Thanks guys. I would say the biggest difference is how the car pulls all the way to redline now rather than pulling hard and then letting up around 5500 RPM. I think I am going to do some cosmetic stuff now and leave the engine alone as it is only going to get expensive now with things such as turbo kits and what not. And I want to save for a house and probably a ring (yeah, I know...). I do have big plans for the car and after I pay it off this summer plan to start collecting parts over the winter so next spring/early summer I can just throw on all kinds of goodies. Some of the JDM parts I plan to buy come from Mitsu, Do-Luck, Advan, Tein, and Kansai Service. So rest assured it will have balls and be JDM style clean. Anyone want to buy some used JDM EVO VII tail lights?

I am still on the stock clutch and from what I have read and seen with my own eyes, they tend to go bye-bye quick when you start drag racing. But as of now I plan to at least hit Ebensburg this year. And John, I am going to eventually sell my VII tails for some JDM MR VIII black/amber tails to match my JDM MR VIII black/amber heads. I think they will look better with the JDM rear bumper cover, carbon front lip, carbon side spats, and dark gun metal Advan RS rims. Gonna do a light tint job too. This of course is just a dream for now but by next year at this time might be a reality. I will say I am done with the car for 2007 as I spent way more than I wanted to this year already. I still owe like 4400 on the thing so I want to pay it off before getting any more toys ya know? Trying to be responsible. I'll list my mods on here too when I get a sec.
