hey thanks for the welcoming guys, yes it is quite a change from the Evo, going from 256kwatw is quite a change, but I am sure with a few goodies I can push some decent power figures out of the pirelli :)

as for pics, this was my old car.

Mate that looks wicked! Any reason why you decided to change to the Pirelli?

I owned the Evo since 06, heavily modded it, took it on the track, got quite bored of it and the fact it was a cop magnet did not help opted for something low key :P

Congrats on the new car John!

If you want to get the full potential out of your Pirelli, go GIAC Extreme, the highest numbers from any Pirelli!

yes flash + dump is prob first on my list, unless there is a better option for 1st mods :)

hey man. i can see you are from my hood. seen your black pirelli a few times driving down our street. if you see a silver gti flying past your place that's me. remember seeing a silver evo 9 parked there everyday I go to work and back. nice evo. always used to look for it. welcome to the club man and happy motoring.

enjoy them one by one...lol. if you do it all in one go you will be bored again!
flash. then dump. then reflash. then intercooler. then flash. then suspension. then brakes. then fuel pump and flash again.

i suppose i am preaching to the converted however gauging by your evo though...

Welcome John, great purchase!

The EVO looks like a weapon but like you say they attract the wrong kind of attention.
