Re: Evo owner new to style

More great progress today, put another ~3 hours into it.

-disassembled the front brakes/hubs
-removed the front axles
-unbolted the A/C compressor
-unbolted the power steering pump
-unbolted the transfer case

The plan for next weekend is to actually get the engine and transmission out of the car, Andrew just has to go pick up the engine hoist and engine stand first.

Good luck Andrew!

And I ran in excess of 30PSI on the stock turbo daily for 50,000 miles on E85. The last 14K miles were on an FP Red around 34PSI and I eventually spun a bearing.

And for the record that ex manifold may be in fact cursed but it worked well on my car. I removed it a few short weeks before I spun a bearing.


Be sure and update us with progress!

Re: Evo owner new to style

Okay with the help from Chris and our good friend Laramie the Mercedes mechanic we successfully removed the engine and trans from the car and took the trans off the engine. What carnage was revealed two massive holes as well as a hole in the transfer case where the rod slapped up against it. Hoping just a new cover is needed on the transfer case! Pics to follow as well as a build thread with lots of pics including CARNAGE!!!!!
