do some searches on this subject, it has been explained many times. Basically with the RRM kit, they recircularte the air from the BOV for better power in better MPG. Guess tests were done and even though the BOV is a little quiter the results were dramtically better in the recirculation for this application.

since the lancer uses a mass airflow sensor you need to have it recirculate to have a perfect idle and blah blah blah search this site for more info.

100% aluminum radiators offer like 30-50% more cooling efficiency than stock radiators since the stock ones are a mixed metal, something like 70% copper / 30% aluminum or something i don't really know.

that things looks really nice all polished up and all, kontras is the perfect example of, if your gonna do it, do it right! the only thing your missing now is a full new coilover setup and upgraded rear disc brakes, then you would just about be god, and after that, a full awd conversion HAHA

yeah the car is pretty much done, like i said before I am getting some coilovers pretty soon and I already have the front disc upgrade and i have the rear conversion sitting here in my room. I just gotta put the damn thing on!

After that I am done for the most part. I will be working on doing the Stage 2 Turbo with RRM VERY soon too. Since i am like 90% there already with it. Just gotta work on some fuel setups with the GReddy Emanage and turn up the boost to get some more power out of this baby!!!

you still need a custom radiator hose too... its basically the only hose you have there that isnt colored to the rest.. at least out of the hoses you can change without problems!

yeah Vivid Racing sells the Samco hoses for the Evo 8 that will fit the Lancer too, so i might pick some up, but they dont have white, so we will see what color i might just get!
