Not really, just stage 2 with a few other bolt-ons, maybe 240-250 to the wheels. What are the stage 2 numbers on those new 2.0s? I've only really run stock ones, never seen one with much done.

I almost bought it to, the test drive was sweet and that 6spd was great. When the guy only offered my 8grand for my 06 balt with 6000 miles I laughed at him. He then said I would also need to put down a aditional $2500 and my payment would be around $850 a month I almost fell out of my chair. He said I would have to flip the $8000 of negative equaty in my balt into this loan. I was like how can you say I am upsidedown on my balt when I only owe 16grand on it. I put down like 8 grand on the balt less than 6 months before that, what a joke. I told him for that kind of money I could make my car run 10's with the entire Cowboy cheerleading squad packed in the car for the ride. He then asked me to leave. I said I would as soon as you give me the keys to my car back. THEN they could not find my keys, and it took them about 15 minutes to locate them. Turns out the guy that did the aprasel on my car went to lunch with my keys in his pocket. They made him come back right away, and I left tire marks all the way across there parking lot. Sorry for the long rant, but it is a true story.

I dk what I would have done with that kind of agravation built up...regardless it was a !)X better decision not to go with the evo...not worth it in any degree...
