Well at any rate AWD and FWD (turbos) still have the timing hump in the same spot
They're like expensive pokemon... gotta catch 'em all.

it is a FWD and i have to say i have done it purely out of  looks and  iam very happy with it   but i found out that it does  cycle the air around the engine bay and once parked the heat comes out  thrue there .  so i guess its got some use after all . more air flow never hurts right ?

its just gonna suck to keep the engine bay clean   bcause of the dirt and  other crap getting in there .

now i am kinda worried that watter will get over the electronics and where its not supose to go ..  :-\

i guess ill just drive it on sunny days :P LOL

my evo has 3 big vents in the hood from factory.  You shouldn't have a problem with getting any electronics wet on that side of the engine bay.

Yeah dude, I have to agree...that hood is fuckin' sexy. I'd do that to mine if it wasn't carbon fibre.

I didn't know you did it yourself tho...props to you!

Looks awsome dude.  As far as your fuel pump goes tho,   are you getting a check engine light?  When you turn the key to ON do you hear the fuel pump making pressure just before you start it?
