The car is for sale. It has a been a long and difficult project, I definitely went in way over my head. I had a blast sourcing parts, but now I'm left with the tuning, maintenance and paint, the boring and expensive stuff. It will be an incredibly rare and unique car when it's done, there is no doubting that, but my priorities are changing.
I'm still working on it, slowly, however I'm not yet in the position to keep three cars, there just isn't any room. And that said, my other car isn't going anywhere!

So I got about to fixing the exhaust leaks but the car still sounds terrible. I have HKS 272 cams installed with a 3" HKS exhaust and a full HKS intake. This does not sound normal, compared to other Evo's I've seen.
Any thoughts? I've gone through with a boost leak test numerous times but it keeps running super lean at idle, like 16.5+.
