When you refer to "Evans FAB" intake mods in your sig, are you speaking of the (mostly Honda oriented) tuner shop up in Mount Bethel, or something else?

If so, did you have this done there, or was it something they did, and then sent to you (you're a fair ways from them distance wise, since they are about an hour north of me on the Delaware, and you're about an hour and a half + SOUTH of where I am)?

Also, IF this is who you used for this mod, how was their; service, cleanliness of their shop, quality of work done, willingness to work on and with a platform/make they usually don't bother with, etc.? [dunno]
Would you chance a full on dyno tune from them, or even a dyno pull for data logging info?

lol well my last name is Evans. and right now im actually in williamsport but i frequent west grove a lot.

i chopped off half the box bottom to make the air find the filter easier and made it a flat bottom with a piece of sheet metal and rivets. i also opened up the front of the intake snorkel to get direct air from the front behind the grille. nothing overly fany but functional.

nobody touches this car unless its warranty and even then i expect issues.

OK, gotcha! [thumb]

Just thought that maybe you went there since it is an eastern Pennsy tuner/shop with that exact name, and there are not all that many of them in our general area, (but there is Evolution Performance in Aston near where you used to be, or at least still have listed in your username space).

Do you ever go to STPR up in Wellsboro in early June, or do you not give a damn about rallying?
(My older son attended PCT in Williamsport about a decade ago.)

I'd like to go to the rallying there! I've heard about it but I never remember or have time it seems. I whip my cars down dirt roads up here at 45mph+ so im down for some rally! LOL.

-Front pads are shot. of course they never LOOK shot when I check on em. brake job this weekend.
-Need a trans fluid change. maybe this weekend
-TPMS light is ON, I need the marrying tool for when I swap wheels. Winters are going back on this weekend so NBD for now.
-New wheels look and feel great. I got em on the OEM tires with tons of tread. I just touched up the chips on them today...much better.
-CEL for the O2 sensor went off...imma watch it and have the dealer know it popped up on me.

- For some reason I really wanna go to mod land after warranty is up. I'm thinking 93oct, Cobb AP with a Randy tune, depo FMIC, hard piping and HFC. #stage3bro.
I have really just been whipping this as a DD, but I'd like to maybe make it have some power on just bolt ons.
