No matter what you do when you drive that fast it's not safe. That's the biggest problem.

Otherwise I would say 99% of the people on this board have driven that fast before on public roads so no one can really judge. I know I have. Hell on my first trip up here from FL when I had my SRT I had times where I was hitting 120-130 on the highway. No one was around and I was trying to make good time. I wouldn't do that now (I do 9 or less over the speed limit almost everywhere I drive including the highway).

But for your own and other's safety.....slow it down man! Plus you do **** like that and you won't have to worry about affording anything for your Evo because insurance payments will rape you!

Heading out of town for a month or so.

But i wanna get rid of all the evo parts I have, and possibly put the car up for sale. I have a Fs thread but just wanted to throw it in here as well.

FP Green(NON HTA), injectors, gauges, exhaust, MR Wheels, wideband..You name it, i might have it.

The car is an 06 EB IX SSL with 57XXX miles.


This is just a feeler. Let me know if you have any questions

Dang luke, sorry to hear. Man..Andre..maybe letting her go!? You need to get a fun setup on that thing with a good tune and you'll never want to sell it. What would you be looking for if you get rid of it?

Don't do it Andre. Get the installs done right and get her tuned and you will only think about how you can get more power. Get rid of it and you will regret it every second of the day.

Cool..I'm waiting on PM's back from several people that are selling their 1.3 cables. I really don't want to buy a $190 cable that may "go bad or be flaky" according to Tactrix. Talk about job security.

I looked yesterday..I'll have to look again. I opened up the obd connector where the circuit board is and went crazy with a meter. The single cable that is for flashing is soldered to the board. I metered from it's plug end (white plug) to the circuit board and it's good. However, if I meter anywhere else on the circuit board it doesn't show continuuity. It's like it's electrical connection ends where it's soldered to the board. I'm going to re-heat it's solder point then recheck on the board to see if maybe it's cracked within the board and I can't see it. I'm just not buying that a usb cable "goes bad". I guess either way..I need a cable now.

The first time I went there was for a dyno day and my numbers were low too. Then when I went back with Bob, when he got tuned, my numbers were higher. 355/345 on dyno day and 394/395 the day Bob was tuned. This was on the same exact tune. Jason gave her a touch up and she left with 415/390.
I think they just put a standard setting instead of for the specific car in order to save time on dyno days.
