Nice run Jon!

Every time I see an Evo....I am reminded of this article:
S2000 is better than Evo

EDIT: It always makes me smile and laugh because its written from such a fanboi perspective, which results in the article not having much true substance.
There, I edited my post so that no more thread readers will mis-interpret what I posted.

Yeah the 57 gears area easily the best bang for the buck modification. They add a good amount of "torque" to a motor that really could use some (lets not get started on a debate about it however).

The real question is going to be how gears are with FI. I'll be reporting back with that when the day of my install and tune comes
With forced induction you dont want 4.57's, you'd want to go with something lower.....to take advatnage of your turbo power

same thing more or less.

With the 4.57s you'll wind out the gears way too fast, maybe even spin out the tires too much and get no traction..... I'd say sell the gear and go back to stock, or go for a lower FD gear
