geoff I see you are using the evo x a arms, would there be a problem with the front axle, as I thought that evo x used a longger axle compare to the evo 7-9 ?

Hi everyone thanks for the feedback - we are really excited to be in this new shop, it will allow us to step our game up in everything we do. expect big things from Full-Race in 2012 and beyond!!

garageRM - I do not know that answer yet - Robispec tells me it works fine? SSE says I will need custom axles.

I have some spare evo 8/9 axles i dont mind breaking, so it will be a fun experiment. Driveshaft shop will make the longer front axle and Full-Race will sell them if that becomes necessary to properly do the evoX LCA swap

we have 4 events coming up including SEMA, the kit will be on display and ill post pics up afterwards:

-oct 1/2 borgwarner shootout @ Raceway Park - Englishtown, NJ
-oct 8, Mitsubishi Owners Day - Camden, NJ
-oct 15, EVO vs STI @ Raceway Park - Englishtown, NJ
-Nov 1-4 SEMA - Las Vegas, NV

again - the IWG efr turbo does require the evo6 style radiator with offset upper hose. Full-Race is working to have something very high quality and affordable to compliment this kit
