Odd hvac issue

Hey guys,

I noticed something strange as its gotten warmer out. My evo seems the vent hot air into the cabin when the blower is off and it's turned all the way to cool, it's not a strong hot air blowing, just enough to notice. Thanks guys

It's because your AC is off, and you have your system set to "fresh air" as in, not recirculated. So you are getting warm air from outside passing over the engine and enetering your cabin.

Press the recirculation button for your concern to stop. Off the top of my head, I believe it's next to the rear defrost and A/C buttons. It should look like a car with a sort of "recycle" circle around it. If you still don't get it, open your owners manual.
