Hi ,
Welcome to the forums. Now that you have a real car. Ha

 

i wouldnt mind owning an Evo as a winter car myself lol welcome to the forums

 

welcome aboard
this is a great site.
lots of info from a good bunch(?) of guys/gals.
have fun with your new toy.
i love mine.

 

Welcome aboard - really nice picture.

Where are you located ?

 

Thanks, I am located on the west side of Cincinnati Ohio.

So besides the $300 rear tires whats the first thing i should do to this thing. She sure does have alot of cats and seems quiet *shifty eyes*

 

lots of threads on here about "what do I do first"

Needswings has the cat-back Magnaflow on sale at $499 now - it is quite a bit louder than stock.

Major improvements :
1. Single CAI ( Cold Air Induction ), also at Needswings.
2. SprintBooster - makes you think you have more power.
3. EuroTune - makes you know you have more power.

lots and lots of other mods available on this forum.

 

you need to hook up with James as he is on the southwest side of the Queen City..... He has done just about everything to his....great info source. I am sure he will join in on the welcome....

 

Doc is right, hook up with James.

THEN, read my sigline! It is good to have a new PermaGrin Club Member on board!

(If some asshat in a Mercedes cap offers you any "Jungle Juice", just smile and nod - and keep walking.)

"EVORYAN" - oh, I get it! Was XFRYAN taken?

 

Yeah any help would be great... as far as a goal goes i would like to get it up to SRT stock power with just bolt ons No major power adders. Still trying to keep the whole get me to work everyday aspect.

Mildly interested in making as much stuff as i can... i have a hard time spending hundreds of dollars on "pipe" HA

Also whats up with this Eurotune stuff are they the only "tuner" for this type of ECU or is there just not any DIY type apps... Keep in mind i am use to Evoscan and Ecuflash for the Evo stuff.

 

Good luck with that.

 

So your saying i need luck with adding 100hp to a car ... ? I did about 5 mins of research and it looks like for fairly cheap you can have a 260ish HP n/a xfire. im sure there is more power to be found... especially when "tuners" are barley into the 11's with your SRT cars. Someone is missing something Sir.

 

keep reading...............be sure to post your results

 

Something is indeed missing and that would be your research on this matter.

With tuners barley into the 11's you will have to wheat for better times. My humor may be a bit rye but I try not to be too corny.

 

LMFAO........Best post of the day Dave!

 

You have much to learn Grasshopper.. Turbo mod is the Great White Hope of the NA world..

But if your up to the challange.. slap one on of your own likeing (there are sites for diy kits) and let us know how that tuning works out for you.. Would love to hear your adventures of teaching the NA to see boost..

 

I have learned, drive it for what it is. XF NA

It still is way FUN to drive!

 

Exactly.. break neck speed was not the deciding factor for my purchase.. but I'm not going to turn down nearly 100 hp increase when the turbo kits become available either.. LOL.

 

Well im going to look into it i just dont understand the lack of aftermarket for this car.
