aww yeah! Turbo is so big I literally can only fit 4 sheets of paper between the compressor housing and the radiator with no fans on it. I have yet to make a pull on it though :( damn you snow storm!

Stock Evo X turbo, Grimmspeed 3-Port EBCS, test-pipe, exhaust, intake, UICP.
Tuned for repeatable death dealing! :) three back to back pulls on the stock intercooler.
I think this is like my 16-20th evo x I've tuned -___- LOL

Heck yeah man they are definitely worth it on the evo xQuote:

Thanks man! I'm definitely going to tint it. Which reminds me I need to order the precut sheets and do it. I thought about doing that blackout on the interior but I think I actually like the tan. A little color inside the black cloak and the tan disappears at night. so tint it is!Quote:

agreed! I only made it this long because it was winter. Today hit 77 degrees and I was like this aint gonna work LOL
What is the benefit of the egr delete?? And what aluminum reservoir is that??
Shit it was 97 yesterday and today. A/c blowin in the cars and at home.

Lower intake temps, less prone to vacuum leaks, mine failed threw a P0401 and I said screw buying another egr for $70 another when the blockoff plate is $10 shipped. The aluminum reservoir is from ebay $30 shipped and about $100 less than most of what I see out there with the same quality. Welds are tight and its seriously solid. Its comparable to the mishimoto unitQuote:

Yep it's a 4g64 in those bad boys or a 4g63 as well. Same egr port.
that looks boss, plain and simple. hanging out to see this on some proper wheels lol
Thanks man! I'm glad you suggested it haha. I'm rockin it stateside now :)Quote:

Ahh ok didn't know that either. Doesn't the EGR delete throw a code?Quote:

whats that lip
The coolant goes back to the system through a nipple on the water pipeQuote:

That lip really sets it off. Been thinking of doing the same, but have been putting it off to use my money for stuff I for sure want/need for the car. Not to mention fear of it not coming out as good as yours and paulie's lol. You guys just using double stick tape or/and screws?
Thanks bro! It really was about $25 entirely. Less for me since I already had the double side sticky tape.Quote:

Used my power drill all the way around putting in the screws and washers. Once one side is lined up its just matching up and moving down the line. really easy!
Nice, thanks man
For sure manQuote:

Like people were starring when I was rolling down the street driving like a normal motorist.
Soldered/wired up/installed a second slim radiator fan (yeah I sound like a jet at idle now)
Took it home and installed the new coolant reservoir and went to tighten the hose to the barb next to the radiator car and the barb straight fell off >:-| RAWR!!!! I had a turrets moment right then and there. Ordered an aluminum 2bar civic half radiator, evo torque solutions radiator stay, aluminum bumper quick releases like my evo. In the meanwhile I'll probably get another stocker from a junkyard tomorrow.
Hmm, never seen a radiator break there, I guess it becomes a weak point over time.
Yeah it was weird. Usually they crack along the top or something. Ah well.
Whats a egr delete?
The EGR valve controls a small passageway between the intake and exhaust manifolds. When the valve opens, intake vacuum draws exhaust through the valve. This dilutes the incoming air/fuel mixture and has a quenching effect on combustion temperatures which keeps NOX within acceptable limits.Quote:

So went to the junk yard and pulled another radiator with the wife.
Threw it back in and put my slim fans back on today. The old one was HIDEOUS on the inside.
Drove the car to the gas station and back and the car pulls and extra 4 in/hg vacuum. I was cruising on 20! holy crap if I was at sea level i would be passed 20 that is going to be awesome for gas mileage. people were saying that egr delete makes you waste a little more gas. maybe on a stock tune. lol
Just take the EVAP also.
I'm tempted to but I dont want to pull it cause its just going to have to go in come emissions time. It aint broke I aint fixing it right now :PQuote:

The engine bay with the coolant reservoir. So stealthy! I used orange line that matches the ksports perfectly to run from the radiator to the reservoir. I like the pop and it ties the front of the bay to the back.

...and the back :)

Also update on the whole radiator thing. With a 10" slim fan and a 7" slim fan my coolant temp never hits half way lol. Each fan flows 1730 cfm.
Car staying as cool as it looks..also nothing like surprising someone being annoying starving for attention only for them to fall back and never get beside you lol
