Remember when I said, by the end of these year I'll have an EVO? Well, I finally got my ULTIMATE dream car. I enjoy other cars and there are definitely better cars than an 05 Evo 8 but its safe to say I dont yearn for any other car anymore. With BabyG and Eve, I can consider my dream car list complete.

She came with a few goodies already.

HKS 272 camshafts
Kiggly HLA
It has upgraded valve springs and retainers but the brand escapes me at the moment.
Greddy 3" FMIC
Greddy hardpiping
HKS SSQV
Invidia o2 housing
Perrin 3" downpipe
Cobb 3" testpipe
Greddy 3" Titanium exhaust
Full Race tubular exhaust manifold
Allstar Performance vented catch can
HKS adjustable cam gears
Zaklee clear camgear cover
Greddy Profec B Spec2 Electronic boost controller
AEM Uego wideband
Autometer Sport CompII boost gauge
Swift lowering springs
Hawk HP+brake pads
Powerstop slotted rotors
JDM Evo9 headlights
JDM Evo 9 taillights
JDM Evo9 rear bumper

It's currently sitting on some 17" Ronals I got for free with snow tires from a buddy, but she came with 18x8.5 Volk TE37 that is currently bolted to BabyG because I needed the 15mm adapters to fit these Ronals over the Brembos. lol

First couple of days after I got her, I had to replace the right front wheel hub and fix the leaking throttle body shaft seals. She looked like this though. I branded her as soon as I pulled her into the garage.

I will be mostly using her as my regular "daily" As of now, I will be keeping my silver LS V6 as my work car (I have about 400lbs of tools and drive about 3000 miles a month for work. The EVO would be very expensive to maintain if I use it for work). But Im trying to keep her stock block, maybe a ported EVO 9 turbo or my 5858 when BabyG gets an upgrade. She dynod 300whp and 271 ft lbs of torque on AMS Mustang dyno @ 25psi I believe but I am going to get her retuned by Devin for peace of mind.

Plans for the near future will be Boostin performance tune @20psi on pump and stock fuel system, a "lancer" trunk for a clean rear wing delete, 20% tint, BBS MR wheels and nose chop on the front bumper. I want a reliable 350whp EVO that I can drive everyday and take to the track if the Galant is down. Started from the bottom now were here!

You ask and I shall deliver. I didnt like the composition of this phot which is why I didnt use it. I think its time for me to upgrade to a new lens. I am getting bored with the kit lens.

Had to replace the HKS SSQV because it started sticking in the cold, and being VTA on a MAF car the car did not want to cooperate so I got a TiAL QR and recirculated. Also going to get retuned on Devins Mustang dyno Next Saturday.

Tune was successful. 309whp 302wtq Stock injector stock turbo on a Mustang dyno. These numbers are with the car still on the EVO 8.5 turbo. Planning on going to a ported EVO 9 once I get babyG situated for this season.

Do you have ambits on the galant too? If so how do you like em? I first heard of em watching TJ Hunt's youtube. They look good on the evo.

4g63lover

Yeah I have ambits on the galant as well. And that's the same reason I looked them up lol. They're awesome for the price.

Don't know if it would have been better to pm but just finished watching this vid, and figured you might be interested if you hadn't heard and any other evo owners on here too... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pyZbBW-fZ9A

Never know might be worth it. Hopefully being stock isn't a requirement, because to me they might as well forget it lol. It's probably like 2/10 evos I see on the road that are stock.

Possibly the last weekend I will have off of work in a while. So I had an hour to kill today so I took some pictures before dinner with the wife.
