I was trying to think of ways that having a boxer or flat motor configuration would actually be a benefit (aside from a mechanics pay-check of course).

And the only thing that came up in my searches was if you had a flat 12 pumping out a few hundred fb of torque at high rpm.

Case in point: Alpha flat 12 used from the 177 back in the late 70's.


Or a H-16 BRM engine... but that would be hard to fit in a front engine configuration with room for kids.

 

hey guys do any of you know any reputable auto transporters? I am considering transporting an evo from San Diego up here to Washington

 

Any one local around the seattle area can install an air filter intake, walbro 255 , and MBC for me? Pm with price please, or can anyone recommend any shops with good price/work for me? thanks.

 

Well, you live in federal way, so the closest thing I could recommend would be XAS, but their work might be a little bit over priced/retarded. So, someone in fed way hit this boy up and help him out!

 

those are some fairly basic boltons, do em yourself and save some $$ they arent terribly difficult and there are how to's for all those probably.

 

well dang, too bad i wasn't still working at the last motorcycle dealer i was working at. we always referred customers to a company we used, i forgot who they are. i could always call them and ask who we used again actually, see if that might help ya.

 

Fly me down there and I'll drive her back up!

 

Agreed with Tyler - DIY. The air filter (I assume you mean cone filter) is nothing, and the walbro will get you nice and high, and still won't be difficult. The MBC is also easy and there are plenty of how-to's for that and the others. There might not be a how-to for the air filter as it is literally that easy - assuming you have everything (MAF, appropriate adapter if necessary, etc.).

If you choose not to DIY, Ryon does work close to that area I believe, but he'd have to chime in for clarification. The Drift Office is also not too far from you and assuming they aren't busy I'm sure they do all of that too.

 

yea we put my old fujita intake into angies car (tight fit but made it work) and the new coupler we picked up from shucks.

 

Holy crap, does that mean she has <gasp> modded her car?!?!

 

Now she has the slowest modded evo in the group. CONGRATS!

 

LOL you guys are mean

 

what? she knows how mean we are in person.......

If your 100% stock then you dont get any trash talk about power.... but now she's modding and the expectations rise proportionally.

Side note: Just dropped another $450 into a lawyer to defend my Neg2 ticket. But if it isnt dropped they apply that towards the ticket.

7 days until my court date for the ticket out on the Peninsula..... That one should be a breeze!

 

I know! You leave for a while and... you miss out on a lot!

Now he have lost his best wingman! Congrats!

Yeah, but they don't know how mean I can get in person

I miss a few days on here and this is what I come back to? Gees!

 

NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooo oooo

if you had been the "best" wingman then you would have helped me put that phone number in my phone correctly! Yet you let me mess that one up alllllll by myself.

I even checked the craigs list "missed connections"......... what a pitty
