Thanks, Warr. I think I'll be doing it electronically.

Well, I got the parts. I'm waiting on the tune. I put the exhaust in, though. It went in real easy, with no real difficulty. I didn't have time to do pictures for for a write up, though. The exhaust sounds pretty good. Not as loud as I though it would be, but I'm thinking about getting the Magnaflow instead. At WOT it sounds awesome! There was definitely a decrease in spool time and an increase throttle response. Hopefully, I'll have the flash by tomorrow to get the rest of the parts in.

Yeah, between the exhaust and the LICP I installed, I also noticed a decrease in spool. The car just seems to respond so much better to the throttle, and it's quite easy to get into boost if you're not paying attention...

I had the alignment done earlier this week and the tech even commented on the fact that the car just seemed so eager to run when we took it out for a quick road test after he had finished.

My Buschur filter kit arrived today also, so I'm thinking about throwing that and the Walboro in this weekend. I'm curious to see how much, if any, the cone filter improves on the throttle response and spool time.

Let us know how the car feels once you get all the parts on and load in the flash.

Yeah, I'm still waiting on the flash. I think today, I'll put the boost gauge in and get that out of the way. Now I'm thinking about doing the licp, too. But, I'll let you know how it feels after the MBC, filter, and flash.

Ha. I wish I had that luxury, but Buschur is a bit far from me. That, and I like doing the work myself.

when I go to sell the Evo I think a good selling point will be when I say, Built and Tuned by Buschur racing, and Ill have receipts. Thats a big reason why I went there. shoot there only 30 mins from my house.

Haha, having a modded car automatically makes it worth less not more unless your driving 56 chevy.

My only advice to the original poster is go for a few WOT runs, and in about a week tighten the band clamps again unless you used an impact wrench on them (as recommended by Buschur) . Those clamps need to be super tight not to leak.

Does anyone know how long it usually takes Al at Dynoflash to send a tune through e-mail? It's been over a week. I sent another e-mail, but no reply. I just called, so we'll see what happens.

Al isn't my favorite person though he did do a decent tune for me. You can never get a hold of him and he never returns calls or emails.

I'm changing to Sean Ivey, at least I won't have to drive 2 hours to get a tune.

Whenever you have trouble getting in touch with Al, just let me know. I can usually get to him right away and resolve any issue, especially if it's as simple as sending off an eflash. Hit me up in PMs or on AIM at night when I log on. It really only takes 30 mins to do the eflash, so if you haven't gotten it in a week, then he hasn't gotten to it in his list of things to do or didn't get the email.

Alright, finally got the flash. I'm gonna be putting on the filter and MBC tonight. The boost is supposed to be set at 21, right?
