No Tom, not yet. I have to pick up my valve cover from getting powder coated tomorrow afternoon. I should have that ROM fired up tomorrow evening or early Tuesday morning at the latest. I changed the oil and thinking about doing the spark plugs since things are open. That knock was pretty strange though in that last run. I am liking how things are progressing so far on 91-octane. I would like to do everything WITHOUT the double pumper in order to do a good comparison with both fuels against the EF4 since I am using the exact same road. If I am not mistaken, we stopped the 91-octane tune at 24PSI and the E85 tune at 32PSI. I also added the fuel injector duty cycle with EVO Scan to see where I am with the single fuel pump.

 

sweet build!

 

Thanks, my friend.

 

I am thinking about taking out my windshield wiper reservoir and installing a larger K&N filter (RU-5111).

Looking good and great choice in oils sir!

Took mine out, mine was for the intercooler though. Free up a ton of space!

 

Thanks, my friend. I really appreciate it.

Not to mention that it makes the engine bay look more beastly.

 

That's the intercooler sprayer tank. the wiper tank is in the trunk Levar lol.

I can get you the same filter as i got on my evo if you can source a 4" intake pipe like i have.. 4" you'll gain more power on SD.

JMFAB made my intake pipe.

 

be careful with the powder coated valve cover. make sure its cleaned out so you dont ruin engine with powder coat debri.

 

I made sure that everything was nice and clean before I put it back on. I had to put a dab of sealant on each of the four "cylinder seals" as those jokers kept falling off as I put the cover back on.

 

Oh boy! Talking about a shotgun blast of the obvious and a rookie moment, my friend. For all of these years, I thought it was the windshield wiper fluid reservoir and the one in the back was for the back window. Dang! I wonder how many times I have made that statement not to mention to people that I speak "EVO" to. What is even worse is that no one ever bothered to correct me until now. Dang!

As for the intake set up, I was looking at this along with a 3-4" reducer.

LOL, I assumed the same thing when I first got my EVO. I didn't figure it out until I used the washer and realized that the motor noise was coming from the trunk!

 

BTW - how do you like those torque motor mounts? I've been staying away from those mounts due to the car being a DD and wanted to keep the vibrations down...

 

I love them, my friend. I do not experience any vibrations at all.

 

I noticed that awhile back but never bothered to say anything.

Oh, and I run the JMFab piece on mine like Tom, just in 3". It's a very nice piece. And also, the Amsoil filter flows a bit better than the K&N.

It's P/N: 3090 for the 3"

and 4090 for the 4"
