Yup great DD cant complain, Yup FP4R, and as long as they keep pulling up top ill be happy, expecting big things out of them especially after the wait. Now i have a ton of work ahead, valvesping and retainer install, cams, 1x1 headstud method, lifter bleeding, going to be a long day. Wish i had you and jason around to help.

PS those slicks be a great xmas gift

I would help ya man, but where u live is a little bit of a hike hahaha. Sounds like a lot of work but thats the best part about building a car Slicks are yours, getting pricing on shipping after work. Need to call and give them the dimensions.

Yea i know, its quite a hike, and not a very exciting one either, all highway with not much to look at.

I love the work part, nothing is on my mind, no worries, no problems, just me and the car. Evo fights me some days, but most days i win Just want to make sure my timing doesnt want to jump. Im deciding if i should pull the head or not. Thoughts?

Yea the Evo fights me too, mostly all of us. Shes a pain but she cooperates most of the time. I would pull the head off if needed to. If not i would just leave it but that is up to u bud!

She does coopereate most the time, makes me want to throw tools sometimes lol but for the most part i havent had any problems, the biggest fight so far was breaking the stock fuel feed line loose, TALK about a PITA! Something so easy, guess i cant complain as that has been the only complaint.

I dont think it will be neccessary as pulling the head will cause me to only want to spend more $$$$ and budget is getting tight.

who did head work for your evo, the acutal porting, Devin?

Yea I wouldnt pull the head off unless its needed to. Thats extra time and cash. Terry @ Class one out here in illinois did my Evo 9 head and my Evo 8 head thats on the car now. He did full porting on it and he did a great job

That Hotside is sick! Looks Great. How much does that cost and how much does it keep temps down? Im trying to push for stock turbo record and hitting 9s on stock turbo so im kind of curious, funds are getting tight, but if its worth it i might b able to squeeze it into the build
