no no, i didnt get a speed 6.



I just bought an Evo IX in graphite gray pearl. Picking it up on monday most likely, anybody out here have one? It feels like a fun car and everything I read online is great

Nice buy! I have heard good things about the car, but its true that Mitsu's organization sucks.

400rwhp on stock turbo running e98 fuel on the evo 9 at 28pounds i think.



since its OBD II you can flash the ecu with a 100 connecter, program, and laptop. bastards

There's a bolt on kit with ecu flash for 1275 and it gets u 12.26 in the 1/4 on 93 and 12.000 running 100 octane mix. Considering it runs 13.7 out of the box its a good deal. Gotta break it in first. Pict to follow soon.

Cool car - I haven't driven in one - but passengered at the track - it was pretty fun. Make sure if you track it that you register with a pseudonym if you want any warranty work taken care of.



Have fun!!
