Every project car goes bye bye :). I have cars in Romania, Middle East, South America, and all over the US. I just found out my EVO VIII has hit its 3rd owner since 2003.

They got the oil cans fitted and need to start the waterlines and oillines. YPipe is almost done.

Here is a picture of the stock oil cans fitted to the GT3076. The flange is perfect, just need to slightly drill out the bolt holes to mount to the turbo. Also a pic of the intercoolers ready to go on.

Are the 997tt's rods stronger than the 996tt's. If not ........ you are walking a very fine line in terms of any real longevity.

There are already a couple people on here with this same setup, I guess we could check in with them...

cjv Feb 16, 2009 04:33 PM
