Well just off the phone with Eric, he is hoping to get into the place tomorrow to finish the housing. If not, then it won't be done... Also Greg did ship the cams, however I have not spoke to Aaron to make sure he got them.

that blue on the dash does look really good in those pics. I didnt realize the blue was identical color as your outside color.. that helps a lot. With that valve cover combo + valve cover you're gonna need to ditch the stock coolant overflow tank, it looks so bad. I like that a lot, you did a good job with color matching.

mine would match to if it wasnt for the damn blue timing belt. you got the zaklee clear cover right? that will look great. time to ditch coolant overflow tho, the valve cover has so much bling goin on its making the overflow tank look lost over there.

ya i know you got it, cant see it good from that last pic tho. that manifold makes the turbo show 100%. you can barely see it on stocker compared to that... im curious to see how that manifold performs in low/mid/high areas. how long until its all ready for tune? wing looks good with the carbon fiber trunk also + jdm rear.

that manifold uses same specs as full race right?

proper transition from the port to runner and also implement a longer low angle merge collector
1-1/2" at the flange transition to 1-1/4
full size flange, no small port like some
Runner 1 ~ 11"
Runner 4 ~ 11.75"

Runner 2 ~ 12.75"
Runner 3 ~ 12.75

thanks im glad you love my evos *** haaa
