Mag X hint at front dam and hood vent?

http://www.mag-x.com/index_ie.html[/URL] (You may need Japanese script to display) File attached for those having trouble linking!!!

Maybe shirokuma could shed some light on #10 edition of Mag-X cover which as of 8/26 shows the evo 8 on the cover with a big air vent in the center of the hood. Kool.

Peace out and "Keep her between the trees!!"

I'd like to see what that magazine has to say. That looks like the other pics of Evo VIII's we've seen. Looks like the cover reveals that they have the scoop on the Evo VIII

I shot a personal message off to Shirokuma as well has mentioned in post so maybe he can help, since he is in Tokyo. We would all love to see him post an interpretation at www.apexjapan.com!

Cool pic man!!! Looks much better than that ugly thing at the Vegas meeting.

Now if MagX would only update their damn website. It's been like 2 months since their last update. And I do check it every day...

i didn't even realize that was the VIII when i first glanced at it...RaX was right - it does look better than the spy shots.

and the hood, it kinda reminds me of the hood from the Hyper kit (cept it doesn't scoop down)

After comparing the depth of the hood vent in the Mag X #10 cover to the vegas spy picks, I can't tell a difference in size. What do you all think? All I know is that vent is MASSIVE!!!!! (20-24" wide by 15-18" deep is my bet based on lancer hood dimens.... Thats a great sign folks. "Lot's of cool refreshing air required!!!!

I went and took a look - the cover is yet another artist's interpretation. The actual article is a couple of pix of a Evo VII with covered over front and rear bumper undergoing testing in the States, I think it had Michigan manu. plates on it. That's really the extent of the article, no news besides that.

Cheers,

Paul Hansen
