all he realy needs to do is take off the arc bullshit and go to ams or busher racing ...that arc is not the best stuff for ur evo and for all the money u wasted on the arc **** if u would have spent it with the two companys i said u would be own alot of **** on the street.

Well I wish I could afford all the flip flops parts and swaps.
But all I can say is be happy with what you got.
But if if you are truly unhappy go with the gut and get the civic.

Rep Power: 278 i love both cars in fact i ahve spent many hours wrenching on both cars including a 95 gsx that ran 11's after we were done. over all i would say just keep the evo and use it as your track/fun car. and get a DD. there are guys making 900+whp now on AWD dynos thats 900+AWHP. you will be hard pressed to make any civic create that much power and it will never be AWD. if you are really stuck on a civic get a EG hatch and boost a b series. it would be much cheaper that a 7thgen and it has a huge aftermarket for CHEAP. much cheaper than the the k series. not to mention the price difference of a b series to a k series alone. for the $$$ factor the EG is a way better platform than a EM2. it weighs less too

Rep Power: 0 Hmm... with those mods on your car, you should be well into the 12's. I think it could be the 18's and that you do not have any engine management, or so it seems. Wouldn't a MBC and cam gears call for a tune anyway? Good pick up on ARC, I want ARC stuff too, but its just way too expensive. But, I would definitely not downgrade back to a FWD, because with all that power, there is a lot of loss of traction, and I doubt an LSD would fix all of it. By the way I do not drive a civic, and I am not a troll, my brother has a 2001 civic. Post up pictures when you can.

Rep Power: 0 Nice!! It could just be the added diameter. So, stock wise, you are just 1 second slower than a fully built k20a- someone mentioned that. Once you get that reflash and tune, you will find a new, greater love for your car. Since you already have a good suspension, the next thing I'd do would be sway bars. They make a world of difference in response and feel. If you are ever down in the Torrance area hit me up, I really want to check out your car.

Rep Power: 355 I think you should just trade me my car and $5,000 for your EVO. It already has awsome suspension. and runs low 14's/high 13's And its almost show ready minus a new paint job.

Rep Power: 264 buy an f-150 lightning or a silverado SS. Maybe a Mustang GT, G35 or a GTO If you were bored with an evo I think its time to look at something all together different.
