ORIGINAL: slow420a ORIGINAL: eclipsed4u if you have an intake, i would suggest that you do NOT remove the ones infront of the intake unless you have a shield that will cover the intake from rain. a couple of engines have been hydrolocked b/c the owners removed those "slots" and then rain was able to get soak the filter. just go to a junkyard and find a wrecked eclipse. |
RE: 3 out of 4 ain't bad, or is it?!
well even if water went past the filter enough of it will evapotate long before it got into the motor. unless your completely under water. here is the fix for that... when there is enough rain dont be lazy just remove the extention pipe and use it as a short raim I did it for years never once had a problem just carry a screw driver and take 5 minutes and your golden.
Just remove all of the vents it looks better. here is my 00 GS with them out and the hole trimmed so the slot for the tab was shaved out [IMG]local://upfiles/3652/4B2C5D79EA9A454EB70B40E6BA33D0A2.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]local://upfiles/3652/01621B5E4D374C6DBC0E41CB5DDAD398.jpg[/IMG] |

that would actually be great if you had a SMIC there. is that a custom kit? mod list?

ORIGINAL: eclipsed4u that would actually be great if you had a SMIC there. is that a custom kit? mod list? imported from japan EVO VII Twin scroll 16G\Manifold\o2 housing custom intake 3in turbo back SAFCII FMIC 525cc injectors 190 fuel pump centerforce 2300 clutch guages: Autometer EGT, boost, A\F Suspention: KYB's all around goldline springs 1.5 drop 18' RS limited Shinwa wheels also 15 Creager race wheels with BFG Comp T\A drag radials 235/65/15 for the fronts(never ran the car though) and a few other things I didnt keep the car after it was becoming a project to drive and maintain and it still was not very fast. And unfortinatly I never even took pics of it because I never had a camera. I was lucky enought to have these pics. Here are the rest of the Pics I have of that car, needless to say the EVO is MUCH better by far [IMG]local://upfiles/3652/61769128FBF14BCD9FBD67158F3A710D.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]local://upfiles/3652/BD889BDF96E44B39A94DDB75E8492E8D.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]local://upfiles/3652/75C20438E5BA464592A0E4160288CDFE.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]local://upfiles/3652/E148A8A03ABD406FAE7DB7A052C52F6E.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]local://upfiles/3652/06CBA74475AF447FAC8FAE8EA2664702.jpg[/IMG] |

EDIT: and i understand that a 900cfm intercooler on a t25 turbo would not be a great thing to do. but a 900cfm intercooler on a t4 would be better. moral of the story......bigger is not always better |
