Dave's Evo X.

Ahh...a fresh new journal to chronicle my addiction to performance cars.

I will be signing the paperwork tomorrow for a Octane Blue 2008 Mitsubishi Evolution X GSR. It comes with the Aero Kit, SSS Package and Navigation package. I was going to get the sport shift knob, but it wasn't as comfortable as the stocker. The iPod cable isn't special either as it just works off the aux input.

I get the Evo tomorrow afternoon after I get the STi inspected and drop it off.



Mod List:

Power:
Perrin Panel Air Filter.
Perrin Turbo Inlet.
AGP FMIC.
AGP Upper Intercooler Pipe.
Perrin Turboback Exhaust.
Cobb AP w/ AccessTuner Race.
Perrin V2 3 Port EBCS.
Perrin Stage 3 "Aggressive" Map.


Driveline:
AMS Gate Selector Bushing.
Redline MT-85 Fluid.
WORKS Shifter Cable Bushings.
WORKS Shifter Console Bushings.
WORKS Short Throw Shifter.
Torque Solution Driveshaft Carrier Bearing Support Bushings.

Brakes:
ATE Super Blue Fluid.
Technafit SS Brake Lines.

Suspension:
Perrin PSRS w/ Caster. *
Perrin H&R Coilovers 8k/7k.
Perrin Rear Swaybar.
Perrin Rear Endlinks.

Interior:
WORKS GRAB Shift Knob.
T1R Shift Boot.
2010 Cupholder Console.

Exterior:
Perrin 3" Shorty Antenna.

* - To Be Installed.

Shoulda bought it

I made the change because I wanted something a little more grown up inside. This car doesn't beat me up, rides better than my STi did on the T2s, has a whole host of useful features I wanted, and honestly looks better.

It's just an all-around better car than my STi is. Sure, the STi has the track suspension, but the Evo isn't exactly hurting in that category itself...

Back in 2005, the Subaru was the better car, the Evo was the better performer. These days, the Evo is both (2008+ models only).

Honestly? I'm going to leave it stock for awhile...I modded the STi to the max and now I just want to enjoy a stock car for a little.
