What, you guys aren't a fan of my rubber one? lol

I'll get a new one when my HKS kit comes in.

I see you are ordering an HKS BOV. In my opinion, those are garbage for the EVO X. I used to have an HKS VTA BOV and it sounded nice but created compressor surge. The HKS BOV has two stages of release one under low boost and one under high boost and sometimes it closes off before it needs to and creates compressor surge. In my experience, the EVO X's do not like the VTA BOV's too much. Recirculating setups are better on the X plus you will still be able to hear the blow off even during recirc. When I had the HKS, I took it to a tuning shop that works on mainly EVO's and they tried to give me the best performance with that HKS but it did no good. An adjustable BOV is the way to go. I have the Forge BOV and love it.

Thank you for the info GSR, I appreciate it, as I would rather my evo run right than anything else. I'll look at other options.

do not go hks..like stated, our cars do not like to be vented to atmosphere, recirculated bov's are the best for our cars. Check out tial bov's, they probably make the best bov's out there. They are a little bit pricier but they are worth it!

Thanks guys. Just installed an AMS upper intercooler pipe tonight. Nothing like some good ol wrenching after a long days work.

Skyseer - they look a lot more like Volk Racing wheels though, because they are Volk Racing wheels.

Thanks guys. I was in the market for an evo for years, I looked on and off, and when I saw this GSR with the white SL's, I knew it had to be mine! Love the white on white!

I thought TE37 Sl's didn't come with centercaps? And that the stem was supposed to line up with the lug hole?

The SL's don't come with center caps, those center caps are the bottoms of soda cans, and I used hot glue to secure them. They fit perfectly, cost nothing, and look like actual center caps

The side skirts are stock but the extensions are aftermarket. Once you have your suspension figured out look into a JDP front lip if it matches the extensions and you want a front lip. I wouldn't recommend getting it if you're bottoming out because it will easily be cracked/destroyed.
