We're performing a gauge installation, pre-dyno inspection and getting this Evo X ready for a tune later this week.



A front Axle swap on this Evo 8.



The finishing touches are going in to this car's set up. New intercooler pipes are being fabricated.



The exhaust manifold is getting welded together after test fitting and deciding wastegate location.



Our fabricator just got his Evo 5 valve cover delivered from Ireland.



We just installed a freshly rebuild engine into this Evo.



The Porsche is waiting for tuning.



This 997 turbo is getting some basic maintenance.

With the absence of Evo Empire, we decided to move the thread here for our customers and fans.

We're putting the final touches on this 2G and we'll fire her up later today.
Dyno numbers and video coming soon!





The engine rebuild on another Evo is finished and she's ready for pick up.



Some further progress was made on the white Evo 9. The manifold is in, UICP and LICP are all finished up. We've got a bit more work to do before she gets tuned including some powder coating.











More updates tomorrow!

The Evo will have a built 2.4 liter motor and a Precision Turbo and Engine 6466 ceramic ball bearing turbo along with some other goodies. I'll grab photos along the way and update the thread as we go along.
