Finally got an Evo!!

Well after many years of loving this car and wanting one, I got one. Trading in my Cobalt SS/SC and picking up this 2005 Evo MR. 40k miles but im getting it for $20,500 out the door. \







Well what do ya think? Only problem I have is I'm not feeling the wheels. Powder coat black? Can you tell what mods are done by the engine photo? thank uu

You need to check on your ACD fluid.
The engine bay needs to be cleaned up, as it is now, looks like a prison riot.
WTF is the ground on the intake manifold for?
GL, great car, just de-rice it.

All of those wires are for a grounding kit, as they all go to the negative battery terminal.

yeah remove the grounding kit. It's not worth it. I wouldn't put one on my car if I got it for free. Just adds clutter and useless weight. congrats on the Evo.
