Nice looking EVO 3, eh?

Hmmm, the exhaust goes through the door, and there's no intercooler... :odd:

Wait a second...

Engine's been flipped backwards, you can see the intake manifold. That means the turbo's close to the firewall, which could cause a problem with heat...

Looks like a nice turbo manifold, too. Can't seem to see the turbocharger, however.

Ahh, there it is... inside the cabin, where the glovebox would be! Looks like it's got a sequential tranny, too.

I wonder how loud that is... I'm not sure if it's running methanol, or if it has an air to water intercooler (the tank near the radiator seems to point out the latter)
 
Holy cow is that a rediculous Evo or what. Dam, I bet that thing is hilarious fast. But, one question, why doesn't it run an intercooler? Even though the turbo isn't close to the heat, it still would be advantageous to keep the intake air supa-chilled.

There are two possible ways to safely run a turbocharged car w/out an intercooler.

1. Low boost
or
2. Alcohol / Methanol

I'm still trying to figure out why they used such a small turbine housing, and small turbo in general.. wtf..

Tru dat! But I'd sure hope that with that killer setup he isn't running low boost. Methanol would be quite interesting to see.
 
this thread has been made officially unbrowseable for me. my modem died, you know? it´s been WAY too much. I´ll see what can I do to get all the pics!
