Is your Washer/Dryer close to the garage?
Gah, I was wrong again. A wheel guru told me that and I trusted his opinion.

The dryer room is the closest room to the front door (which is closest to the garage), other than the living room. So, comparatively speaking, it's about as close to the garage as it's gonna get.

I like all Evo's, so I wanted to combine my favorite parts from all of the cars into one vehicle! My interior is the same way!

I would say a 100ft cord would cover it, that way you'd have room to move around in the garage, as my bay is the far bay.

My friend has an Eastwood roller that he lets my friends and I use whenever, and I have my own heat gun!

It's one of my favorite appearance mods for these cars, for sure.

On a sweeter note......................


THE EVO RUNS

Thanks to JohnBradley (Aaron)'s SD start up/break in tune, she runs great. Did the 20 minute idle and changed the oil. Normal break in metal, but nearly nothing on the magnetic plug.

As soon as I can throw some insurance back on it I'll go out for my 50 mile drive and seat the rings.

Did my 50 mile break in drive, and it went very well! I accidentally hit about 7# of boost for a split second and hit a cut, but once I shut the car down and restarted her it was fine.

Oil pressure is great and consistent, fuel pressure is at 40PSI, and coolant temp is right where it should be.

Going to be logging all this week!

The only thing I'm battling is a high idle, around 1400.

Aaron set it to about 1050 via the tune, I messed with the TPS and that changed nothing, I messed with the idle screw and that did nothing.

I also went over ALL vacuum lines and found no leaks!

I did change the scaling a bit, and that helped a bit, but still didn't bring it down enough.

I'm thinking my cam timing is still off a degree or so.

What is your cam timing at? That is still one of the only questions and concerns I have about doing on mine. I have heard so many different ways people are setting them to.

I have mine each 2 degrees advanced and I think I need to go one or two more. There are 10 million different things people say. Check out this thread I made a little while back. I literally can't even tell you what's right, as it's still the most unclear thing ever.

Check out this thread I started to confuse yourself more:

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...ctly-time.html

Before I do any WOT tuning, I'm going to most likely take my car to CBRD and get them to actually "degree" the motor, as there is no other way to truly find out what is correct.

Thanks, man! I hate most Apexi Silver cars, so I was on a mission to make myself pleased with the color of my car . I'm satisfied with the way it turned out.

The only other thing I've been thinking is........A black roof on a silver car.
