my ingalls works great too. Just take it out for cold weather or when you're not at the track. No big deal.

actually cutie, there is a white evo in calgary, he bought it from saskatchewan, he brought it to the mitsu show at hyatt mits in calgary in 06. Hes also on the mitsunation forums. ITs a 2003 evo 8, the silver one in calgary is owned by "vertical" hes kinda a douche but meh.

as for Alex's evo pics:





he bought it in quebec in november. If i told you what he paid ud get mad cause he got a SMOKEN deal....espiecally considering there is only 15 in canada legally.

p.s. the way to tell evo from ralli art with kit, and the reason your wrong trebs, besides the fact ive seen the car for hours on end in person, is the fenders, no one makes a fender like that to fit a ralliart.
