looks good!

You may need to relocate the driver's side foglight to make the piping work (if you have foglights)

It looks like it's missing a hose coupler (easy to get though)

You may also need a j-pipe or something custom to bolt to an evo 3.

If you plan on recirculating the oem bov you may need a new hose, as the position and clocking of the flange are completely different than oem.

Can't go wrong for the price though.

It's missing one coupler and 2 clamps... Oh well.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do for a j pipe yet. As my current one is setup for a smic and is on the passenger side of the crossmember. I need one thats on the opposite side.
As for rec. the bov I will be installing a GM maft Gen2 very shortly allong with a wideband for the o2 tracing feature.

Got any close ups on the welds?  Is it possible to see any of the welds from the inside through the inlet/outlet?  Also, what diameter are the inlet/outlet of that intercooler?

Ya a full on spec, review would be good. everyone is talking about these cheap ebay kits. i can't wait for someone to find something wrong with them so i can justify spending a "G" on mine.

Yes it does. but i never had the stock fog's anyway. I'll have to fab up something once I'm done.
I pressure tested the core this morning to 35psi for about a half hour.
No leaks at all :D
The core mounted very nicely. It comes with tabs on the side's and one on the top. The tabs on the side line right up with the holes for the the fog's, so if you have the stockers they have to go. The top one lines right up with the cross member for the hood latch.
The piping's not too bad, but there is some modifications that need to be done, depending on what you have done to your car. The upper ic pipe is flanged for a 1g bov. So if you don't have one you'll have to work around it. I have a greddy type-s, luckily all i had to do is drill two holes on the flange for it to work. I also have a external dump wg, which puts the dump tube right in the path of the lower ic pipes. Ill have to re-route the dunp tube around it some how. For the J-pipe I ended up ditching the 90 that comes with the kit and using a silicone one, as i needed a tighter 90 to connect to the J-pipe.
As of right now its not yet complete. I still have to finish up the dump tube and find a way to re-cerc the bov.
