Almost all done.

My buddy who starts my exhaust started dicking me around. Didn't touch it for two weeks straight after he fabbed the downpipe and the cat and the straight piece.

Big thanks to Mko who bailed me out. He came over with his welder on Sunday and banged it all out. Just need to finish the hangers and straighten up the muffler and weld the bungs for the sensors.

After that it's gauges and all done.

Just hope that Marc or isaurio come through with a tune to get it running.

Wideband sensor installed.
Just need to wire up my gauges
Get some vacuum lines for the gauge and bov and a tune.
Ordering a new slave and gonna try to bleed the clutch again. Still no pressure in my pedal.

It's been a while. No updates and no photos.

Marc spent a couples of hours tonight editing my tunes and sending it to me. Big thanks to him. Initially my car was running too rich. Then we got it to mid 13s but the idle was too high. The car sounds really nice though.

Still need to adjust my clutch pedal and raise the rear a lil bit.

Few more days and I am hoping to be driving this baby to break the clutch in.

Pics soon I promise.

if u are installing the evo fuel rail then u need to get shorted bolts. the original bolts are m8x2.25" i bought 1.75" and those were still long but they worked so i say get 1.5"

oh and i changed the engine bay color once again but this is the last time i change it lol

i didn't snap any pics of the rail installed, i will next time im working on it

turbo and manifold and wastegate installed. radiator fan removed. ordered a slim fan
