Grumbly on this forum occasionally gets batches made and sells them - might pay to ask.

cheers mate

so he is running the front exit

has he had any problems?
is he running a thermostat in it?

i take it the heater is hooked up from the rear exit to help with flow so does he leave the heater on all the time?

We don't really know to much yet as he brought the car as is and hasn't spent allot of time behind the wheel. he hasn't had any problems with it and the previous owner who did all the work didn't mention any problems. the heater doesn't need to be on to keep cool and even when driven hard the temp stays under control. We don't know if it has a thermostat in.

Sorry this car has pretty much been parked up under a cover since the day it was brought so we know very little.

One thing i do know is that even running only 12 psi this car would leave any evo that i have been in for dead. So when you ex is up and running its going to be a weapon :D
