I think you will need a install kit....

 

For a perfect fit. Oil feed line, and both water lines. You will also need the compressor outlet, as the stock 8 outlet, will just touch the starter motor cover on a 9 turbo.

If you want to grind away a fraction at the starter motor cover, the 8outlet will fit.

It is apparantly possible to use the stock water and oil lines too, but, I am yet to try this.

 

ooo cool thanks for the info! it helps a lot!

 

Yes you can use the VIII lines.
Really only need the IX outlet pipe to make things come out smooth.

 

Most people will tell you that you only need the XI j-pipe and the turbo feed line, and new crush washers for this to bolt up. I am however **** and opted for the XI install kit from Russell at mitsubishiparts.net. You will need a few extra crush washers and such if you get his kit...

 

just need an install kit. I believe gruppe-s is having a deal right now for the evo9 turbo w/ the install kit for $799 shipped. That is a hellova deal.

 

crush washers are one time use only.to avoid bs later just get new ones.

 

This has been covered so many times and you dont need anything besides the j-pipe. I installed my 9 turbo with out any install kit and everything is fine. Save yourself the money for something else.

 

Nope. No need for an install kit.
