Im going to take my car to the shop tomorrow hopefully and have that bumper done, as in the crack fixed and it repainted and the works. Im also waiting on a lip. I got one of those VIS or whatever ones off ebay, so hopefully it should get here in the next couple of days and I will have the bumper done and get that installed

Then, it goes back on the market to sell. I wanna build the whole drivetrain in my MR, and this darn evo is holding me back lol.

How can noone want it for 17000? Thats insane.

No alarm :/

And turns out some of you were right, it was NOT STOLEN but backed into and ripped off or something and probably thrown who knows where..

I never noticed until today when I went to inspect it before I left it at the shop, that my intercooler side was smashed in and then pulled out by something to make it look not damaged. I also havent shifted over 3k for the last few days. So I took it out and hit a little harder and right at 4500K the boost just drops and engine slows.

I need a new intercooler.


Now Im pissed off and not laughing at this. F@#$EN douche bags hit my car, took my bumper, and ran off.
Hell with the bumper but the intercoolers are EXPENSIVE

report it to your insurance company as a hit and run. then request for them to give you a check after you get your estimate. a IX bumper is $812, the lip is $232, the stock intercooler is over $800. they will also pay you for time cost to paint, paint supplies, etc etc etc. you could probably get somewhere id say around $4200 (i know this from experience....twice with two diff evo's, yes i have bad luck). then you could get the AMS/ETS intercooler for less than $700 and then have all that money left over for the bumper/painting, etc etc. good luck man!
