I do like it though. Nice job! I like different and creative stuff that you dont see everyday. Plain and repetitive stuff is boring. I used to do ALOT of car shows with my old car before the Evo as thats what it was built for so I seen so much stuff repeated over and over it got old. New idea's are good for everyone not to mention they are attention getters.

I think the only thing I would have changed would be to have gone with plastic instead of carbon fiber so I could do some more custom work like molding some angle rings to it so the gauges would be pointed at you a bit more for better visibility and function.

Either way though

You sold me the parts! It's been over two years now, that car was in my garage for a month while I reworked almost everything - EVO 8 cams in an EVO 6 was a tricky deal. I had to modify the cam position sensor trigger that mounts to the cam and order trick metric bolts!

I'll see if I can dig up some more and email you.

It was "Black" magic

The EVO 6 is not my car. I just knew the guy and he wanted to do a bunch of upgrades and was over his head (no knowledge of cars). So instead of ordering EVO 6 parts and waiting for months to get them we used EVO 8 parts and I got my modify on.
