[UWNTSM] 2008 Evolution X from NZ

Hey Guys, thought id post my pics of my X. Owned it for about 4 months - I brought it completely stock standard.

Currently sits just short of 400hp on Work Mesiter S1 18x10 + 15 on 225/35/19 rubbers.

Have just ordered a HKS 2.2L Stroker kit, will run 270 odd Tomei Cams and a Garrett GTX3076r turbo.

Fun times.

Damn that gauge pod might look amazing if we can see some better pics of it installed

I guess you had to remove the passenger side airbag to install the gauge pod?

Moar pics!!!

I've always loved the Blitz gauge pod. Just wish it came with a LHD option.

Nice! Fitment is pretty good. Too bad they don't make one for the LHD cars.
