Does anyone know the background of this car or know the previous owner? Trying to find out what all he/she did to it. Thanks!
That's a good question, I have no idea who's the previous owner of that one.

The D being for douchebag right I'm just helping a friend out I'd personally never drive one unless I was pulling stuff all the time

I wish I could check it out for ya but I'm pretty far away from that location. It's got an aftermarket exhaust manifold so chances are it's got a non oem turbo. I would call and have them e-mail you photos of the turbo

silverofs, those are some harsh words dude. Are you sure you're looking at the same evo as us?

I can't help but to notice hostility from you on the utah pace forums as well. I don't think I know you or have met you before, but if I offended you in any way; I do apologize as I can guarantee that was most likely not my intent.

definitely not a stock manifold. but from where the aftermarket intake & filter and stock bov are located seems to me that it is going to be stock turbo. my guess is that the manifold is a cheap DC/meagan racing manifold or a knock off from ebay.

If someone nearby Bountiful is willing take it look at it, please let me know. Hate to fly out there and find out its a lemon or it breaks down in middle of I80 would greatly appreciate it. The dealer mentioned cams (unknown which ones), exhaust w/ high flow cat. They dont know about the turbo, tune map, etc..

I'd be happy to go up and test drive it and look at it but that's about all I could do. So if someone can do this and look at the map and such for you that will be best. And really give you a pretty clear picture of the car.

Odd they know it has cams but not which ones unless it has a lopy idle and they somehow know that (should) indicate it has big cams.

Whoops i meant that is a stock turbo you can tell how the runners are setup. You don't need to show me a stock manifold I just might know what one looks like. I'm just a dick what can I say lol
