Well, even though purple would be cool it will clash horribly with the arc intake in my opinion.. Unless of course you are going to order Stadia II Venus editions for the interior then DO iT! (I could hook you up on them btw... But they are super pricey lol)

I'll see what I can do. From what I've been told, that SAFC is ancient. As for as the parts, I'm assuming that what was on the build list, is still installed. All the mounting hardware and fittings doesnt look like they've been touched for ages.
If the previous owner had parted anything out, it probably wasn't major components.

SAFC was meant for OBDI ECUs as it is a devise that would try to trick the ecu to spit out more or less fuel at certain rpms.. As someone already mentioned that our ECUs are smarter n will adjust to the changes therefore it is not a good mod for our Evos....u can sell that on ebay n use the money for smaller injectors....make sure your ecu harness is not butchered upon removal, glad everyone is willing to help a fello evo....that's badass!

I definitely don't have to push too hard on accelerator to feel the power anymore lol.
My tune isn't aggressive because I don't have a Boost Gauge so he didn't want to up my boost too much. He said he did up my boost by 2lbs though. But I need to get the Gauge to have a more precise tune. He will retune my car for free once I get it too so no problem there. He did a lot of removal / modifications on the limits and restrictions. Last time I dynoed before a tune-up was 260hp. So I'm going to see what differences it made maybe next week again on dyno.
I probably would never get past 140, but now I can, that limiter was removed. My Redline range is slightly higher also. 2-step launch control is up to 6K now.
I did do some pulls with him on the Freeway, I was driving he was logging. I noticed a smoother powerband. Especially on a gear shift, I no longer Bog down between gears. So that's definitely a + for me. Anyway next things to do is get that 3 Grimmspeed Port, Innovate Wideband and Defi Boost Gauge.
