It's not bad now, when I put all the new parts and panels on, I also put dynomat in the doors...not a lot, just the 12"square around the speakers. That, along with padding in the new panels quieted the interior pretty good.

Hey I had a quick question

How well do those wind air deflectors work. I would love to go a 120 MPh with the windows down but its too windy.

They work nice when you have the window about 1/3 of the way up...not much air get's in. I bought them so I can have the windows cracked when it's raining.

These are the ones from Mitsubishi so they're a little harder to put on than the ventvisors that just stick on with double-sided tape. With these, you actually have to take the weather stripping down and put little clips up there. When you put the visors on, they use the double-stick tape and 3 or 4 clips each to make sure they stay on.

you may have wanted to get a "EVOLUTION VIII MR" badge instead, and convert your RS into an MR, you already got the vortex generator, then just get some aftermarket rims.

There's a big difference to the GSR and the MR. Unless you already have the 6-speed transmission...there's no point. Or, you're just trying to be an ***...the vortex generator actually serves a purpose.

Looks great but from the photo it appears that the angle on your rear wing looks mighty steep -providing gobbs of down force. You may want to look at an VIII wing for a typical setting that wont crush your trunk hinges and needlessly cause your EVO to suck down fuel at an even greater rate than usual.

I just went out and adjusted it so it's pretty much flat, guess I'll just wait and see if it does anything.
