No one wants a $60k evo with high monthly payments, get out now and buy a 9.

X2.
Good luck with what you decide. I'd like a ride still though.
I wish I had a motor already I'd buy all that stuff apart from teh injectors.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
I will eventually move to a c6 z06 i think, or if I get a nice bonus a c7 myself haha.
I don't want to risk it breaking any more and honestly I don't have the funds to keep it right now unless I want to keep paying interest. I hate interest and just having the evo sit for a bit will be a good thing I think.
I will try to stop by, maybe this weekend Aaron and give a ride before I take it apart.
Anyone want to help take the turbo kit off? I am guessing it won't be too hard but I have never done it. Beers for all!
I would guess I will start it Sunday if I get time or next week/weekend.
