Interesting looking manifold...

And assuming this is not to be confused with Chris's Evo but another black Evo, and is this saying your shop Evo is now a 2.3 and a 45r?

Not to sound cynical, because it looks like a hell of a build, but basically this car's going to be a dyno queen/drag car, right?

Do you have heat issues with the GT45R and mini radiator? I'd imagine you would if it were a daily driver. As a track car/dyno breaker I could see it being somewhat less of an issue.

Chris from FL also has a small radiator and there are not cooling issues.

A radiator much like a Front mount doesnt just get its cooling atributes from its size but from its construction. We have never had a problem

This is not Chris' Black Evo from FL. This is another one.

At least it has enough power to blow away anybody that makes a comment about how it looks.

I wish a more stockish looking Evo would be taking over the new record. The whole sport compact car community is going to see this car, and automatically associate it with the general Evo community, since it is going to be the new leader of the pack.

Either that, or an EvoDave lookin car .

what does that supposed to mean?
