New Toys for my project evo

The new greddy fmic needs NO CUTTING or modifying of the stock front bumper. Great fitment and doesn't induce any extra lag. Tune in next week for pics of more toys.



This is going on next week



some more pics here:

I was at RZ the day the FMIC was installed. It's such a coincidence that everytime I show up at RZ, you're having something installed. Looks good. Did you feel a difference after the FM?

Honestly? The car now officially feels like a legit 12 second daily driver. (no proof yet) It feels WAY faster than my mr2 turbo which ran mid 13's. The car really woke the fug up but to be fair, I did the fmic, the dynoflsh, and hyper ground earthing wires at the same time and I'm sure the ecu tune probably maximized the dp and cat back exhaust mod as well. Feels great..can't wait to get the car back from the paint shop.

Fitment was perfect and all the lines match up like stock....all we needed to do was trim a little on the inside in order to fit the bigger Greddy fmic. Quality of the bumper is unsurpassed.....I've dealt with dozens of usdm and jdm fiberglass body kit and the Gialla is one of the best!. The bumper was lighter than stock and even included all the underbody clips to install all the stock panels back on. And the carbon fiber brake ducts look like carbon fiber and resin on both sides and weighs nothing.


If anyone is in the market for an evo, I suggest you wait a few months. As soon as I attend a few shows this season and finish the writeups on this Jade Project evo...... I am putting this evo up for sale with all the mods included and installed. By the time I am finished, it will have about $8000 in DESIRABLE extras and I am selling it for $31K FIRM which includes the car.

Why? Because I want to get a head start on a new project car for next year...can't say the exact model but it will be mercedes and amg.

Intercooler

Where did you buy you greddy front mount? How much? What are the measurements? What is the intercooler type? So there is no cutting needed with this intercooler, its a direct fit? Nice evo keep up the good work?
