Re: Evo X upgrades

Just got off the phone with Shane. Sounds like he's been busy dealing with B.S. the last few days.

He had to create a socket/tool to remove a couple of bolts related to the head -- there are a couple that don't have adequate clearance for a standard socket.

He then went to reinstall the intake manifold and snapped one of the bolts off in the head -- it appears that GrimmSpeed either got junk in the bolt holes or damaged the threads a bit when sandblasting. He had to Helicoil that one and will have to clean up the remaining threads before they can be trusted.

He had ordered some gaskets related to my turbo but Mitsu shipped them to MAP by mistake and that cost a day.

The rods and pistons are in and he said he snapped a few photos so I'll get those at some point.
