until i get my parts im just trying to do little things here and there. polished my intercooler piping, radiator and intercooler. Also painted my 02 housing, was going to do my manifold but i have to wait until i get it back from being ported. painted my radiator fan frame because it was ugly and rusted lol.









and heres my car i sold for my EVO, and yes i do miss it but im so happy i can drive to places now if i dont know the streets lol.

Honestly bud depending on what your power goal is determines the clutch. Got a friend that runs 2.2l making 800ish and he and I run exedy triple ceramettalic. Feel free to ask questions or what not ill help as much as you want to know

Thanks I appreciate that!! "Knowledge is Power". I really only plan on running in the 4+ area for now, not sure how much this setup will make that I'm going with but once I go with a bigger turbo mabe Precision 6262, FP black or green than closer to the 5's mark. I actually bought this clutch way before I spun a bearing and just havent put it on yet. I've read that the ACT 6 puck can hold up to around 700hp on some threads here on EvoM. Not sure if that is correct or not so im kind've hoping it is lol. Thanks again for your help.

Hey man, nice build, I live out here in Kissimme, maybe once my evo gets back from the shop we could set up a meet or something for Evo drivers in the Orlando/Kissimmee area!
