i cannot stand dealerships. sorry to hear you had to put up with that BS man.

You didn't want those Rota's anuway. But that is some crap you had to deal with! BTW, you should be recieving a PM soon......

Snakes709 01-01-2012 11:59 AM

lol, thx, Yea i heard the rota's are crap, especially for racing. They looked sweet on the car. I'll find something lighter next year for racing, i just used up my extra money on a turbo upgrade and everything to go with it. Cant wait to get out of this place...lol.

save up for some rpf-1's dude. IMO, you can't beat the price on a set of quality, light-weight wheels for the X. and i think they look the best on the X compared to anything else out there :tup:

Agreed. Save for some rpf-1's or something. Rotas are the cheapest junk out there.

my buddy has them, they are light as **** but i dont like the looks. I'm a picky person when it comes to rims though.

Also something i forgot to mention about all the bs, which is the funniest. About 1 month after i got into afghanistan i called my gf to see how things are going. The dealership called her the day prior, talking about pressing charges against me for vandilizing a few of their cars on the lot. My gf was like "ok what happend" the gm replied "well last night around 10pm we have your boyfriend on video, damaging 3 cars on our lots, we will be pressing charges" She replied "well im pretty damn sure it wasnt him" he asked how would she know and she said "because he has been in afghanistan for a month now" and she just hung up.

I dont know whats more funny, the fact they are blaming me for that when im on the other side of the earth, or the fact someone else has a beef with them and smashed their cars up.

sfearl1 01-01-2012 11:15 PM

what a joke! bunch of d-bags!

UNKNOWN_370 01-01-2012 11:26 PM

Wow wat fkn azzhls. He musta felt like a dumbazz when he heard you were out serving your country while he was out to get over on one of his countrymen. The irony of life. That's so sad.

Snakes709 01-02-2012 01:57 AM

yea i would love to see this video of me on their lot. As much as i would love to **** that dealership up, im not going to go AWOL, jump on a plane, fly 26 hours back to edmonton, **** the cars up, then fly 26 hours back here and get charged..lol.

Anyways back on topic. I know the evo has cheap interior, but its good in a way, it cuts down on the weight. Some people complain about the shifter in the GSR feeling notchy (i know mine did). Simple solution is switch to MT-85 fluid and buy this....

twm short throw shifter with leopard a6 shift knob + cage replacement and base, cable and underhood bushings. :happydance:

Brazilbro 01-03-2012 10:29 PM

I got my fluid , the shifter is on my list of wants... That and a CBRD turbo kit.

sfearl1 01-04-2012 08:09 AM

have you X guys seen the new stock frame turbos from MAP? i think they're putting down like 400+ on pump gas and minimal supporting mods...

Snakes709 01-04-2012 09:39 AM

pretty much any turbo can do that. FP just released a ball bearing version of the fp green, red and black turbos, which i orderd. Should be shipped in the next few weeks. But im going all out so i orderd....

BB FP Red (ported, oil feed line upgrade and 25psi wga)
FIC 1100cc injectors
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
AEM Fuel pressure regulator kit
AMS Cold Air Intake
AMS Upper intercooler Pipe
AMS lower intercooler pipe w/ TiAL QR bov
ETS 4" intercooler
Tomei Expreme Exhaust
TWM Short throw shifter w/ cage, base, cable and underhood bushings
Grimspeed 3 port boost solenoid
Boomba racing catch can
Perrin Rear Sway bar
Perrin Rear Endlinks

To go along with the AMS Downpipe, T1R Resinated Test Pipe that i already have on the car. Going to get tuned to 27psi, which should be between 410-440hp with full spool around 3600rpm, all on 91 pump gas...lol. The turbo can make alot more power but the block can only take so much. So im keeping the boost low until i build the engine, probably sometime in the next year or two. Havent decided if i want to stay 2.0L or go 2.2 or 2.3L. But first i gotta do my brakes and suspension. Damn coilovers cost more then the turbo..lol.

The EVO X is a nice and fun car, but I swore never to do business with Mitsubishi back when I went into a Mitsubishi dealership trying to test drive an EVO 9. They belittled me, insulted me, and even yelled at me. Funny thing is that that dealership went out of business a few years back.

/\ I swear Mitsubishi must subscribe to the Soup Nazi school of customer service.
