Hey everyone, I am a freind of Davis Silver STI out in southern Cali. Thought is was time to set myself up in your world. I primarily visit our local enthusiast site socalevo.net. If you are ever in the need of some EVO technical assistance (and EvolutionM is too overwhelming) come check us out. I am also HKSEVO8 over there. For the mean time I figured I should show off a little of my bling bling.....

Lets see if this works and If I can remember how to upload pictures. Sorry for the small size pictures. I am still learning my way around a digital camera.

And last but not least my very own pride and joy!

Thanks for checking it out. I hope I can be a valuable contributer to this club.

Per Davis' request the list of mods for my car is short but sweet.
HKS RS Intake
HKS Hipower Carbon TI Exhaust
HKS SSQV BOV
HKS Hipermax RS Coilovers
HKS Eids
HKS Circle Earth Grounding Kit
HKS Turbo Timer
HKS Drift Spec Shift Knob & Various HKS Stickers (this is where I gained the most BHP)
UK Tail lights
Custom Blackout Headlights
Volk CE28N Wheels (on order, should arrive at my door in 6 to 8 weeks)

I plan on going bigger this spring with the addition of HKS Fcon V-Pro a bigger turbo and 272/272 cams.

I have not dynoed my car yet, but others who have very similiar setups are running 280 whp on our crappy 91 octane pump gas. My plan is to hit the 450-500 whp range on 100.

Hope this helps explain the car a little better.

I will take more photos and send them your way Davis. Thanks for the invite to host.

Later,
Rick

If that's not you Upgrades' forums, then we should have a big HKS Evo showdown. That would be interesting.

edit: I just noticed you joined this site 5 months ago.

HKS specializes in turbo systems so i would say it is their EVO with lots of cool stuff. 8)

i joined awhile back, but just wanted to scout around some before I started posting. I like smaller communities as opposed to the national ones.

The red evo is owned by HKS USA and it is the vehicle they used to develop parts for the North American market.
