So when you say you won't be tracking the car much unless you can get a good track insurance- are you talking about road racing or just at the strip?

That bumper looks a little like the ferrari 360 euro rear bumper. At first I didnt like it but it is growing on me more and more. Car looks awesome!

I will give lots of credit to the overall taste. Very well done.

As far as seeing one in my rear-view ... I think my first reaction would be to laugh. Why? It appears that the EVO is pushing a huge intercooler brick down the road. Now I know all about the pressure loss vs. cooling potential et al. but from my understanding, a bumper that could actually duct air in with less open frontal area in would look less like a bug eater?

Isn't there a rule of thumb that you really only need 1/4 the area exposed with a good duct design to effectively move the air past 100% of the intercooler area?

~j.

P.S. However I really do like the brake air guide inlets.

I personally feel that people should be bashing the people who put body kits on stock evos, not the people that build an all out beast. I guess its just jealousy, I know that 9 out of 10 people would kill to be able to drive that thing around... In any case keep up the good work, and please don't sticker it up. You've managed to build a rediculous looking car, but you've still kept it fairly clean, and stickers would ruin it, IMO of course.
i totally agree with you, even though i prefer the cleaner look, dave's car kind of made me reconsider (it looks so friggen monsterous )
FWIW: i wouldnt change a thing
