shouldn't you donate your money to the poor & less fortunate of the world instead of selfishly spending money on yourself?

Those things are beat to hell and back, especially more likely when the owner has his car modified. No matter what the owner says about babying the car, I don't care. Consider the fact that his user name is "DontRevMe."

Search his post history to see how he treated his car. Take a look at this: http://forums.evolutionm.net/showthread.php?t=223787

"again, i am new to turbo's..and know very little about them. I purchased an MBC, and realy have no idea how to dial it in properly, AND, if i raise the stock boost settings, what else do i need to do? Just more octane, or is tuning involved? Or does the factory maf handle the tuning for me.

-completely lost dontrevme- "

Who buys parts without knowing the ins and outs first?

This goes for any used performance car for me (I don't buy 'em) but especially double for Evos.

_______________________________________

used evos are the worst cars for getting beat on and then sold--both as track whores and by vin diesel wannabes (ask bulletproof about that ), so its a dangerous car to get used. the engine as stock is pretty solid--it's been around forever now--but a lot of evo owners go with a manual boost controller with no tune on it because they're only $14.99 if you make it from parts at home depot (or $149.99 from JDMseller105@ebay.com ). it can be risky, that's all.

also, mitsu denies warranty claims using any reason, so don't rely on that.
