Does anyone know what size fuel tank will be in the new model? I am hoping it will get to at least DSM size...

Where does the long rubber hose run from the BOV, I'm assuming back into the intercooler piping but it's hard to tell from those pics. Anyway it looks like a very long run.

Actually I've had the head 1ft on top of the turbo under the hood. There is nothing else but the exhaust after the engine.

The turbo is accessible from under the car I beleive quite easily...

I like having the battery in the trunk, helps make the car not as nose heavy

the interior is a massive improvement. i actually like the inside of my cabin to have at least a certain level of ambience. this is not achieved with cheap plastics that should be used on budget priced toys.

Thanks for posting the pics. First glance makes me even more glad I bought an EVO IX! But as we learn more that could change.... will see.
