Nice test. Results that follow what science predicts... go figure

Great test! Thanks for taking the time to do it. I hope somebody will send you a modded headlight to test.

a little off topic, but the two pop fasteners or whatever that hold the intake snorkel in is that something I could piece out at autozone? I tried going to the mitsu dealer to get them and they obviously don't have them and I don't feel like ordering it.

If you have the undertray off and laying around, you can use a couple fasteners from it.

All pulls were 3rd gear. Ill put that info in the OP.

Looks good man...I'm surprised you got that to fit like that with the ACD pump/res, etc...I didn't realize the Evo 8 bumper had that black cover/panel in front of the ACD pump...The IX bumper doesn't have that...I would much rather have that...Looks like it would make it funnel air better into the vac tube...
