Like lancer2show said, the 16G6 turbo from the Evo is both oil and water cooled. For us Lancers we tap the heaters lines coming from the firewall for a coolant source and return. You can cut them, add a tee fitting and there you go.

I'm not surprised at all that an SRT-4 with bolt-ons can beat stock evos, hell a stock SRT-4 can beat evos from a roll since they have the advantage of FWD in that situation. I wouldn't call their turbo small, it's bigger than mine that's for sure. They shouldn't spool in a parking lot or in reverse since the loads aren't high enough, I don't reach full boost in first or second for that very reason.

just a little correction.. SRT-4s are AWD too..
