Correct, the hood scoop is to help cool the turbo.

Re: Evo X: Let the modding begin!

That kinda sucks in my opinion. I have grown fond of having it right up front where it's easy to work on.

Re: Evo X: Let the modding begin!

Looks like it uses a timing chain and not a belt. A decent change.

Re: Evo X: Let the modding begin!

I wonder what the change interval is on it? My conquest uses a chain, but it's a non interference motor, so Mitsu doesn't provide any change interval at all.
