Default heya folks
Hi fellas been kickin around the forums for a while thought i'd finally introduce.
Names Travis, i bought a clubspec evo 5 wagon a year ago and immediately started with the mods, did the usual exhaust-dumpipe-upipe-short intake-injectors-fuelpump- ECUTEK tune ect .... had it going sweet for a week then going down the fwy it completly destroyed itself (grey smoke everywhere like a volcano) ??? So any way im planing on putting a built 2.5ltr in the next few or more months, with a big turbo .
Will post pics of it eventually along the way, will see how it goes.

Yesterday had the privelige of meeting Gavin (STI325V6), What a top bloke and what a car absolutely awesome , acceleration was so violent i thought the gears were going to brake. was brilliant. Thanks man

yes ive heard about the whole 2.0 ltr vs 2.5 ltr debate, must admit initially i was going for the 207, but after alot of research decided the 257 for the win, because of its better driveabilty and qucker response more torque ect......on the street.

So guess im with trainwrex-STI325V6-gareth and STI-257 on this one,

And hell its whats the Americans are running so it must be good !

more likely the tune itself if I were to guess, who tuned it?

edit: dont think it was the tuner now
