!
If not, we'll do a fail-ville (read Jacksonville) car wash to raise funds! hahahaha
