Wire Routing

Was looking over the car and checking things out. I noticed this under neath and wasn't sure if this is how its supposed to be routed. It doesn't seem like its in the right spot but I have never looked over an evo before.

That looks like a aftermarket oil temp gauge. I would reroute that as its hitting the pulley and will tear its self apart.

This doesn't even remotely surprise me, the idiot that had my car before had wiring just like this, like a sweet narrow band air fuel gauge tapped into the front O2.

That's the OEM oil temp gauge wire. It's supposed to be zip tied to the oil cooler line. Nothing special, just keep it away from the pulleys.

I took that crap out on the first week I got my MR.

Its like Mitsubishi just put the MR gauges at the last second.....

Actually, by the workmanship, I think they did.
