honestly, I wouldnt run something like that on an EVO. I would use it on a beater or a dialy driver.

I would use the drain plug with the magnet from TRE, this way you will know if anything is wrong with the motor by the amount of metal shaving attached to the plug, it also keeps the metal shaving away from the oil. Its a good safety measure.

I don't trust those things. What if one day while you are driving it fails. You gonna leak all the oil.
