That second picture looks properly good! White on white is a nice touch too! Get some more pictures up when you get the time I'm sure everyone would like to see more!

Looks stunning bud.
A true credit to your commitment and enthusiasm.

Looks great OP, though not something I would like to drive as a daily, far too laggy by the looks with nothing below 4k and then everything from there to 5k, I would prefer a more usable all rounder rather than that much HP, but it looks good and if you keep her up there in the rev range the thing is going to fly definitely old school turbo driving

Cheers it's a valid point. With it been 2ltr and such a big turbo it was going to be laggy.

We're due to change a few things on it later this year which should bring the power band in 500rpm or so quicker

Also been a 2ltr will happily rev to 8k which does help

Every little helps and all that

That's very nice and makes me want another Evo. The V is my favourite of the Evos bar the VI TME, the trouble is finding a decent one out there.

[MDifficult]

Outstanding! More pics, of everything...

[J.M.T]

Currently running quite a bit of camber

[Butter Face]

Looks great, top work and soooo clean.

That's a serious amount of camber though!

[Adz The Rat]

Very nice!

I bet that makes some suuuuuuuuuck bang noises haha

I've been following your updates on the Evolution Facebook page, such an awesome car!

Our engine specs are nearly identical, although mine is "just" running an 80 series @ 472hp. Good to know how much more my engine is capable of!

[Resolutionary]

My favourite generation Evo - executed perfectly. Well done chap!

[C70R]

Comfortably my favourite flavour of Evo, and yours looks an absolute weapon/peach. Very jealous!

Cheers buddy. That's some going for an 80 series. I presume it's a hybrid 80 series?
