Side mount intercoolers are for side mounting.

im not trying to sound mean but wtf are you talking about thats not even close to a side mount intercooler that IC is like 37x8x5 its fricken huge. and if your referring to the 2008 photo that is also a FMIC both inlet and outlet are on the same side so it sits funny but that IC is out look at the new one.

its a custom kit they did for the eclipse im actually selling the rear end of it and the side skirts idk if they would fit your car though :-p

you can be as mean as you want. I was talking about the first one cause its a side mount that ebay told you is a front mount. vertical fins, both in and out on the same side and its about 7 inch's long, classification SIDE MOUNT.

And a 8x37x5 is a big ass core which makes up for its lack of height.

i dont want to argue in my thread but there is no way that first IC is a side mount and the fact that it says spearco in IC itself even when i search for that IC it came up as a FMIC not a SMIC.

buy anyways that IC i have now is plenty big for the 3g eclipse.

it is clean and pretty impressive under the hood.. and mitch that is a front mount. my buddy has one like that on his colt.. and trust me there is no way to side mount it.. i dont get why they put the fins that way as ive seen similar fmic with the fins horizontal, but looks good

10-31-2010, 02:05 PM
well right now im in the process of tuning the evo 8 ecu so its holding up great hahah havent been able to drive it besides in the parking lot i need a vacuum pump becuase the stage 3 cam draws a shit ton of vacuum and my break are shit lol.

and yes that IC is a big imporvment i love it. i cant wait till i can actually drive my car down the street. but since its winter time soon i dont think i will be doing much maybe just a paint job until next year. :(

its a evo 8 HAFE manifold custom made spacer and flange CNC machine cut 1 or 1 hahaha i got the hook ups person who made it said it would of cost about 800$ if not more to make made from a huge chunk of steel.

The engine bay is great. I dont like the body kit. I would have kept the stock bumpers and put a wingswest lip kit and the wingswest v line spoiler. Nice work though.

First off, He's jerking you around if he meant that seriously. Steel is super cheap. A block of steel big enough to cut that spacer out of is about $60-70 at most, maybe $150 if its stainless. Then maybe another $200-$250 to cut it so your talking $400 max. You could probably have anyone who makes 4G63 exhaust manifold flanges to cut you one since they would already have a CNC program to cut it, all they would need to adjust is the material thickness values in the software, the other variables would be the same.

Secondly. AWESOME Setup! It looks really clean and well thought out.

What type of stage 3 cam is that RPW? Isnt it made for turbo? Typically a more aggressive cam will cause the car to make LESS vacuum at idle. When I switched out my HKS 272's for GSC S2's my vacuum went down about 3-4mm/hg. It could be possible your cam timing is off a bit, aftermarket cams should be degreed using a degree wheel for precise accuracy. I know from other users experiences on EVOM that the GSC's need to be about 4-5 degrees retarded to be at their true " 0 " mark. I installed them normal and was pulling about 21mm/hg and after I retarded them to -4/-4 I was at 18mm/hg

yea its an RPW stage 3 turbo cam and damn it takes vacuum im addiing a pump to help out aswell. i hooked up a vac gauge im at about 18 stock is like 30 i think.

im still working on the tune its been prolly a month since i have worked on my car kunal a tuner on evom was supposed to come out but just blew me off was paying $$$ and everything what a pos.

looks good but no side skirts and rear lip/difuser? the front just looks so low and big compared to the rest of the car's bottom half. the old rear might look good if you painted or wrapped the center section black or cf, it fit the bulkiness of the front bumper well.

I like the change it barely looks like a mitsu anymore, how much vibration are you seeing with the trans and side mount?
