Re: Mark's Evo IX MR Winter Projects

A little update:

I completed the oil lines for turbo. I primed the oiling system while the timing belt was off the motor, installed a new timing belt and completed the front of the engine. Filled the trans with fluid. I installed Avid racings poly motor and trans mounts offering, they look great but the passenger side mount raises the engine up about ¼” of an inch. So I fabricated a 1/4” spacer to account for the design flaw. I cannot believe how much garbage companies produce without and verification & validation testing. Just a tiny bit of due diligence would make customers 100% happier. I installed the Magnus V5 and Boomba TB too.

Next steps are to fabricate a slim line fan mount on the radiator, upper intercooler pipe, intake pipe.
