Keep the 2 cars…you have the best of both worlds. If you were to get an EVO9, then you are essentially replacing a type of vehicle you already possess with one that is newer (4dr awd turbo sedan) and eliminating the S2k which I think you would miss. I tried to just have one car…it didnt work. People that have had 2 cars always feel a need for 2 cars, its just the way it is.

those whole turbo and sc the stook is a bad idea… not to bash those who said it…

it sounds cool, but on a car that IHE costs = 1500+ … just think about how much it would cost to do FI the right way… not only would you have to do the turbo but you need a new rear dif…

i would get something pimp that you can actually fit people in… something practical in most situations…

if you think you can get the gallant to a reliable dd, then do it up and keep both cars… but i know you want to make it a beast… which will only result in destruction.

Two words Howie:

**DO IT!**

Reduce your debt, have the best of both worlds, and you don’t really have to mod the EVO to get power or fun from it. Not to mention that MIVEC is the cat’s meow. You should check out this months issue of Modified magazine to see what JUN did with a basically stock MIVEC EVO. Crazy.

I’d trade my DSM for an EVO too, but I’m in Rubicant’s boat. I just paid off my car. So now that it is all mine, plus the amount of money I spent on it, it’s not really feasible for me to go get an EVO.

If you wait for the X, your cars will depretiate, and then you won’t get the same amount of money.

the stook doesn’t lose much value either…

stick with what you have. Let the VR4 stay the mod/repair monster that it is and drive the stook for cruising and just to be a pimp.
