CBRD to the rescue!

For those of you who haven't been following my story it starts here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...g-i-guess.html

So I got my car back from CBRD and it looks great! I cannot say enough good things about them! They are fantastic and I want to thank Chad, Mark and Caleb for everything they have done for me. They let me know about the status of the car through the entire process. I ended up needing a new rad since mine had a hole in it and a new LICP since mine was hacked. They put a lot of time and effort into this car and I really appreciate that. I hope these pictures convey that. They ended up having to redo all the work the previous shop did. But the car looks and feels great!! The car even spools faster now and seems like it has more power then before! It's amazing what a little CBRD TLC can do to a car. I was telling Caleb that my idle is incredible now. Hasn't been this smooth since I got Cosworth M2s installed. Even when I have the AC blasting it's smooth as stock.

No more messy oil lines or super long boost lines.


No more conglomeration of adapters here.


How a LICP SHOULD look.


BOV recirculating and holding boost rather well.


Did someone say clearance?


I can stick my hand down in there to show off the clearance but the car was just shut off.


Whats this? A fan BOLTED onto my radiator?



New Dyno numbers on CBRD's dyno.



I can't say this enough though. It's worth the trip to take your car to CBRD. You will not be disappointed.

~Steve

Nice to see everything put right sucks to have to pay twice for something like that. But now you know where to go.

very nice!! I like that the CBRD rad allows you to use a straight silicone hose instead of the "S" style like stock

The factory radiator uses the S bent hose to provide strain relief on the radiator neck as the engine rocks forward and back. It was there for a reason.

Thanks guys. I'm really happy about it all too. I get to drive my car around without some fan hitting something and making an obnoxious noise. People no longer stare at my car because the fan is noisy. I can show off my car now
