Re: (Hypothetical) Wanna buy an Evo

If the engine is legally endorsed, still can get fined for exposed intercooler? No right?
Wira if 2.0L sure cannot dy, then for the body there is also some laws, like not exceeding a certain measurement from the original....lol

Stock bumper, clean intercooler fitting is ok. But most of the time will kena stop one at roadblock. Sometimes they'll ask you to belanja boost.

The hassle of getting stop at roadblock just cause the policeman wanna know your car power etc is slightly annoying. :burnout:

Keep the stock look. No problem. Too much body kit until car lost original identity.
I drove my wira, stock front bumper gigi jongang. Pakcik no kacau so far.

Re: (Hypothetical) Wanna buy an Evo

Cheap wor.. I am very skeptical about sellers who don't show more detailed pictures. Especially since no interior pics.

4G93T still can be legal. :biggrin: But will it be an issue if the intercooler is exposed.

Intercooler install behind bumper. Little expose is ok.
Yours hidden behind licence plate.

Yup, the 2nd cheapest E7 I've ever seen in ads for the last 2 yrs or so (cheapest was at 50k for a GTA version which had been converted to manual). Well there's only 1 way to find out if it's really decent or not, isn't it? :biggrin:

Re: (Hypothetical) Wanna buy an Evo

VR4 bumper quite hard to see intercooler unlike Evo bumper.
Yup, initially my Super Saloon bumper cannot fit as the bottom slopes inwards, so after transplant have to change the bumper also. Is tuck under/inside towards the left slightly, so have to bend down to really see it. Also it is smaller....lol

Notice most family car turbo cars like Merc, BMW, Audi, Volvo, VW, Peug don't come with any intercoolers? For Malaysian weather is it sufficient, or it's bad of the turbo & engine in the long run?

Last time Merc, Audi don't do big boost on their compressor/turbos for lower spec models but nowadays we see most of the has increased the boost to gain more power with smaller engines, which in terms translate to higher stress to the engine & more heat.

You'd see Japanese Turbo cars usually...
