My Evo is starting to look good. Spent most of the day cleaning the car and tearing out all the previous owners stuff. I really need some coilovers though lol
I'm still stock height.

I installed a Evo x bov today. It's running alittle better not that sloppy anymore. Just needs some minor tweaks. But I still need to see the maps and how it's running.

I just installed a set of Fortune Auto 500 series on mine, they are pretty good.. i had BCs prior, it lasted 5 years then the top ball mount started breaking up...still pretty decent though for their price.

I have a Greedy ebc and tt if you need one. I would definitly change all the fluids in the car and make sure everything is intact before getting on it. As far as the suspension there are plenty of options. I only have sport springs and a good set of shocks and the car drives great.
What's which would be alright for me?
Ebc or tt

Ebc or tt? I'm not sure on my set up right now but I need a BC to see what's up. My manual in-cabin one isnt doing its job

Thanks. I should get that checked out somehow.
the old BOV was literally falling apart so I swapped it with a evo X last night.
This morning I took it out for a bit. I did a couple short pulls in 3rd and my boost gauge is showing nearly 25. thats about 5psi more than what the old BOV was reading prior to the swap.

I did a full synthetic oil change this morning with a new OEM filter (Thanks Flo!)
and now the Check Engine light is off. From what flo said, about the knock sensor, I think he's right. The CEL comes on when I start pulling pretty hard. I also Have a Weird sound thats either in the cabin or the engine bay. Its sort of a whining or beeping/buzzing sound. Its really weird.
but it only comes on when Im boosting pretty hard. Somewhat the same time as the CEL comes on.
