Nice stock route piping. It's too bad ETS doesn't offer that with the tial flange, just as you have it on your car. I bet it would sell. I know I'd buy it.

Problem is fitment. It's way too close to make it right on every car. The top of the port on the blow off valve almost touches the battery. We could just call it touching because I doubt I can stick a piece of paper between the two. When placing the valve on the opposite side the radiator hose is in the way and it's really cluttered. I'm eventually going to switch over to a short route and relocate the battery to the trunk. We do have an option if you want this setup and that is to send the pipe w/o flange welded and let you do the welding. Placement is REALLY tight though and I would recommend it. I should have placed the blow off valve on the lower section of the pipe haha.

Would there be any issue with placing the bov on the lower section of the pipe facing toward the transmitting? Fitment would be great, and would fit with any intake that I've seen.

I don't see a problem with this, we just don't have it jigged.

I REALLY like your car. Love a red RS.

Those catch cans are great. You just helped me make my decision on which cans to run. Very clean mounting solution.

The radium piece is REALLY nice. The gauge is awesome. Install was a breeze.

Did you do the direct oem replacement or the aftermarket?

I did the direct OEM replacement, since i'm not using an aftermarket FPR.

Sad news guys... I decided to sell the car.

The car made a consistent 298/298 @ 23 psi on 91. I was running the factory O2 housing and the smaller evo hot side. The car did make 320 around 25 psi.

I couldn't let the car go to waste... This poor Evo literally sat and sat and i'm happy to say the new owner who purchased it will put it to use on the auto x course as well as the road course.

Thanks!

Michael

The RS model was a little raw for me. My next Evo will be a SSL/SE Evo 9 for sure.
