Its a guy out of Philly......I'm test fitting them for him (he doesn't have access to an evo). If they work he will have the up on his site for sale. I will let you know soon as I try them.....they are very well priced under $40.00 for a complete set (includes nuts).

 

WOW! Definetly let me know! I would love that....Hate the rusty stock bolts!
Keep me informed.

 

Will do.....

 

This is your PSA for today... When they tell you to tighten the **** out of you your t-bolt clamps, do it!

This is the 2nd time this happened to me and in the same spot I thought it was going to be a nice 2nd gear pull down the on ramp. Man was I wrong. Although, I do have to say AAA did come in about 20 minutes and the driver did everything he could to not damage the car so that was a relief.





BTW, Travis, where did you get those huge t-bolt clamps again? I think I need an upgrade.

 

Sorry to see that Dan, thank goodness for AAA!

Yeah crank the t-bolts down, don't be scared......you aren't going to hurt anything. I make my clamps my b*tch, I don't care what others say

McMaster Carr.....if your at the meet this weekend I can get you setup with sizes and email you what to order, but you don't have stock piping so my current list wont work for you so I need to double check your piping size w/couplers.

 

i always hate seeing an evo on a flatbed.

at least it was nothing serious.

 

Yeah that would be good. I don't want it to happen for a 3rd time, obviously. Last time I just fixed it myself on the side of the road but this time everything was working against me, I swear . The car is lower, I had just put the under tray back on, I had no tools, I was in work clothes, the ground was muddy...

I just want to get it fixed for good this time so I don't have to worry about it.

 

I know... This is the first time I've needed one but I just had to get a picture although the driver didn't think it was amusing

 

Yea if you get some good mcmaster clamps and crank them down you wont have any issues......Make sure after installation you test them to like 30+ psi with air compressor, one: to check any leaks and two: if nothing blow apart then your fine at 23 psi. Another tip is to re-tighten after a week or two, never hurts

Should of had him pose with a thumbs-up.... It could have made the pictures even better

 

ohhhh I remember the day Dan....how long will yours be out for?

 

Hey Justin, I have a brand new aftermarket hotside to O2 housing gasket if you need it. Also be prepared to break some bolts. I have all kinds of extra hardware. Let me know if you need anything.

 

On the Tbolts, yeah you want to crank them down good. But I have seen some bent pipes due to extremely overtightened clamps. Just don't go all crazy.

 

awesome, thanks Brian. i may have to take you up on that.

i don't think i will be doing the install myself though. my plan is to wait till i get a ported/coated exhaust manifold, and then take it to CBRD and have them install it and tune it.

however, i am impatient, and may give it a try myself.

 

here is the o2 housing by the way, in case anyone is thinking of ordering one.

got it from PPI. it's a Megan Racing housing covered with Swayntech Cermic Coating. was just under $230 shipped.

i want to clean up the interior weld seams on it, they are a little sloppy, but overall i am very happy with it.

*Edit* - it was shipped very fast too. i ordered it last tuesday the 27th at like 9pm, and it was here yesterday.

 

Well I had it towed to my house, so as soon as I am not lazy I'll go out and re attach everything.
