I've thought about doing this--but going with most lips requires buying that stock black piece along the front, which you obviously did.

I'm going to try the APR splitter for now but if it is too annoying (from a service perspective) then I may end up going this way.

 

Guess what radiator I pulled to replace with CBRD?

I had some less than stellar results at the track so I wanted something that would cool much better and CBRD seemed to be the best on the market.

 

Here is final engine bay shot after the new rad and Samco hoses. Getting rid of the blue hoses helped so much in terms of aesthetics in the engine bay.

 

yay peter.

that engine bay looks awesome.

did u install a water temp gauge while you were at it? or u gonna trust the radiator company?

(are you going out to BW this sat for industry day?)

 

I've already got the all the necessary gauges installed (check a couple pages back!) so Im ready to go!

And yeah Ill be there on Saturday, I assume you'll be coming out as well.

 

nice to meet you Pete! sweet stuff always!!!

Mark

 

Pete your cars is juste awesome your are a very lucky man to have a car like this

 

did you have to shave the aem box to make the lower ams intercooler pipe fit?

 

clean

 

No, the only problem was with the stock mounting bracket for the air box, I had to trim it to make it fit the lower AMS hard pipe otherwise the AEM box fit perfectly.

 

I finally had a chance to test my new RE30's shod with 275/35R18 Falken RT-615 K's at the track. Great tires by the way! They provide a lot of grip with some very predictable feedback. Unfortunately it got really hot as the day wore on and the tires started going away after 5-6 laps. Can't blame them though, the Evo is such a heavy pig. I'm hoping to get some NT01s and crack the sub 2:00 minute mark at BW.








And just recently I added a Whiteline rear sway bar to the car. I was going to do the front one until I realized it meant dropping the whole subframe! No thanks.









Also swapped my trans fluid with some AMSOIL gear oil hoping that the grinding will lessen. So far its been a little better but not much.

 

damn your evo is amazing! Looks even better with the RE30s

 

im excited for the new evo man i cant wait to get back to the states and get one..my homie rags on me cause he wants a ix but i really like the Xs man...very nice upgrade path its turning into a sick ride man

 

dam, car looks great
that wifi wideband is ****in cool too

 

what size sways did you upgrade to?
