I had an epiphany last night about brake ducts, oil coolers, and ACD pumps. I'm now sure how I've designed.... the best brake ducting setup available for the Evo's.
With that in mind. I'm selling my oil cooler setup and brackets. Yes the Titanium brackets that weigh nothing and the oil cooler...and the lines. LMK if you're interested.

I might do this when I get the car back on the ground. Granted it will take me being under the hood of the car while trusting my buddy to push the brakes hard enough so the car won't move and try to crank the car in first gear. That should give us the Locked Rotor current and worst case scenario.
After that, we can try cranking the car in 1st and moving and see if I can't get a max. Finally, trying to grab the max from starting the car. Granted, built engines with lighter rotating assemblies will have lower starting current and it also depends if you have the neutral safety switch engaged. Pushing the clutch in will remove the load of the transmission and clutch from the starting load.

Looks great man and congrats on the incoming son!
Any insight on how you fixture your abrasive chop saw for cutting mandrel bends?
I've been using a milwaukee horizontal mount band saw with mixed results.

The crowded part (Seattle). I lived in Bellingham for about 4 months around 2000, loved it. Let me know if you stop down this way or if you are going to any events this summer, It'd be cool to see the car.

also very interested to see the oil cooler setup...i was staring at my car yesterday and wondering why no one has used a wide short cooler and mounted it on top of the intercooler...im probably missing a good reason.
