What's up guys? I just wanted to say Hi to everyone and say I just bought a 03 Evo that is bone stock and I can't wait to start modding it. I got out of my 95 eclipse gst because the tranny was going and I thought it was time for a change. So I'm not to much of a newbie to the 4G63t. I'm also a member over at dsmtuners.com. I will post up some pics later on and be asking everyone's advice on some first mods and other things. Anyone have any Starting Advice?

Welcome. :thumb:
Coming from a 2g and dsmtuners you already know what's going on. One piece of advise I can give you; you might want to hold off on an intake/filter untill you have some type of fuel control. It might run rough without it. Other than that, it's just like the 2g.
Did you sell yours yet? If not, swap over as much electronics as you can; TT, AFC, MBC/EBC, gauges, etc. Even the rear strut tower bars can bolt up; you just need a little longer bar or tweak the brackets.

Is there a right up on the rear strut tower bar install, also what about a rear lower tie bar? I have a SAFC2, Turbosmart MBC, Greddy TT, strut bars, BOV, and my intake adapter I am going to try use on the evo. I traded my car, I work at a Mitsu dealer so I got a decent deal.

I haven't seen write up's for either one.
I still have to do some cutting and welding on my rear strut brackets, but I'll do one if one's not done by the time I get mine on. Basically just torque the rear strut mounting nuts to 33 (+/-3) ft. lbs.
Mitsubishi makes one. It's pricey here, but since you work for mitsu...

I already Priced that bar and it's around $280 at my cost, lol. So I'm looking toward a aftermarket bar.

best mod so far, has to be my Evo RS trunk bar. cost me under $30 at my dealer cost and it really did tighten up the back end. i can't wait until i get the rear bar and lower front bars in place. I have pics up at www.cardomain.com/id/sic95gst
