[QUOTE="Izso, post: 1064720582, member: 2429"] That's the problem. I have : - new Mocal oil cooler, - new full leather / alcantara interior (floor mats, carpet, ceiling liner, ABC pillar, seats, door panels), - new custom prop shaft, - new wiring (including proper relay setup, wire cleanup inside and outside, replace all to high temp wires to prevent melting), - new turbo Holset HX35 housing to fit the flange properly with the manifold flange, - new Hamann rims and new PS4 tyres, - new ori BMW lower suspension bushings, - new generic central locking, - new generic alarm, - new BMW motors that controlled the fuel cap & power window, - new BMW fuel assembly, - new Elixir injectors, - new Elixir fuel rail, - new high flow Elixir fuel pump, - new body grounding, - fixed tower strut seams, - full KLAuto autofoam, - full KLAuto sound proofing, - new Ftuned suspension, - fixed aircon system with original BMW parts, - sealed off firewall holes to prevent backflow of exhaust from the downpipe, - new downpipe, - new Huper tint, - new Sunway exhaust (full), - new original Turbosmart electronic boost controller, - new original Turbosmart wastegate (1bar boost spring) that's as much as I can remember. I'm sure there's more. And after all that there's still ECU replacement (for easier tunability), re-tuning, brakes upgrade, removing of the obnoxiously large boost meter and relocate the water temp meter, replace all the bulbs in the dash, tweak the sound proofing (will go back to the autofoam guys to do this) and paint (engine bay and full interior + exterior). Oh I need to replace the tool kit in the boot too with a full set and replace rear seat belts. Budget super gone case already. But at the same time the car is almost all new, engine was rebuilt a while back in 2017. The weirdest thing is it drive damn well when it's a hot afternoon. No hi-cam idling (I have the original cams. thinking to swap back to stock), boosts damn well and drives damn well. Once it's cold like rain and all - it's a bitch to drive. I'm just getting tired of all this shit. [/QUOTE]

TT to welcome new Evo X
Guys,
my Evo X is finally delivered, since yesterday evening I'm a very happy Evo X owner. As many of you were eagerly waiting (as myself too) we thought it would be a good reason for another TT.
We're planning...
FWD gearbox for the Evo?
Errr...haha I know this might be a stupid question.
But is there a FWD gearbox that is suitable for the evo 4,5,6,etc?:rolleyes:
