The po sticker in the windshield, lower drivers side Anytime the car is there im there. Come in a say hello stranger. I LOVE the car, I find something new that I love about the car everyday. As much as i hate to say it, its better than the talon in everyway i can think of. Thanks for all the positive comments guys

See i was all about the QM. I really wasn't for the exedy twin with all the trouble i had with the talon. I also like that the QM is a push and not a pull. How many Miles do you have on yours?

If you want the baller status the ticket is the push style exedy from AMS. You could do the Tilton, but your talking money money. Rebuilds are not cheap either and the clutches aren't for daily driving.

You need a Honda again for a DD. The power you want these cars shouldn't be DD unless you have the money for high maintenance.

This car is best balanced and happy with 400-450. You want that power with the spool and your looking at a green or if a little power hungry, a red.

Anyways, enough rambling. Exedy has a great track record in the evo's, the Qmaster, not so much.

*Disclaimer* All statements above are matter of opinion, not fact. You can't shoot the messenger in this one, hes just telling you want he thinks.

*Disclaimer 2* Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one.

Everything is up in the air right now as far as parts go. I'm not going to spend 3k on a clutch just to spend 1k on a rebuild a year later. I'll most likely stick with the QM idea for now. I do miss the honda a lot though

Looks badass as always man!

And the 400-450whp mark for a DD-able mid way point comment is about right for most DSM's. I'd even go as far as saying that's about right for any turbocharged 4cyl platform. Anymore and your increasing the maintenance/ $$ / and breaking chances significantly at those power levels. I need a toy now .
