If you buy it all at the same time I'm sure they'll give you a discount... Send the guys at ECMLink a message!

Thanks for you answers .. I definitely wanna go the direction of ECMlink. Its the only reason i purchased this car.
as for the fmic I can just cool it with water/meth.  and the injectors I'd like to do after ECM link.

As for my second question.. where is the best place to get steady/carrier bearings? mine are wore out. the car has a vibration under acceleration I want to deal with. there is alot of slop my in my drive shaft so i will start there.

its normal for the carrier bearing to be a bit sloppy, thats how mitsu designed them.... i know all my awd dsm's i can grab the driveshaft and move it around quite a bit.

I have had a bad vibration on acelleration in dsm's before. (goes away when letting off throttle) also more noticable going up a hill when accelerating.  almost everytime it was due to excessive play in the inner front CV joint.  Replaced the axle and it was good to go!

Fwd dsm's are reliable. It's the awd ones that blow up all the time

So far I have been pretty good about not spending to much money on it. It's pretty bad on fuel since the evap canister broke and I eliminated all my egr stuff.
I need to purchase a PCV Valve and rear differential fill/level check plug.
