Nope. USDM Evo 8s and 9s had them just behind front bumper. Example: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...ought-car.html It's almost as if Mitsu knew not to put the pump behind the rear wheel in a country that uses salt on the roads in the winter. And then space or their brains ran out when they got to the Xs.

Update: my motor tested dead, so I started tearing it apart to see if it was fixable. Two solenoids came off easily. The third broke in half, with the snout seized in the body. I think the car is trying to tell me something ... something like "buy me a new pump!" ... but I can't quite hear it, yet.
