Why do you like it more? I'm right in that stage where the X is growing on me more and more.. I just don't see it being as fun as the VIII and IX though.


Good color

Good color
It will 10X more fun

The evo 9 felt like a go kart which is not bad but I don't want to be driving a go kart around town.

Waiting on a few more Carbon Fiber parts to give it that killer look.

You installed the Intercooler couplers incorrectly.... The coupler with the "buldge" is supposed to be inbetween the the upper intercooler pipe, not on the intercooler itself.

Where you have it now is kinda pointless because that is a stationary area because that section of the pipe is bolted to the frame... that buldge in the couple is so it gives a little more flex to deal with the engine moving due to torque, vibrations, etc...

Just a heads up.

That color combo has been around since Jesus was a baby (blue/gold wheels). Get some Black or Dark-Grey wheels. Or better yet Chrome Black

I going to leave the rim's color for last but it will probably end up powder coated matt black.
