^ I'm doing things that the factory didn't do because it would have raised the price to an unheard of amount as a new car! The parts I use are PROVEN on a dyno/testing to add horseopower/performance! And you? Those 'intercooler holes' are obviously there to allow more intercooler surface and it's couplings to stay cool/as cold as possible for the dense air route to the turbo!
Closing the "holes" up simply for looks? Come on! This is a performance car, not a Cadillac! SMH...When you adding the neons???

^^ if I add neons you'll probably tell me off that it's obstructing some other performance part.. Because I'm building the car for you and not myself (o_O)
* do some back to back testing with your IX bumper.. IC hole blocked vs IC hole untouched dyno run then report back with some real world data.... If the difference are massive ill buy a new IX bumper and throw away this one..
* Ring the Mitsubishi engineers and asked them why they decided to design the Evo X bumper to have no air flow over the IC pipes..
Otherwise, go hate in the Evo Stanced thread or something....
Why are you even trolling in the Show & Shine section???

just look at a stock IX, those holes provide some nice cold air to the endtanks lol. They dont even effect the core...To the OP, this looks like a cool mod, hope it turns out right

I do "think" mitsu made it for extra air....but maybe they made it for looks. Do you know what i mean?

these guys are the worst; please stay out of anything involving going fast and or technical.

I think I got it know.I would love to trade in the Evo for a CTS-V wagon, just can't afford it
