History of my Evo

This is a quick thread of the stages of my Evo from the day I got her to today. I'll try to update it as things change.

The day I got her



The beginning of the clutch, flywheel, shep trans, and shep transfer case install. This was the first time I had ever done anything like this to the car myself. So it was definitely a learning experience.




TC out



Trans out



Old flywheel and clutch





New clutch that was great only for lockout



New Fidanza Flywheel



Old school pic of my brothers SR 240 and my Evo



IX Tails



EvoDave Blacked out headlights, AMS FMIC, Shearer Tubular Exhaust manifold



Look with the Enkeis



Picked up some MR BBS wheels a little later



DBA Drilled and slotted 1pc. rotors



O2 housing ending up cracking



Suicidal wildlife wanted to take my lip with it



Time to pull the motor for the old 2.3 to go in



Threw in some old HKS 280s



FIC 1250s



Aeromotive Fuel Rail



Solid mount



Decided to go with an Exedy Twin that never made it into the car



Had a mishap with the AMS stroker and it was pulled



Since I was done with AMS I decided to go with Buschur. New 2.0



ETS IC to replace the AMS one



Buschur LICP



Got the newer version of the Shearer manifold with the wastegate on the manifold instead of the O2.



Buschur Upper Pipe and Tial 50mm



Nisei Mini battery kit



Last years look



Buschur Double Pumper



Decided to go with the Haltech EMS



Exedy Triple and some other things here and there



40 psi boost gauge



AEM oil psi gauge



Upped the injectors to 2150s for my E85 setup



Went with bigger BF272 cams from Buschur



Picked up a Spark Tech C.O.P.



Rexpeed Type 1 Decklid



Got the Valvecover Powdercoated. You can see the FS635 Turbo a little bit.



Wingless look for a day



Rexpeed Installed



Quick wash







At the track





Another launch pic





I'll update this later with whats goin on with the car this time.

Thanks for the comments everybody and for the added pics. Lol Boostfiend, you made me want to start a thread of my own. Vipers, I've had quite a few people PM me with similar problems like mine dealing with AMS. Its water under the bridge for me now and I know who I buy and dont buy from now. It was definitely a learing experience.
